Making and storing breadcrumbs...
.... Something I've never done before, and also something I've rarely
used (partly due to my wheat intolerance). Anyway, just looking for ideas mainly on storage, I've seen that many use zip-lock bags and then into the freezer. Does anyone have any better ideas for storage, or any tips of making them? I have a blender, so that the obvious way to make the crumbs. Do you add anything to your breadcrumbs? I've seen paprika mentioned in my quick bit of research. I was given a few loaves of wholemeal bread and figure I might as well use them for breadcrumbs. Oh - and how long would they keep for in the freezer? I won't be using breadcrumbs very often - mainly for stuffing, I suppose. TIA for any ideas. |

I use the ends of my ABM bread for crumbs - whirl in the food processor and store in a Rubbermaid in the freezer. I need to replenish the supply about once a week. |

Making and storing breadcrumbs...
I lay out fresh bread slices on racks and loosely lie a sheet of wax paper over the top...let them air dry until they
are dry throughout. Crumb them (I use a plastic bag and a rolling pin, or my food processor). I store them In a Ziplock in the cupboard or in a storage container. I don't season until I use them. I don't freeze them because I don't see a need for it. They last just fine in the cupboard. But they MUST be totally dry. N. |

Breadcrumbs can be used in many different ways so we don't add anything until ready to use. |

We used to toss old break into a basket so the air could get at it, rather than leaving it in a bag where it would eventually get moldy. When I had enough good hard bread I would get out the FP and whizz it down to a powder, put it into a jar or a plastic container and I could keep it for months. > > Breadcrumbs can be used in many different ways so we don't add anything > until ready to use.

I make bread crumbs (dried or fresh) with my meat grinder, by passing through just once produces a very homogeneous texture, not dust and lumps. Dried bread crumbs when stored in an airtite container will keep for many years in a cupboard, fresh won't keep more than a few days in a zip-loc unless frozen. I don't season bread crumbs until I'm ready to use them... which seasoning depends on what's being breaded. Actually I don't use much bread crumbs, old bread feeds birds, for breading I grind crackers, motza, corn flakes, etc. For meat loaf bread/crackers is the last thing I pass through the grinder. |

Less frequently, breaded chicken breasts. For green beans, put butter in a small pan, add some crumbs and toast golden brown and put that over top of the beans. |
