Transforming Ordinary to Extraordinary – Authentic Panko

by Kym / Thursday, 26 July 2018 / Published in Blog

Competitive Panko comparisonLooking to shake things up in your professional kitchen this summer? We have just the right ingredient! Authentic Panko – that’s right, Authentic Panko.  You might think all Panko is the same because every brand you’ve tried was round with a hard firm texture.  But it is not. This mighty little Authentic Panko crumb can take an ordinary menu item and transform it into an extraordinary dish.

Authentic Panko – A tiny change can make a huge difference!

An Authentic Panko is perfect for so many different applications. From adding a light crispy texture to any pasta dish, as a mix-in for meatballs and the most popular, creating a perfect crispy coating to any protein or veggie that’s never dense or heavy.

A truly Authentic Panko is light with a delicate texture adding just the right crispy note to your dish and is the farthest thing from a hard, dense coating.  If you’ve experienced the latter, chances are you were using one of the many standard commercial Panko brands.

Beware – Not all Panko is Authentic

The perfect “light, airy, crispy” goodness that is Panko doesn’t happen by chance or good luck. It starts by using an Authentic Japanese Panko. Not all Panko is Authentic Panko, and the difference is substantial.  Standard Panko products have the potential to make food taste oily with a too hard & dense texture.

Are you using an Authentic Panko?

Standard Panko is easy to spot, if you know what to look for. Listed below are the key attributes of an authentic Panko.

  1. Large sliver shape crumb (flaky look) – many Panko brands have small round crumbs.
  2. Light airy texture – some Panko brand have large crumbs but they are very hard and dense.
  3. Authentic Panko will always be light and airy with a sliver or flaky looking crumb.

In addition to the notable visual differences above, an Authentic Japanese Panko will have a very simple, clean ingredient list:

  • Wheat Flour
  • Shortening
  • Cane sugar
  • Yeast
  • Salt

If the Panko you’re currently using doesn’t match the appearance and light airy texture described above, it’s probably not Authentic Panko. But don’t worry, toss it out and contact Upper Crust Enterprises for a free sample of Authentic Panko.
