Ham for Croquettes: what it is and characteristics

Ham croquettes are a typical and traditional delicacy of Spanish gastronomy. No matter what city you are from, you will find them in any bar in Spain. But if we leave the peninsula, things get complicated.

Our chopped ham is special for making homemade ham and béchamel croquettes. A true Spanish wonder!

It is characterized by coming from Teruel, specifically from Jamones Carbó, one of the main producers of hams and sausages in Aragon. In addition, Carbó is protected by the Teruel Denomination of Origin for its Teruel ham that you can find at Gastronomic Spain.

It is a Reserve ham with a minimum aging of 16 months in Carbó's own wineries. A perfect chopped ham to make your homemade recipes.

We are going to explain step by step how the homemade and delicious ham croquettes should be made:

1. First of all, we must start by cooking the béchamel. We put butter and extra virgin olive oil in a pan.
2. Gradually add warm milk or milk until the desired texture is achieved.
3. Add the Reserve chopped ham and let it cook for a few minutes.
4. Once cooked, we put all the dough on a tray, cover it with plastic wrap and let it cool.
5. Once the dough is cold, it is time to shape the croquettes. We take a little dough, make the desired shape (usually oval) and pass it through beaten egg and breadcrumbs.
6. We fry the croquettes in plenty of hot oil and once made we leave them on absorbent paper to remove the oil remains.
7. Finally we will have the ham and béchamel croquettes ready to be served and delight any palate.
