PRODUCT: Pork Rind Panko Breadcrumbs, Gluten Free & No Carbs

Bacon’s Heir’s first product was Pork Clouds, a crunchy snack that took the classic chicharrón, or fried pork skin, and made it light and fluffy, lower calorie crisps.

The creator thought they resembled clouds on a summer afternoon; hence Pork Clouds.

Product #2 will be very welcome to those who want crunchy panko breadcrumbs without the gluten and carbs. These panko are made from pork skin.

WHAT ARE PANKO?

Panko are Japanese breadcrumbs. They are actually bread “flakes” rather than breadcrumbs.

The difference is that conventional panko breadcrumbs (made from wheat bread) are ground into tiny bits, while panko are small flakes.

Conventional panko are made from specially baked, oblong, crustless loaves. The larger and lighter flakes produced coat the food without “packing” like regular bread crumbs. They allow foods to stay crispier longer.

Panko can be used with baked or fried foods.
