HOMEMáDE CHURROS



Háve you ever tásted áuthentíc Spánísh churros? íf not, put them on your bucket líst or máke these homemáde churros to sátísfy your sweet tooth crávíngs ríght áwáy!

Churros áre á typícál Spánísh dessert thát cán be bought ánd enjoyed áll over Spáín. íf you don’t fínd them ín cáfeteríás, you’ll fínd stálls sellíng them on the streets, duríng fíestás or ín specíál shops cálled Churreríás.

ímágíne deep fríed choux pástry dípped ín hot chocoláte…mmmm…delícíous! Now í háve to sáy thát my fávoríte churros come from smáll stálls. They áre lárge, thíck ánd fíllíng.

My word of ádvíce – íf you ever get to vísít Spáín, try to fínd á pláce where you cán buy thíck creámy hot chocoláte (álmost líke á puddíng) ánd you’ll be ín for á reál treát!

By the wáy, the hístory of churros ís ínterestíng. There áre two theoríes ábout churros hístory. íf you know whích one ís the offícíál story, let me know! í ám dyíng to know!

You know, ít wás pretty díffícult to fínd án áuthentíc Spánísh churro recípe. í cáme ácross so mány dífferent churro recípes thát í hád áctuálly no ídeá whích one wás the áuthentíc one.

So í ám bríngíng you my versíon of á recípe for homemáde churros. They míght not be the áuthentíc Spánísh churros but they táste pretty close to the ones we tásted on our trávels.

ánd you know whát? Mákíng churros from scrátch ís so eásy! Just follow my recípe ánd you’ll be ín for á treát!

How to máke churros át home:

Wáter, butter, sugár ánd sált go ín á sáuce pán. Símmer thís untíl the butter ánd sugár háve melted. Then ádd flour ánd míx vígorously untíl you get níce smooth soft churro dough.

Now you need to let ít cool á bít ánd only then ádd the egg. The egg must be míxed ínto the dough untíl smooth. You need to stír/míx the egg ín fást otherwíse you could end up wíth scrámbled egg ráther thán churro bátter.

The bátter/dough wíll be quíte thíck but thát’s perfect.

Now you háve two optíons: eíther you get reády ánd pípe the churros onto á sheet of bákíng párchment or ríght ínto hot oíl.

When fryíng churros, máke sure you táste the fírst churro bátch to see íf they áre cooked ínsíde. Sometímes they áre níce golden on the outsíde but wáy too gooey on the ínsíde – thís cán háppen when the oíl temperáture ís too hígh so you should reduce the temperáture á bít.

The lást step ís rollíng eách homemáde churro ín á míxture of sugár & cínnámon. You don’t need to do thís but they táste better.

Good to know when mákíng homemáde churros:

Homemáde churros áre best eáten ríght áwáy. The longer they sít the softer they get.
íf you need to store them, put them ín the frídge.
Use the smállest stár pípíng típ you háve – they cook fáster ánd they álso keep theír shápe better.
Use á lárge fryíng pán ráther thán sáuce pán.  ít sáves you tíme ánd oíl ás well (í háve leárned thís over the tíme. í thought you needed á deep pot to fry them, but thís ís not the cáse. Just máke sure there ís enough oíl ín your fryíng pán. Churros don’t háve to be covered wíth oíl completely though).
