Frozen Churros…. filled with chocolate!

We have news! Frozen churros with chocolate inside! Few recipes are as native and beloved in our country as the churro. We can call it churro, porra or lazo -depending on the latitude-, but for a long time they have accompanied us with chocolate in our winters. Although Latin American countries have also adopted this recipe and have made their own variations, it was only a few years ago that the Spanish churro began to be exported in a format that allows it to be enjoyed in warmer months, selling them frozen so that they can be easily prepared in an oven, a fryer or a toaster. In China they have their own version, called Youtiao, but it is not the same -in fact there they buy a lot of our frozen idea, also in the United States-. According to wikipedia, Ramses III himself made his own churros, but it is something that sounds a bit strange to us? Like the fact that in Granada they are called jeringos, that sounds more from other provinces, doesn’t it?

In Mariscos Apolo we commercialize products of the Maheso brand, which has more than 30 years of experience in this field (just like us). We highlight the frozen stew croquettes and the frozen cod croquettes. Yes, it is true that croquettes always win being homemade, but we can assure you that the quality levels that this brand has reached with its products are really amazing, we invite you to try them. And on the other hand, we also have Maheso frozen churros, in its version better known as ‘lazos’. Delicious and the most demanded by our customers and distributors.

The great advantage of frozen churros is that they do not require a professional fryer for this type of product (the expense of olive oil is very high) or the preparation of a master dough that you have to learn to make carefully, so any establishment can include them in the menu, with a taste and presence almost the same as the normal ones.

Chocolate-filled frozen churros

But this continues to evolve and we have to tell you about a novelty that this brand has designed and that has surprised us a lot. Frozen churros filled with chocolate, why hasn’t anyone thought of this before, if one can’t go without the other! They work just like other frozen churros, but heating the piece so that it recovers its crunchy texture also tempers the chocolate inside -of good quality-, managing to associate two flavors that we cannot separate in our mind. They are perfectly combined with a coffee in a cafeteria, or for a snack. We sell them by weight, for 6,38€ per kilo (for wholesalers or distributors, contact us and we will tell you). You have to try them! What’s next?
