Panko bread
crumbs originated in Japan back around
1970 and quickly became a cooking favorite,
a must have for any Japanese groceries
list.. There are many differences between
American style and Pank bread crumbs,
especially texture and density. The
American crumb coating is heavier and
denser while the Japanese crumb is much
lighter.
Panko is also
popular in many gourmet restaurants
and a favorite ingredient in
Japanese
sauces because of
its airy texture. You can buy Panko
bread crumbs online from Asian Food
Grocer.
 Nori
is one of the easiest ways to eat seaweed.
Nori seaweed is used as a garnish, wrapped
around food or rice balls, or cooked
as a condiment with tamari. The health
benefits of this great food are a topic
of great discussion today. It contains
fibers, vitamins and minerals and like
other seaweed, is a rich source of calcium,
zinc and iodine. However, anyone on
a sodium-restricted diet should be careful
because seaweed contains sodium.
