What is a panko?

Panko: the easy and quick solution to bread meat, vegetables and more!

What is Panko?

Panko is a variety of light, airy breadcrumbs made from crustless white bread, and it is particularly popular in Japanese cuisine. Today, it is used worldwide in both home kitchens and professional restaurants to provide a superior crunchy texture to various dishes.

Ways to Use It:

  • To coat meat, fish, seafood, and vegetables.

  • To create delicious cheese, vegetable, or fish croquettes.

  • To add a crunchy texture to meatballs, meatloaf, and burgers.

  • As a topping over béchamel or lasagna for an extra crunch.

What Makes Panko Irresistible?

If you love fried food but prefer it to be light, Panko is perfect for you. Its unique texture keeps the outside of fried foods incredibly crispy and fluffy while ensuring the inside remains juicy. Due to its specific production process, Panko does not absorb as much oil as traditional breadcrumbs, resulting in a dry, light, and non-greasy crust. Additionally, it is taste-neutral, so it never overpowers the natural flavour of your ingredients.

How to Use Panko

Using Blue Dragon Panko to bread your ingredients is incredibly simple:

  1. Dip your chosen ingredient into a beaten egg.

  2. Coat it thoroughly with the Panko breadcrumbs.

  3. Fry in a wok, pan, or deep fryer until it reaches a beautiful golden brown.

Panko will give your food an unforgettable, delicious, and crunchy texture!
