Let's Share A Secret!

Breading breading breading, more often than not, everyone has their own type of breading that they prefer. That standard personalized seasoned breading that nobody can steer us away from. Rock on! Here’s an idea to get you and your breading a little closer together and recycle!

So. You love your breading, can’t get enough of it, right? Every recipe that tells you how to make a breading you scoff, for you and you alone have the perfect seasoned breading.

But there’s a problem. Waste! You go through all that effort to make it just right every time (without the aid of a recipe, because, again, you made it up) and invariably you end up throwing some away, or not having enough, and the whole thing gets very frustrating. Halfway through breading pork chops, your hands are coated and sticky, there are four chops left, and the breading is gone . . . Don’t order pizza!!!

I have a solution!

Have you ever bought the cardboard flavored powdered parmesan cheese? Yeah, that one with the neat little dual speed top? Did you throw it away when it was empty? Do you get where I’m going with this . . .

The next time you have an empty container of parmesan cheese, don’t throw it away. Simply wash it out! Make a batch of your breading, and store it in the revamped parmesan container. You can even decorate it, if you’re feeling saucy. Go nuts with it! Save two or three of those handy little buggers and make a different flavored breading for each. Whenever a recipe calls for any type of breading, measure an equal part of yours and go to town.

You’ll thank me later (hopefully in the form of large stacks of non-sequential 20 dollar bills).
