This is the 6th edition of our cooking series, Latin Street Food, where we show you how to make Puerto Rican Bacalaitos! Bacalaitos are salt cod fritters, favorites among the beach towns of Puerto Rico, and sold by many street vendors scattered across this tropical island. When I was around ten years old, I spent the summer with my grandmother, who lived in the capital city of San Juan. She took me to various places, and it seems that everywhere we went, someone was selling bacalaitos. From the very first bite, I was hooked! For years I’ve always wanted to make a super crispy bacalaito. In this video, I show you a more traditional way, and then the super crispy version. The crispiness of the final product makes these bacalaitos unbelievable! Make it Sabroso!
