What it is
Toasted wheat crumbs are made from bread that has been dried and toasted until crisp, then ground into small pieces. This process gives them a crunchy texture and a nutty, toasted flavor. They are commonly used as a coating or a filler in various food products.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use toasted wheat crumbs primarily as a coating for fried or baked foods, such as chicken, fish, and vegetables, to provide a crispy texture. They also act as a binder or filler in products like meatballs, meatloaf, and stuffings, helping to absorb moisture and improve texture.
Health notes
Toasted wheat crumbs are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of carbohydrates and some dietary fiber. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar cereal-based ingredients. At typical consumption levels, they do not pose health concerns for most individuals.
Allergen info
Toasted wheat crumbs are derived from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. They also contain gluten.
