Authentic Panko – Simple but Significant

by Kym / Monday, 14 March 2022 / Published in Blog

Authentic Panko Applications - Compare commercial BrandsFrom appetizers all the way through to dessert, Authentic Panko is one of the hardest-working, most-versatile ingredients in a professional pantry. Unfortunately, it’s probably one of the most overlooked ingredients as well, mainly due to a few misconceptions of its capabilities. If you thought Panko was just for Japanese cuisine, think again – Panko is an over-achiever in just about any cuisine!

From texture to appearance, an Authentic Panko is a mighty little breadcrumb perfectly adaptable for any restaurant.

Traditional Authentic Panko Compared to Many Commercial Brands

There are many commercial brands of panko available, however, only a few are Authentic Japanese Panko, made using the traditional Japanese ingredients and methods. An Authentic Panko is incredibly light with a delicate texture, adding just the right crispy note to your applications. To learn about the difference between an Authentic Panko and many commercial brands, please view our video: Panko Breadcrumbs The Secrets Revealed
