Croquetas de jamón ibérico offer a delightful combination of creamy, savory, and salty flavors, creating a rich and satisfying experience.
The dominant flavor is the intense, nutty, and slightly sweet taste of jamón ibérico, which infuses the creamy béchamel sauce. The béchamel provides a smooth, milky backdrop that balances the saltiness of the ham. The crispy, golden-brown crust adds a textural contrast and a hint of fried goodness.

Quality Ingredients
Use high-quality jamón ibérico for the most authentic and flavorful croquetas. The better the ham, the better the croquetas.
Béchamel Consistency
The béchamel sauce should be thick enough to hold its shape when cooled, but not so thick that it's difficult to work with. A smooth, lump-free sauce is essential.
Cooling Time
Allow the béchamel mixture to cool completely in the refrigerator before shaping the croquetas. This will make them easier to handle and prevent them from falling apart during frying.
Frying Temperature
Fry the croquetas in hot oil (around 350°F or 175°C) to ensure a crispy exterior and a creamy interior. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
