📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Brought over during Spanish rule and developed into its own Mexican tradition, churros are piped through a star tip and fried, then rolled in cinnamon sugar while hot. Eating them with hot chocolate for breakfast is a beloved custom, and they're a fixture at markets and street fairs.

🌆 Where it's eaten: Morning at the market: a vendor hands over freshly fried churros wrapped in paper next to a steaming pot of hot chocolate — a happy start to the day, eaten with a satisfying crunch.
