Breaded schnitzel is an inseparable part of German cuisine and is a regular feature of many people - whether in a restaurant or homemade.

Breading turns schnitzel into a taste experience
The breading of a schnitzel depends on the ingredients used.
Some traditionally only use
breadcrumbs
, flour and eggs, others try their hand at Parmesan, cornflakes and the like.
Besides the meat, the taste of a schnitzel mainly depends on one ingredient: the breadcrumbs.
Most of them will certainly use breadcrumbs bought in the supermarket for lack of time or convenience.
In the past, the breadcrumbs were still made in-house and the difference in taste is groundbreaking.
So it's worth taking the time
to make breadcrumbs yourself
.
This is how you can easily make breadcrumbs yourself
You need:
4 to 5 rolls
1 freezer bag
1 meat tenderizer or similar
1 rolling pin
Also interesting: butter or margarine - which fat for cooking and baking?
How to proceed to make delicious breadcrumbs:
Place the rolls open at room temperature and let them dry for a day.
Then cut them first into slices and then into larger cubes.
Let these cubes dry well on a baking sheet or other flat surface for about ten days.
If that takes too long for you, you can also dry the bread cubes in the oven at 50 degrees and then cure for a day at room temperature.
Now fill the bread cubes in portions into a freezer bag and beat them up with a meat tenderizer or a pan.
Put a tea towel in between so that it is not so loud.
Once all of the cubes are crushed, you can use a rolling pin to crush them even more finely.
Then fill your homemade breadcrumbs in an airtight can and use them for schnitzel and many other delicious dishes.
You will immediately taste the difference.
You don't have the time or inclination to make breadcrumbs yourself?
Craft bakers, who still use the oven every day, often offer breadcrumbs from their own production.
