- Chef Katie Button from Cúrate and Button and Co. Bagels in Asheville, North Carolina stops by the Munchies Test Kitchen to demonstrate the art of making Spanish tapas with creamy, crispy chicken croquetas. Katie talks about her transition from biomedical engineering to the culinary arts, why she fell in love with tapas culture, and how to utilize a rotisserie chicken for this simple but delicious recipe.

This lady worked at El Bulli. One of the better, more accomplished cooks Munchies has had on.
And for some reason, all of my instincts are telling me not to trust her food lol
what hasn't this lady done? she's a regular chelsea clinton in the age feminism HAHA
@@shadyzbabii420 Instincts or prejudice?
Yet she's putting onion in the croquetas, that's no less than heresy over here.
She made the croquetas too solid for my taste. Croquetas should be creamy as she says, but she sidn't make them creamy. Too much chicken for too little bechamel. Use more bechamel and you can use chicken drippings instead of oil for the bechamel, or even simmer the milk in a roasted chicken carcass. And that's how you make the best chicken croquetas IMO
Yo, she explains so many useful tips while she goes. What a great teaching and informational vid!
I like to freeze the bechamel in ice trays first. Then whenever I want croquetas I just pop out a few and bread them. They're way easier to bread like that, and you can just make a ton at once. Also if you do this you can make them as creamy as you want.
My Spanish family makes these a bit different. Their technique is way more labour intensive but I feel it really makes a difference for an amazing interior. We start by making almost like a dough, slowly adding more milk and flour, then we continue to mix and fold until it becomes super thick and creamy, then we add the meat at the end before putting it in the fridge.
THANK YOU for showing the right recipe for croquetas, as a Spaniard I can appreciate your cooking method and I wish I lived close enough to visit your restaurant... I am also an admirer of José Andrés. I am going to be watching your videos, for sure. I love cooking!
@UA-cam Account who really cares? And furthermore, do YOU even care?
Teresa Travis
@UA-cam Account LOL, born and raised in Europe. What's more annoying is people pretending they know things they have no clue about.
Mmm I love Ham Croquetas. My grandmother used to make them for us.
Just made your recipe for the second time. After they’re breaded, I lay them on parchment paper on a well covered well and freeze them. I added minced two tbls red bell pepper and add 1/2 tsp smoked paprika to the mix. Classic Spanish. I defrost one for supper and pan sauté. Excellent. Thank you. Joe.
Made a similar recipe a few weeks ago. If you make these for the first time I cannot stress enough: do not go short on the refrigeration time, otherwise it’ll be a bad time.
Jose Andreas brings more good to the world! Glad he gave her a chance
Amazing! I love my moms chicken croquetas, she usually makes it for Christmas. I’m more keen on them than the turkey jaja. Also, using the croquetas as a measure of restaurant quality is a legit method. So cool that Jose Andres came over to help you! He seems like such a nice person
Love how she narrates her story while cooking
Lovely stories and a delicious recipe. Also, having the cred as a student to have Jose Andres fly out to help you open your restaurant is, in a word, amazing.
Amazing how much hate can be triggered by a croqueta 😳. Humanity is doomed.
Fantastic presentation,thank you, can’t waist to make.
Curate is one of the best restaurants I've been to! We love Asheville.
I thought she said she owned a "Spanish Topless Bar" 😂
Frankie Serrato Same 😑. Googled that shit too because I was like “huh, how does that even work??” felt retarded when the top link said “tapas”
@@TheGuerreros3 Should have stuck with the topless bar
Asheville represent!
Best restaurant in Asheville!
Curate is my favorite restaurant back home!
Those are my favorite food in the World!!!💖💖💖💖
Finally, an american cooking CROQUETAS. Awesome, good looking, traditional croquetas.
Thank You from Spain.
Yeah ya'll Spanish people don't act like Italians when it comes to food.
@@ranjanbiswas3233 muy bueno, vete a comer hamburguesas y pastel de carne. No teneis ni historia casi como para tener comidas propias.
@D Anemon So? In Spain its a traditional food, and french ones are the same as ours, but so much people make them with mashed potatoes instead of bechamel
@D Anemon Annnd "bruh", do U realize Spain was invaded by Napoleon in XIX century by the time "croquettes" were invented?
@D Anemon No, we know its a french dish, but its soooo delicious that we made it ours hahahaha
My mom makes turkey croquettes and they are the best tasting things on earth, I will post a recipe!
What is the difference between your mom's recipe and these ones? I would love to have the recipe if you are willing to share it.
Don’t bother
We had breakfast at Button. Lox was on point. Kate happened to be there and her determination was obvious, contagious for 8am. I learned you bake bagels on soaked wood planks.
