Breadcrumbs are used in the kitchen for binding purposes or for breading meat, seafood, etc. You can purchase them already made or make your own with stale, dry bread.
Panko is a type of breadcrumb popular in Japanese cuisine. If you're following a gluten-free diet, many supermarkets carry gluten-free breadcrumbs. Depending on the recipe, you might also be able to substitute almond meal or flax seed (or a combination) for the breadcrumbs to reduce the carbohydrate content and up the nutrition. For example, almond meal works well for breading, while ground flax seed can help with binding.
