The origin of churros can be traced to the Moors who brought a dish by the name of tueles to the Spanish territories. After a slow start, the Spanish cuisine adopted the Moorish dish and incorporated their own elements like additional sugar or chocolate, naming it churros. Due to the colonial influence of the Spaniards, the dish spread across the world rather quickly.
Teules has a fascinating history that is drenched in the Moors’ influence on Spanish culture. The Moors, who were Muslims of Arab and Amazigh descent, occupied the Iberian Peninsula for nearly eight centuries, from the early 8th to the late 15th century.
During their rule, the Moors brought with them a rich culinary heritage that left a lasting impact on Spanish culture, including their cuisine.
Churros are the tastiest breakfast treat. Their crispy, golden exterior compliments their soft, fluffy interior which is a crunch you will miss once you’ve tried it.
Unlike other breakfast options, churros lift your mood, especially when dipped in rich chocolate fondant.
