Dried Bread Crumbs

1. 1

   If using Italian bread, cut it into pieces.

2. 2

   Lay the bread pieces or slices in a single layer on a tray and allow to dry, uncovered, at least overnight.

3. 3

   In humid weather, it may take a day and a half.

4. 4

   The bread should be completely dry.

5. 5

   The longer the bread has dried, the finer and more uniform the crumbs and the smaller their measure.

6. 6

   Pulse the bread in a food processor.

7. 7

   Italian bread may also be grated on the smallest holes of a four-sided grater.

8. 8

   (Grating works well if the bread was left over uncut and is now too hard to cut into pieces.)

9. 9

   Sieve all crumbs to get rid of overly large ones.

10. 10

    Store in a brown papernot plasticbag.
