Ham Croquetas Reviews

Spanish Serrano Ham Croquetas - these are a world away from the frozen potato affairs you find skulking at the bottom of supermarket freezers. You'll find these croquetas gracing some of the best pintxos bars in San Sebastian. These are entirely hand-made not with potato but with a thick bechamel made from the local milk of the region. Hand rolled and coated in breadcrumbs they are made using the best ingredients. In this case using 16 month cured reserva serrano ham. Making your own croquetas is great fun but this not only takes out some of the hard labour but ensure your getting the authentic croquetas experience made with top quality Spanish ingredients. They make a perfect tapas or pintxos, just deep fry from frozen in medium hot oil until golden brown on the outside or shallow fry in small batches, turning often, until a lovely, crunchy golden colour for 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve immediately. Come frozen in trays of 12 croquetas of approx. 50g each. Cook from frozen.

These really are the closest thing to what you would get in Pais Basque, In fact they are produced in a town about 10kms from where we have visited since the 80’s as kids They taste superb and are really unctuous

Excellent product. I will have to order all three again to try and decide which I like best and then again.

The croquetas are delicious. These complete the sampling of the “set” and just like the others are a superior product.

Arrived perfectly packaged and still frozen, decided to just test a couple which when the family saw what I was doing became the whole packet! Very authentic and dead easy to cook.
