churros

These are "churros" as photographed by FrancesBean and posted on flickr (where the entire set has some great food porn). I used to eat churros all the time when I was little. I think the first time I ever had one, it was at some carnival or fair, and the churro was in that familiar shape - long, narrow, ridged pipe. They were delciiously crisp on the outside, coated in cinnamon sugar, and chewy on the inside. I've even had churros that were the same, thng only from the grocer's freezer. We just popped them into the microwave oven, and after a minute, they came out piping hot.

I am not sure where they are from, because they certainly don't look like the churros I'm used to. But I wouldn't complain, as long as they taste good - fried dough drizzled with chocolate sauce and dusted with powdered sugar works for me.
