Croquetas are a food that reminds me of my hometown. I grew up in New Jersey, in a city where there was a substantial Cuban-American population. I had an abudance of Cuban friends, and with that, comes delicious Cuban food! Of all my favorite Cuban dishes, croquetas are my all time fave. They're literally the perfect snack food. Crunchy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and perfectly portable. What more can you ask for?
