Spanish Salt Cod Croquetas, Hand-Made, Frozen, Tapas or Pintxos, 12 Pieces Reviews

4.7 Rating 146 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Spanish Salt Cod Croquetas - these are a world away from the frozen potato affairs you find 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 flaked salt-cod. Making your own croquetas is great fun, but this product takes out some of the hard labour and ensures you're 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. 40g each. Cook from frozen.

I have now had all of the croquettas form Basco and each time I try a new one I say "this is the best yet". The fact is they are all superb.

They disintegrated in the pan when I fried them. What was left of them tasted fine. Contacted Basco to share my disappointment, was told it must have been my fault for not frying them at the right temperature. I happen to be Spanish and have fried my share of croquetas. Missed opportunity from customer service to address my feedback in a satisfactory way.