Love Curate! One of our favorites when visiting western NC.
As an Spaniard I 100% approve this.
I just made this and it was absolutely amazing! Easy to make too, would highly recommend you guys to try it. The recipe is in the description box in case you are wondering.
Interesting.... Have to try....
You forgot to tell the key stage when making the béchamel which is to really cook it very slowly for a good 10 mn at super low heat and keep whisking during that time in order to remove any smell of flour . Then you get the perfect béchamel and from there as it is a base sauce you do absolutely any type of croquettes your imagination can produce !
Hi I love coming across new people and new food videos to save to my list! You are amazing ❣️ and these looked amazing and inexpensive and easy! Good video great job!
I love Curate. Everytime I'm in Asheville we stop by, but it had been awhile
What a great idea "Rotisseri chicken".👍
another way to test your oil is using a basic $2 thermometer and check that the temperature is at around 120°-135° celsius.
wow that's fuckin wild, you can use a thermometer to check a temperature?!
Happy to see you did some pretty authentic croquetas. Good work!
My favourite ones are jamon, hard-boiled egg and onion, double coated and with extra soft bechamel and the salted cod ones (bacalao, they are typically smaller and in a ball shape).
The softer the bechamel the more difficult they are to make but... the more delicious! Unfortunately with soft bechamel your ice-cream-scoop-trick won´t work tough... you need two spoons and it takes longer, but if you don't make them so often it´s absolutely worth it.
BTW onion-haters-loosers-de-secano, tortilla de patatas sin cebolla is a crime to humanity, same goes for croquetas de pollo sin cebolla.
¡verdad! The sauce itself takes so much longer too but it’s definitely worth it! I love jamón croquetas, there is a tapas bar near where I live which has the most delicious creamy madre mía croquetas ever! (mi amiga dicho son exactamente como su abuela hacía ♥️)
Typically we use "Jamón Ibérico" and we make the rouge with olive oil and just a bit of butter. The milk is normally infused with a ham bone which adds such a good flavour and we also add more milk in order to make the bechamel a little bit creamier.
Anyway, yours look good!
Ha vivido y trabajado como cocinera en España y su marido es español. Un consejo: no seas tan condescendiente.
I don't think there really is a "typical" croqueta tbh, there are soooooo many types and varieties in spain
I enjoyed watching you and learned a lot, loved your story too
Thanks for this video
I Love cooking a croquitas from Spain yummy ,
I loved the recipe it came out perfectly well
mmmmm now im hungry
Those look delicious!
Made these from Marions recipe using mashed potatoes and mince instead, omg you'll want to eat 50!
This is exactly the way we do it at the tapas place I work
I like the 'GBD' thing :D. For me, when it comes to food, almost everything that is GB is also D.
People at home who are shallow or deep frying need to keep a cup of bamboo skewers beside the stove or near by if you don't have a cooking thermometer. Use it to test the oil like she did with the piece of croquette. Same way a Chinese chef uses their wooden chopsticks to test their oil's temp.
Spanish Croquetas .... look delicious .... I want them !!! 🤤
Qué buena pinta y la chef parece muy campechana, si voy a Asheville me pasaré por su restaurante
I am going to open a small tapas bar🔥🔥
Give me more Isaac Toups, I want him now!!!!!!
easy peasy be ready by dinner
Love your honesty lol
as a person with a masters in Biomedical Engineering... I don't know how to feel about this haha
Those are some proper croquetas
The Spanish chicken nugget or chicken crab cake
Very well done. If you want to try this, skip the chicken and add cooked ham and hard-boiled eggs
Okay I have to make these! Making me miss Spain!
I want to see more of her! I'm sure she hears this all the time, but she is as cute as a Button!
Is every story about Jose Andres about what an awesome guy he is?
Everything I've heard makes him sound like the opposite of almost every boss I had cooking.
And my mom (Korean) used to make a Korean/Japanese dish called korokke (the Korean/Japanese pronunciation of croquette) that was filled with a mixture of coarse mashed potatoes and meat and prepared the same way.
Sounds tasty
Jose Andres is genuinely the nicest guy, I take him scuba diving and he's legit awesome
@@ScrappytodaMax Some people that do good things (like Andres feeding people in PR on his own dime) can still be bears to work for/with. But everyone seems to love Jose. The opposite of that saying about meeting your heroes, Jose seems like an awesome person and I would love to meet him.
@@cmac688 It is. McD's in Japan has a shrimp burger variation of the above. It tastes like bechamel/shrimp that has been panko'd and deep fried.
