It doesn’t fail: Easter is approaching and the word torrija seems to be on every corner. This popular dessert is a classic this time of year and admits endless variations. Today we come to talk about a surprising version that is willing to slip between our flavors favs: black beer and chocolate torrijas from the pastry shop ‘La Hermosita’.
Year after year, the expert hands of this chain of patisseries launch torrijas that are out of the ordinary (although we admit that the traditional one of our grandmothers is one of those classics that never dies). The kinder French toast, the Rocher chocolate or the toasted cream have been proposed from past editions. Of course, the recipe for this 2022 promises to sneak into the top.
According to the patisserie itself, the black beer and chocolate torrija maintains the ingredients and preparation of a lifetime, but differs from the others by incorporate an infusion based on black beer emulsified with cane sugar and honey syrup.
The result of this process? A sweet suitable for the whole familysince the beer loses its alcohol during the infusion process (an important piece of information if we have Kids lovers of new flavors in the family).
This unique torrija is presented in “limited edition” format. Exactly, there will only be 2000 units available. These will be sold in the 11 stores that the house has distributed in Madrid and Pozuelo de Alarcón from next March 22. If you are one of those who loves the avant-garde in the kitchen, you have an appointment next week.
