About Bon Chef
Bon Chef Panko breadcrumbs are crafted from premium wheat with a coarse, irregular texture that absorbs less oil, resulting in lighter, crispier coatings compared to traditional breadcrumbs. Sourced for quality and consistency, they're a staple in Japanese cuisine, essential for classics like tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet), tempura (lightly battered seafood and vegetables), and katsu curry. The 1KG packs are perfect for home cooks experimenting with recipes, while the case of 10 offers unbeatable value for frequent fryers, caterers, or bulk buyers.

Use Bon Chef Panko beyond Japanese dishes too—try it on Southern fried chicken for extra crunch, coating fish fingers, or even as a topping for creamy gratins and casseroles. For best results, season your protein or veg, dip in egg wash, then press into the panko before frying in hot oil. This method locks in juices while creating a shatteringly crisp exterior.

Store in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness; once opened, transfer to an airtight container to prevent moisture absorption. With Bon Chef, you're investing in reliable performance that brings professional results to your kitchen, whether you're hosting a dinner party or meal prepping for the week.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is panko and how does it differ from regular breadcrumbs?

Panko is a type of Japanese breadcrumb made from steam-baked bread, giving it a light, flaky texture that stays crispier longer. Unlike denser British or Italian breadcrumbs, panko absorbs less oil, perfect for frying without sogginess.

How do I use Bon Chef Panko in recipes?

Lightly coat proteins or vegetables after dredging in flour and egg. Fry in hot oil at 180°C for 2-4 minutes until golden. It's brilliant for tonkatsu, shrimp tempura, or even oven-baked chicken nuggets.

What's the difference between the 1KG pack and case of 10?

The single 1KG pack suits occasional use, while the case of 10 is economical for bulk needs like family cooking or events, ensuring you never run out during a cooking session.

How should I store Bon Chef Panko?

Keep in a cool, dry cupboard away from humidity. Once opened, use an airtight jar to preserve crunchiness for up to 6 months.
