About Dried breadcrumbs

Dried breadcrumbs are a versatile pantry staple made from finely ground, toasted bread. Typically crafted from plain white or whole-grain bread, they often contain minimal ingredients such as flour, yeast, and salt. Popular in many global cuisines, breadcrumbs are used as a coating, thickener, or binder in dishes like schnitzel, meatballs, and casseroles. Originating from resourceful efforts to minimize food waste, breadcrumbs have become a key ingredient in recipes worldwide. Nutritionally, they provide carbohydrates and a small amount of protein, though their healthiness largely depends on the type of bread used; whole-grain breadcrumbs, for example, can offer added fiber and nutrients. However, their low moisture content means they may have a higher calorie density, and seasoned varieties can contain added sodium. When used in moderation and paired with nutrient-dense foods, dried breadcrumbs can enhance texture and flavor in a balanced diet.
