BUTTERED BREADCRUMBS
Buttered breadcrumbs can be used to top casseroles and au gratin dishes or as garnish for vegetables. For extra rich buttered breadcrumbs, double the amount of butter. This uses Soft Breadcrumbs which I posted separately. Variations: Add to taste grated parmesan cheese, minced parsley, minced toasted walnuts, toasted almonds or toasted sesame seeds.

Tips:
- Stale bread works best for making breadcrumbs. It's easier to grate and will result in a finer crumb.
- If you don't have stale bread, you can toast fresh bread in the oven until it's dry and crispy.
- To make gluten-free breadcrumbs, use gluten-free bread.
- You can use a food processor or a grater to make breadcrumbs.
- If you're using a food processor, be careful not to over-process the bread. You want the breadcrumbs to be fine, but not powdery.
- If you're using a grater, use the side with the smallest holes.
- Once you've made the breadcrumbs, you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- You can also freeze the breadcrumbs for up to 6 months.
Conclusion:
Breadcrumbs are a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They can be used as a topping for casseroles, as a binder for meatballs and burgers, or as a coating for fried foods. They're also a great way to add flavor and texture to soups, stews, and sauces. With so many uses, it's no wonder that breadcrumbs are a staple in many kitchens.
