Measuring dried breadcrumbs by cup and by weight

Fine dried breadcrumbs weigh about 112 g per cup, roughly twice as much as panko. Store-bought crumbs are more uniform than homemade ones, so homemade breadcrumbs from fresh bread can be much lighter and softer, and a cup might weigh half as much. For consistent results in meatballs or stuffing, weigh the crumbs.
