Origin
Panko breadcrumbs originated in Japan. \"Panko\" is a Japanese term that translates to \"bread flour,\" and it refers to a type of breadcrumb that is made from white bread without crusts. Panko breadcrumbs are known for their light and airy texture, which is achieved by using a special baking technique. They are widely used in Japanese cuisine, particularly in dishes like tempura, katsu, and korokke. Panko breadcrumbs have also gained popularity in Western cooking and are now commonly used as a crispy coating for various fried and baked dishes.
