All natural. Panko (pahn-ko), the Japanese breadcrumb, is coarser and lighter than ordinary breadcrumbs. When cooked, panko's color turns a rich golden brown and the texture becomes crisp and airy. These tender flakes are especially delicious when used as a coating for deep-fried seafood, or sprinkled on top of a casserole for baking. The crunchy, sweet taste of panko can substitute for any recipe requiring breadcrumbs. Product of Taiwan.
