Tres Estrellas Flour Mix for Churros
Key Features: Every box includes a free pastry bag (often called a "churrera") fitted with a fluted plastic tip to give the churros their signature ridged shape.
Yield: One 17.6 oz container makes approximately 14 five-inch long churros.
Preparation: The mix only requires the addition of boiling water. Once mixed, the dough is piped directly into hot oil for deep-frying.
