Tips for Perfect Churros
• Consistency is key: The dough should be thick enough to hold its shape when piped yet smooth enough to pipe easily. If too stiff, mix in a teaspoon or two of water.
• Oil temperature: Too hot, and the churros will burn on the outside and remain raw inside. Too cool, and they’ll absorb excess oil and become greasy.
• Pipe in batches: Avoid crowding the oil to prevent temperature drops.
• Star tip: The classic ridged look comes from a star-shaped piping nozzle, which also increases crispiness by creating more surface area.
• Eat fresh: Churros lose their crispness over time. For best results, fry just before serving.
