🥖 Panko Breadcrumbs 1kg – The Ultimate Crispy Coating for Every Kiwi Kitchen

Introduction: The Secret to Perfect Crunch

There’s something irresistibly satisfying about biting into food that’s golden, light, and crispy on the outside yet tender inside. Whether it’s crumbed chicken, crispy fish fillets, or vegetable fritters, achieving that perfect crunch depends on one key ingredient — Panko Breadcrumbs.

Our Panko Breadcrumbs 1kg pack brings authentic Japanese-style breadcrumbs right into New Zealand kitchens. Made from high-quality white bread baked without crusts, these coarse flakes deliver a texture that’s crispier and lighter than traditional breadcrumbs. The result? Food that stays crunchy for longer and absorbs less oil, giving you a healthier, tastier meal every time.

Perfect for restaurants, food trucks, and home cooks alike, Panko Breadcrumbs are a pantry essential for anyone who loves the texture and taste of perfectly fried or baked food.

What Are Panko Breadcrumbs?

“Panko” originates from Japan, where pan means bread and ko means flour or crumbs. Unlike regular breadcrumbs, Panko is made by processing bread into large, airy flakes before drying them. This unique structure allows them to crisp up beautifully when fried or baked.

These breadcrumbs are widely used in Asian cuisine, especially for tempura, tonkatsu, and katsu dishes, but they’ve also become a favorite in Western kitchens. Whether you’re coating schnitzel, topping casseroles, or using them in plant-based recipes, Panko Breadcrumbs provide unbeatable crunch and consistency.

Our Panko Breadcrumbs 1kg are crafted to professional-grade standards, ensuring that every flake contributes to a perfect, even coating. They have a distinctively airy, flaky structure that absorbs less oil during cooking, giving your dishes a lighter texture and more appealing crunch.

Each batch is produced from carefully baked crustless white bread, which guarantees purity and uniformity. This process ensures a clean, neutral taste that complements both savoury and sweet recipes without overpowering other ingredients.

Panko Breadcrumbs aren’t just for frying. They’re equally at home in baked and air-fried dishes, giving flexibility to modern cooks. Use them as a crispy topping on mac and cheese, gratins, or even baked seafood. They maintain their texture better than standard breadcrumbs, staying crisp longer after cooking.

Superior Crispiness with Less Oil

Unlike regular breadcrumbs that soak up oil, Panko’s light, flaky structure creates a barrier that fries up golden and crisp without excessive absorption. This leads to healthier dishes with better mouthfeel and less greasiness.

When used in baking or air frying, Panko retains a delightful crunch, offering guilt-free satisfaction to health-conscious consumers.

One of the biggest benefits of Panko Breadcrumbs 1kg is their adaptability. From Japanese classics like katsu to Kiwi favorites such as crumbed snapper, chicken strips, or roasted cauliflower bites — these breadcrumbs suit virtually any cuisine.

They also work beautifully as a topping for casseroles, pasta bakes, and gratins, adding texture and contrast that elevate simple dishes to gourmet quality.

Long-Lasting Freshness and Bulk Value

With a 1kg pack, you get excellent value and convenience. Professional kitchens can prepare large batches without running short, while home users can store it for months thanks to the resealable, moisture-proof packaging.

The bulk quantity also means less packaging waste, aligning with New Zealand’s growing sustainability goals.

With air fryers becoming a staple in Kiwi households, Panko Breadcrumbs are the perfect companion. They deliver the same crispy results as deep frying, with little to no oil required. This makes them ideal for healthier meal prep, vegetarian dishes, and modern cooking styles.
