Serve immediately while hot. Add cold toppings or sauces at the table to keep them crispy.
Recipe story
Croquettes were first mentioned in 19th-century French cuisine as a way to reuse leftover meat or fish. The recipe was refined by chefs like Auguste Escoffier, becoming a popular dish worldwide. In Spain, croquettes are a classic tapa, and in Japan, the shrimp version (ebi korokke) is highly appreciated.
