What it is
Jason Plain Bread Crumbs are finely ground pieces of dried bread. They are a pantry staple used to add texture and body to a variety of dishes. These crumbs are made from simple bread, without added seasonings or herbs, making them a versatile base for many recipes.

- Coating for fried foods
- Binder for meatballs
- Topping for casseroles
- Thickener for sauces
To use, you can lightly toast them in a dry pan for a few minutes to enhance their crispness and nutty flavor. They are excellent for dredging chicken or fish before frying, creating a golden and crunchy exterior. Mix them into ground meat mixtures for burgers or meatloaf to help hold the ingredients together and add a pleasing texture. Sprinkle them over baked dishes like macaroni and cheese or vegetable gratins to form a delightful, browned crust.
