How Do You Manually Make Bread Crumbs?
To manually make bread crumbs, start by slicing or tearing stale bread into small pieces. Place the bread in a food processor and pulse it until it reaches your desired texture. Alternatively, place the bread in a resealable plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush it into crumbs. You can also grate the bread using a box grater. Spread the crumbs on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes until they are golden brown and completely dry. Let the crumbs cool before using or storing them in an airtight container.
