Ingredients

1 20-ounce loaf of white bread, crusts removed, or one loaf of Japanese shokupan

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350ºF (150ºC).
Put a few slices of bread in a food processor and pulse until the bread has turned to small flakes. Transfer the flakes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat this step until all the bread has been used.
Place the baking tray in the center rack and bake for 8 -12 minutes, until the panko is dry and still white. If the flakes are still a little moist, turn the heat off and leave the panko in the oven until it dries up.
Transfer panko to a storage bag or airtight storage container.

Notes

Keep the panko breadcrumbs in a cool dry place (refrigerate them if where you live is humid. They will keep for up to 3 months.
