Gadgets & Gizmos: Better Breader

I bought the Better Breader last summer after hand breading what seemed like a zillion pounds of zucchini and squash.  I don't know about you, but I had zucchini coming out the wazoo last summer, and I suspect it will be that way again this year!  I used as much as I could fresh, then I froze shredded zucchini for Zucchini Bread, I blanch some for casseroles and stir-fry, but I still had loads to process.  My family loves fried zucchini and that's where this comes in!



The Better Breader makes breading all sorts of things, like vegetables, fish & chicken so much simpler and less messy.  All you do is remove the lid and food tray and pour your breading mix in, replace the food tray and secure the lid and then turn it upside down and flip it back over and shake it again.  The food comes out evenly breaded every time!



I would take the breaded zucchini and lay it in a single layer on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet and freeze it until solid.  Then I would pop it off and into a Ziploc freezer bag and keep them in the freezer until I was ready to use it.  It was great to be able to pull out just the right amount of fresh breaded zucchini and fry it up with our meal!



The Breader measures 17" L x 8" W x 5" H.
