Why Churros deserves more attention

Churros rarely gets the international recognition it deserves. The smoky and savoury complexity is genuine, not simple, and the technique involved in using Arborio-style Bomba rice correctly takes real skill.

Spanish eating culture centres on long social meals rather than quick eating. I encountered it first in a siesta-hour lunch restaurant and that context helped me understand it properly. Cava sparkling wine is the natural accompaniment and the combination makes the case for the dish. If you haven't explored this cuisine seriously, Churros is the dish to start with.