Perfecto
Omg I’m going to literally do this but make chicken pot pie filling and fry them up like she said at the end
Love your book. I made the ham croquetas from the book. They were fantastic. Since there were only 2 of us, I froze 1/2 of them. According to the book, you can freeze them for 1 month. I imagine I should fry them from frozen, but I am not 100% sure. I would think thawing them might make them mushy. Any suggestions?
Japan korokke
Indonesia kroket
Spain croquetas
🤔
Put a wooden spoon handle in the hot oil. If it bubbles, then your oil is ready.😊
Came here because of Pedri ❤💙
If we'd any dish more typical in Spain, is the croqueta, nobody dislike it. The recipe is nice, without weird ingredientes or steps, just the regular. Maybe the paste needs more whole milk and simmer for a few minuts, the texture will be amazing with the extra milk

the following indian movie brought me here.

The recipe is good i have try it. But i find it very salty so i balanced it by reducing the salt and add a bit sugar in it so it is more balanced.
Have you tried adding chocolate or chips?
On the recipe link it's listing 2/3 cups flour on the ingredients list but for the directions it's only saying to use 1/3 cups of flour for the bechamel. I ended up using 2/3 cups of flour for the bechemel because it was too wet only using 1/3 cup of flour. It's in the fridge right now. Is it going to come out lame?
Can the bechamel sauce be store bought or does it have from scratch?
Safe and sound
im not doing no flour so what else you got?
Como español, le pongo un 7, hay cosas que mejorar pero no me quejo y me comeria 10.
Son una puta mierda brother lo sabes lo se y lo sabemos, mucho pollo y solo tiene que saber a pollo asado, ponle jamón y frielo todo en el mismo sartén que se agarre bien y son el 10
Jose Luis Moraleda Don’t fully understand spanish. But I do know what puta and mierda mean. 😆
What was that last thing after the egg wash?
Can I freeze croquettes and frie them later?
Eugene Tetris yes, but you'll have to do the breading right before frying them.
Can these be frozen? Would it be best to freeze before frying or after?
I'm from Spain. We normally make lots of croquetas and we freeze them before frying. When you want to eat some, you just take a few out of the freezer and you fry them.
@@donlimonesioyt9644 I had a similar question, hoping maybe you have experience with this too! Would you bread them..., then freeze them single layer, THEN fry or airfry when you're ready to eat??
A kind beauty
It sounds like she's saying croquedas
Yoo, I’m, so high right now
Why don't you just scoop it when it's hot and then chill it, then shape it?
lekker, bitterballen
Croqueta or icecream 4:04
Im confused
I am Spanish, that recipe is strange. Croquetas whit pepper??
I don't see that in Spain
Pd:I like the idea of croquetas whit pepper
Edit: me english is really simple ¡¡¡help me duolingo!!!
Yo lit I ate there with my dad
made this but with less ham instead of chicken... great recipie but a bit too salty. will half salt next time thx for recipie
yes because if you use ham you don't have to put that much salt
If you use ham (jamón ibérico) you don’t need salt cos the ham is already salt
@@javierluissantosrubio6603 it was a lot too salty !! when i cut down on the salt it was fantastic
There are also fish croquetas but no body likes those, tbh the frozen ones you get is Spain are still great, after a few drinks they are the best I am told
Depends on the fish, if it's salmon of course they're amazing
@@RoundBaguette that is true yes but it is verry rare to find them in Spain with salmon
Usually made from cod, and they're delicious, don't know what you're talking about.
@@serdiezv not for someone who can't stomach fish
Alexelcapo has a better tutorial on how to make croquetas
Pero bueno, ¿qué haces aquí compañero? Contigo pipo
🌵🇺🇸Wild 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀🌵
is better with Jamon Iberico !!
If she says croquetas like that ONE MORE time
She says it perfectly wym?
shut up Ashley
The Netherlands has the best croquets it’s called “Kroket”
WilyDutch homemade or Van Dobben kroket are the best
😋👍
she seems like the scientific type or one to be a physician.
she has a masters in biomedical engineering

"Krokedas"
Fabulous video. But, I think even "las croquetas" cringe when she mispronounces the name. Wishing her continued success!
👋
How do i find a wife like this?
Why does she talk like this? Like everything ends in a question? I don't get it? Please stop?
so whats Spanish about this basic croquet?
The "as" on the end.
this is the most traditional and popular tapa among spaniards... every spanish grandma knows how to cook it. I gotta say that the most traditional are made with jamón ibérico but we make em of everything (codfish, hake, stew leftovers, mushrooms, etc)
MrTheTrollberry in the Netherlands every grandma knows how to cook pasta, doesn’t make pasta a Dutch thing. The croquettes are very much Dutch. Your guys stole the recipe during the 80 year war from my guys😱
