About Wholemeal breadcrumbs
Wholemeal breadcrumbs are crumbs made from wholemeal bread, which is made with flour retaining the grain's bran and germ. They range from fine to coarse and are usually brown, with a dry, crisp texture and a toasted, grain-forward flavour.
They are used as a coating for fried or baked foods, as a topping, or as a binder in mixtures. Products differ in bread recipe, crumb size, moisture and whether they are fresh or dried, so the term does not specify one uniform product.
