someone from the way olden 7-11 days in the ‘hood just lost his mom. don’t know if you know who i mean…i wanted you to know he always asks me how you are and thinks of you often. wasn’t sure how to tell you online without mentioning his name but thought you might be able to figure it out this way…<<end sidebar>>sent it…
I looked at two brands of KFP pamko. One had potato flakes and potato starch. The other had tapioca starch, potatoes in some form, egg yolks, and some other stuff. This is from memory, so I can’t vouch for its accuracy.
Kosher L’pesach panko crumbs are available all year from several companies that make gluten free products. They use potato or tapioca starch. some use rice flour which would be a kitniyos problem. these products are not as uncommon as you think.
If they are gluten free then I guess they are really not breadcrumbs. Can anyone explain what a Panko is?
Panko=bread crumbs (in Japanese cooking)
So Panko Bread crumbs is redundant.
If they are gluten free then I guess they are really not Pankos.
Seems to have an identity crisis.WTP: not totally redundant. Panko Bread Crumbs are made specifically from white bread. As for gluten free..identity crisis…goes along with all other non-gebrokts items.
So if I follow a recipe that calls for panko crumbs (non-Pesach kind), am I missing something if I use regular bread crumbs?
Tapioca or potato starch dont have the same consistency as wheat flour. gluten free products typically use xantham gum as a binder.
are you “missing the boat” by using kosher lepesach “bread crumbs” instead of bread crumbs? from a taste perspective in my opinion, no, from a texture perspective, possibly, it depends on the recipe and the cook.
lo rainu, aino raya. go into any shoprite, stop and shop etc… you will see gluten free panko of several varieties and brands. for those who have or live with someone who has celiac (and there are many) it is reality.
iacisrmma, panko is not necessarily made from white bread. Kikkoman sells whole wheat panko (with an OU). Panko differs from standard bread crumbs in consistency — it’s flaky and crunchy. Apparently the bread from which panko is made isn’t baked with heat — it’s “cooked” with electricity.
Boy, it seems Pankos are very complicated. Goq, I only heard about them from recipes I have seen lately using them, but as you can tell, like you I had no idea what they were.
YY, what does it mean to cook with electricity? My oven is electric, is that called cooking with electricity? I usually just think of it as baking. Electricity generates heat. Do you mean zapping it with an electric current? I wonder how they could do that…WTP, they zap the dough with electricity. Check out the Youtube video “Panko Breadcrumbs: The Secrets Revealed.”
