Los Churros son Vida – Things you should know about churros. The quest for churros can be surprisingly difficult – here is our guide.
Los Churros son Vida
As I look back on the various times i’ve spent in spanish cities and especially andalucia, one thing always stands out in my memory – the simple pleasure of savoring churros. – Churros, with their jummy crispy exteriors and soft, doughy centers, hold a unique allure. Coated in a dusting of sugar and sometimes even cinnamon, they embody the essence of comfort food. I think there is almost nothing better than some churros, palm trees, an spanish old-town and sunny weather combined.
Los churros son vida is a spanish saying and means; Churros are life. Whether enjoyed alongside a cup of thick, velvety chocolate or savored on their own, churros possess a simple yet irresistible charm. Churros make an excellent breakfast dish (or addition), alternatively they are commonly enjoyed as a snack between lunch and dinner. This reflects even in the times when churros are available, more an that when we talk about the facts.
Churros are often enjoyed for breakfast, dipped in thick hot chocolate or café con leche (coffee with milk). A lot of cafes sell churros, but there are also a lot of street vendors and commited “churrerias” which specialized in making and selling churros.
Porras and Churros
Even though churros are better known, they’re not the only tasty fingerfood. Porras often get mistaken for churros or are often being sold under the headline churro. They are a bit lighter than churros and not quite as cripsy. Porras are also a bit larger and have a similar taste and appearance as they are also golden and have a stick like shape. Recipe wise they are a bit different but as we are here to enjoy, it’s those results which matter – and they are tasty!
Since both are easy to confuse and share a lot of similarities such as being dipped an hot chocolate or dusted being dusted with something sweet or even in tastyness you can’t really go wrong here. https://www.enjoytravel.com/en/travel-news/food-and-drink/best-churros-in-spain
