Notes
Storage: Store the Italian bread crumbs in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to use.
How to make bread stale: You can leave bread out on the counter for 24 hours to dry out. You can also add more fresh bread to a 200˚ F oven for 30 minutes to 1 hour to dry the bread out.
Create Dry Bread Crumbs after Crumbling: If you find that there is too much moisture in your bread crumbs, spread them on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 300˚ F oven for 5-10 minutes, stirring often. Let cool and then store.
