*What is Panko?
Panko is the Japanese word for bread crumbs used as a breading, and can be used a filler in things like crab cakes. The biggest difference is that panko is a coarse grind which makes them more like flakes than crumbs and they are made from bread without crusts.
Stay hungry my friend!
