But if you take the crusts off a good baguette and pulse the food processor in an organized way and toast the results in a low oven, it's about the same and probably tastes less like styrofoam. Yum on the tomatoes. My sister does the same thing with smelt, if I remember correctly. Panko (Japanese breadcrumbs) is a little different: lighter, dryer, larger grade.

Should I feel like an idiot? what is panko and how does it differ from breadcrumbs (I know i could look this up but i like the way you write)? Is there a panko industry that's trying to co-opt our american dollars? Also, i like coating little tomatoes with oil and salt and breadcrumbs and roasting them and putting them in salad. a tiny crunch. yum. I’ve noticed a lot of recipes call for PANKO, which i did buy.
