Have you ever tried the irresistible allure of Spanish churros. These golden, crispy delights are far more than just fried dough - they are a beloved culinary treasure and one of, if not the most beloved street food in Spain. Imagine sinking your teeth into a perfectly fried churro, its exterior delicately crisp while revealing a warm, fluffy interior. Drizzled generously with rich, velvety chocolate sauce or sprinkled with a shower of sugar and cinnamon, each bite is a sweet symphony of flavors and textures. So what makes churros so popular in Spain? To find out, we asked the churros themselves...

Las porras with typical Spanish chocolate is the ultimate. Others may come up with different variations but there's nothing like the original. Nothing matches a churtos o porra better than that hot hot chocolate

I hope it was because of me 🙏 I’m the owner of “Churros Jimenez” in Jakarta. We have become viral so many times and since then many Indonesians are now selling churros. This month I’ll open my first 3 franchises and are planning to expand to all Jakarta.

The hot chocolate is served in a cup because you are meant to DRINK it, not only dunk your churros in it. So you can also just ask for the hot chocolate without the churros. I have one at least once a week. Ocassionally I'll ask for the churros too. Also you can eat the churros accompanied with a coffee. Just sprinkle sugar over them. A lot of Spaniards eat the 'big brother', porras, with coffee for breakfast. It's very typical in Spain too.

it's funny that this is exactly the same dessert we have in Turkey called "halka tatlisi" or in my region we call it "kerhane tatlisi" which translates to brothel house dessert. Marketing is all that matters!

Wow siempre pensé que los churros se originaron en Mexico! Se comen solos con café o chocolate caliente líquido “hot chocolate” como merienda o como postre, se espolvorea un poco de azúcar morena o blanca

Mexican churros usually add eggs and butter to the dough and from the video the spanish ones do not.

@camillemayers103 3 ай бұрын

The dough has eggs, milk salt and sugar in Mexico.

Churros came from the Turkiye dish Halka tatlisi, not Chinese, well Idk if Turkiye back in centuries took inspiration from a Chinese dish 🤔, but churros more look like halka

You sound resentful, why is that? Do you envy the Spaniards? You obviously do, why wouldn't you? Their country is beautiful, they're rich and their culture is wonderful, yours isn't anything like that.
