TIL!

It was delicious!

Thank you! This pastry class gave him some much-needed confidence.

Brazo de Mercedes is lemon custard wrapped in soft meringue. Not easy to make, and it didn’t come out perfectly, but it was delicious! Incredibly proud of him - he is taking a pastry class at school, and this is the result of his hard work.

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I hope for the same :)

I have no idea, tbh. This was made for his culinary class at school.

They are really easy to make if you get a churrera, it’s a plastic tube that squeezes them into the right shape. The StarBlue churrera is like $15. I’ve been using mine for years!

Yes, it’s like fried dough rolled in cinnamon sugar. Crunchy and delicious.

Thank you! My family loves them.

I’m going to have to agree.

They are so easy to make and so delicious. I’m salivating typing this, lol.

Thank you - I try to make these on slow Sunday mornings.

I’m going to rename the recipe now. Biblically Accurate Churros. Good band name, too.

RECIPE

Mama’s Easy Churros

Ingredients:

1 cup instant pancake mix

1 cup water

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon sugar

2 cups vegetable oil for frying

For the coating:

1/2 cup sugar

2 teaspoons powdered cinnamon (more if desired)

Directions:

1. Heat water and butter in a medium sized pot till the mixture comes to a boil.
2. Take the pot of water off the flame and slowly stir in the pancake mix and sugar till you get a smooth batter.
3. Pour the vegetable oil into a thick bottomed pot, and place on medium high heat. Let the oil become hot enough before you start frying your churros (350-375 F or 175-190 C). An easy way to test if your oil is ready to fry is to drop a tiny bit of batter into it. If the batter turns crispy within seconds and rises to the top, your oil is ready for frying.
4. Pour the churro batter into the churrera or a piping bag and pipe out 5- to 6-inch-long sections into the hot oil. Let the churros fry till golden brown on the bottom, then turn them over in the pan to fry them evenly all over. Once they’re golden brown on both sides, take them out and let them rest on a paper towel lined dish to blot away the excess oil.
5. Mix the sugar and powdered cinnamon in a flat dish. Roll the churros in the cinnamon sugar mix till they’re well coated.

Uni with quail egg is my absolute favorite. Such amazing flavors combined together. Looks like an amazing dinner!

What I want to do is take all the people in the comments who say they want this and ones who are disgusted by this - and then put them on a reality tv dating show. I want to see them fall in love, then we bring out the pickle dogs. It would be beautiful.

Ohio-valley style pizza

Had to look that up. Wow, that’s just sad.

Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs in Downtown Disney district, CA.

It’s a stand in downtown Disney district, which is not the park itself, it’s all the shops and restaurants from which the shuttles depart. So it’s not as crowded, but still as expensive.
