Churros: a best-seller on every menu

Churros: tasty at any time of the day 

You’ve probably seen them before: these sweet tapas made from fried wheat dough. Churros have been in the Netherlands for a while now. But they are becoming more popular every year. That is not surprising. That’s because there is a place for this Spanish dough dish on every menu. Spaniards eat it for breakfast – but also into afternoon or late evening. They are therefore sold everywhere in Spain. 

Churros as a finger food or dessert 

But is the churro really an authentic Spanish dish? It is said that Portuguese navigators discovered the churro in China. This snack is still eaten there as a breakfast dish under the name youtiao. One thing is certain: the Spaniards introduced the churro to Latin America, where people quickly fell in love with the sweet snack. 

The sweet snacks are a nice addition as finger food – often combined with hot chocolate sauce. Churros are thus the perfect addition to your dessert menu. 

Classic churros or straight Churros 

Aviko has two variants in its range. The classic Churros and the straight Churros. The straight churros resemble elongated donuts, thereby making them easy to fit in a cone. The churros are suitable for a lactose-free, vegetarian, and vegan diet.
