Analyzing cooking steps...
Always use fresh bread for making bread crumbs to ensure the best flavor and texture.
For dry bread crumbs, it is crucial that they are completely dry after baking to prevent moisture and allow for extended storage. If needed, leave them in the turned-off oven to cool and dry completely.
Homemade bread crumbs can be stored in freezer bags in the freezer for up to a year.
You can easily make seasoned bread crumbs by adding your favorite spices, such as oregano, thyme, garlic powder, or cayenne pepper, to the processed dry crumbs.
To make Panko-style bread crumbs from soft crumbs, spread the soft crumbs on a baking sheet and bake in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 6-8 minutes without letting them brown, then cool completely.
