CrescentFresh Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Anyone have a source for Panko in the area? I want to kick up my crabcakes... Any Asian market. Harris Teeter. Whole Foods sometimes. I use saltines in my crabcakes to great effect, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monavano Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 (edited) I get them at the Asian Market next to Kingstown library.Way cheaper than the grocery store ( I believe I've gotten them both at Safeway and Giant) Otherwise, I just throw a few pieces of good old white bread in the Braun quick chop. Breaded veal for parmagiano using that and store crumbs 2 nights ago. Edited July 10, 2005 by monavano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoramargolis Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Reliable sources: Daruma in Bethesda, on Arlington and Bradley, behind the CVS. Han an Reum in Merrifield, Super G in Fairfax, Grand Mart in Seven Corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laniloa Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I can always find them at the Glover Park Whole Foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanishka Posted July 11, 2005 Author Share Posted July 11, 2005 Thanks all. I think this is a good excuse to go out to Hanh a Reum. Kind of wish I wasn't boycotting Whole Foods, but a man must stand by his principles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dente Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 You can ask for them at the counter of the merchant next to Canale's in Eastern Market. It's the place with all the raviolis in the display case. (come to think of it, it might be part of Canale's.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Anyone have a source for Panko in the area? I want to kick up my crabcakes... Any Asian market will have it CHEAP - like 1/3 the price of Whole Foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in DC Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I have just decided to make eggplant parm tonight, and the recipe calls for panko. Do you think I can get this at Giant/Safeway, or is a trip to Whole Foods or Trader Joe's in order (in which case, I may just substitute bread crumbs or matzoh meal; or, defer to another night)? World Market doesn't carry it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about Giant or Safeway as I shop there so rarely.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC in DC Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Thanks everyone. I was hoping to avoid getting into the car. Although I have not had the best luck with the Chevy Chase Giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Blume Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I have just decided to make eggplant parm tonight, and the recipe calls for panko. Eggplant parmesan really doesn't need breadcrumbs. Just sprinkle Parm on the top and dot with little pieces of butter to let a golden crust form on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPW Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Eggplant parmesan really doesn't need breadcrumbs. Just sprinkle Parm on the top and dot with little pieces of butter to let a golden crust form on its own.I was just thinking that eggplant parm may be better off with the finer grain of "regular" breadcrumbs than with panko.

DC in DC Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I was just thinking that eggplant parm may be better off with the finer grain of "regular" breadcrumbs than with panko. Thanks for the suggestion; I plan to do that if I can't get panko at the Giant. FWIW, I am following the recipe from Aug 04 Gourmet, which had a pretty high "fork" rating. (I'm not a great cook, so I tend to follow tried and true recipes.) One feature I like about Epicurious is the "comments" section, where you can find out whether you should use extra garlic, cook longer, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Blume Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Traditionally, eggplant parm has neither garlic nor breadcrumbs. Of course, personal taste matters most (cf. the Chili thread). Personally, I like using a simple tomato sauce vs. uncooked, canned plum tomatoes which others swear is more authentic. Parm only, no mozzarella, though the latter would be requisite in Naples, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grover Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Guys! I would like to tell you this: You can simply make panko without going WF or Asian market. Just put a couple of slice of bread into a food processor and push the pulse button. When this home-made panko is fried, the moisture is evaporated fast and it gives you light and crispy texture.
