Remember – flour first, then egg, then crumbs… Here’s how you can achieve both of those goals. The keys to successful breading is to make sure the food is tasty AND to make sure the breading stays on the food and doesn’t fall off during cooking. It’s this exterior breading that is so important to the finished dish, so consequently the process of breading is a very important step. Some foods are not just dredged in flour, but breaded too in order to enhance flavor and texture. For instance, sometimes we dredge meats with flour before sautéing to enhance browning and to create a crispier texture on the outside.

Dredging is a culinary technique used to coat a wet ingredient with a dry ingredient before cooking.
