Croquetas de jamon · Miami

Cuban ham croquetas with thick bechamel, breaded and deep-fried, the cocktail-hour bite served by the box at every Cuban panaderia and the bar opening at Ariete.

Croquetas crossed from Spain to Cuba in the 19th century, then to Miami after 1959. The Cuban-American croqueta differs from the Spanish original in shape (oblong, never round) and in filling, leaning lightly on smoked ham. Islas Canarias on SW 26th Street is widely defended as the city's reference; Ariete and Chug's Diner do refined versions.
