Breadcrumbs

Blitz dry bread in a blender or grate using a hand grater, add your favourite herbs and spices e.g. garlic powder, paprika, oregano or a pinch of cayenne and store in an airtight reusable container or freezer bag in the freezer. Use breadcrumbs straight from frozen, to coat chicken or fish or as a tasty topping for gratins and bakes.
