Panko
About
Flaky bread crumbs used in Japanese cuisine as a crunchy coating for fried foods, such as tonkatsu.
Source
Panko is made from bread baked by electrical current, which yields a bread without a crust, and then grinding the bread to create fine slivers of crumb. It has a crisper, airier texture than most types of breading found in Western cuisine and maintains its texture baked or deep fried, resulting in a lighter coating.
