It’s a good idea to always have a supply of bread crumbs handy.
They make super crispy baked toppings and are good for binding homemade burgers and making schnitzel.

I turn all unwanted bread ends/crusts into bread crumbs and freeze until required.

Hi Jan,
Making and working with breadcrumbs sounds so easy. I’ve heard that it’s best to use bread that’s 1-2 days old. Is that true?
Hi David,
Yes, bread that is a day or two old is probably best – although you can use day old bread if that’s all you have.
