Bread crumbs are a staple of so many recipes. Whether it's a brocolli kugel, schnitzel, or a pot of meatballs, there always seem to be bread crumbs required. There are many bread crumbs on the market that are kosher. Most of them are high in sodium. 3 Tbsp of Jason Unseasoned Bread Crumbs are 230 mg of sodium, while the seasoned version has a whopping 370 mg. That's where our Unsalted Seasoned Bread Crumbs come into the picture.
These Unsalted Seasoned Bread Crumbs are easy to make, and can be stored in the freezer for weeks in a ziploc storage bag. You can make them in a large batch and just keep pulling out when needed. I usually make these on Sunday morning with my leftover Challah or Basic White Bread from the previous week.
I use my Cuisinart Mini Food Processor, which I love. The key word there is "mini." There is nothing worse than lugging out your huge food processor to use for one small item! You can also use a mini electronic food chopper. I use mine for dips also, so it really comes in handy often.
You don't have to use these exact spices, but these are the ones that are typical in your store-bought seasoned bread crumbs. If you want to kick it up a notch, use Smoked Paprika, or a Sriracha Spice. Flavor God has some great spices you can use, and they are all certified OU and Pareve. Just be careful, not all spices are 0 mg Sodium. The Sriracha Spice from Flavor God has 30 mg of sodium for every 1/4 Tsp. serving. Chili Powder is a spice that is higher in sodium than many other spices. Check out our list of Spices to help you choose other low sodium options that you can be added to your bread crumbs.
Of course, if you would like unseasoned bread crumbs, just leave out the spices.
