These Seasoned Breadcrumbs add extra flavour and texture to Elena's Tomato Tonnato, a fresh take on the classic vitello tonnato. 

Ingredients

  • 1/2 loaf sourdough bread

  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan

  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder

  • 3/4 tsp mustard powder

  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt

  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250F. Trim off any thick part of the crust and cut the bread into 1-in. cubes. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake until completely dry but not browned, about 1 hr.

  • Cool fully, then place in a food processor and pulse into crumbs. You want the crumbs to be roughly the same size—small but not powdery.

  • In a medium bowl, toss to combine pulsed breadcrumbs, parmesan, garlic powder, mustard powder, salt and pepper. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
