Re: Espresso Powder, Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs

I use instant hazelnut flavored coffe for the espresso powder.

For the WW crumbs, I sometimes just use WW flour or I toast some WW bread, then put it in the food processor to make crumbs.

Espresso Powder, Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs

Hi everyone,

2 Questions: What is espresso powder, which is called for in one of the ricotta crème recipes? Is it the same thing as instant espresso (for $4.89!?)?

2nd, where can you find whole wheat bread crumbs? This seems to be an important ingredient in the recipe from yesterday’s daily dish for the South Beach “Fried Chicken”. I could not find it in my local supermarket ( Teeter). They had everything else whole wheat; just not bread crumbs. Any ideas for a substitution in case I cannot find? (I guess that was 3 questions.). Thank you.

---Dont know about where you live BUT here in Canada I've never seen

WW bread crumbs for sale. I imagine you can just buy a loaf

of " legal SB " bread and make your own. As for the expresso yeah its

expensive here too but you can use instant coffee. I did when I made

the Mocha Ricotta and it worked just fine.. It didn't seem to matter

cause I threw it all in a blender anyway!!

I frequently broil lean chops, chicken breasts, etc. To keep the

moisture in and flavor them I often add flavoring salt to about a

quarter cup of wheat bran and coat them with this mix. Seems to work

just fine and I figure the little bit of bran can't hurt.

Deanne - this is dynamite if you use Montreal Smoked Meat flavoring

on chicken breasts.

You take the whole wheat bread that we are allowed and toast a couple of

pieces until they are bone dry. Put the toast in a ziplock bag and crush

them with a rolling pin. Or put the toast in your food processor and whiz

until it is crumbs.

Toast some whole grain bread and whirl it in the blender to make crumbs. Yes, instant espresso is the same as espresso powder. Can't help you with the $4.89, though :-)!
