For
some, it is hard to make good breadcrumbs for baking. This recipe shows
you how.
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Remove and discard the crusts
from stale (but not moldy) bread.
Place crusts on an ungreased
baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes; about halfway through, turn them
over so they dry evenly.
Remove from oven and let cool.
Grind dried bread in an
electric blender or food processor. If you only have a small amount of bread
to crumble, place the dried bread in a plastic bag and crush it with a
rolling pin until the crumbs are the desired texture. Another way to make
larger bread crumbs is rub them on a frying screen over a piece of waxed
paper to catch them.
Dry bread crumbs stored in an
airtight container will keep indefinitely.
