Neither especially hot nor especially spicy, the Spanish street treat known as the churro is nonethless fun and festive. The thick (sometimes potato-based) batter is extruded from a specialized device called a churrera (Andrea the Gastronaut has a picture of it in her post on the festival; it's not unlike a Play-Doh Fun Factory), then deep-fried (above).

The fried tubes are filled...

...and finally they're topped with chocolate or caramel and passed into the eager hands of waiting churro lovers!



That's me! It took me a moment realize that.
