What are the "Torrijas"?

Torrija is a slice of bread, soaked in milk, sugar, dipped in egg and fried in olive oil until crispy and golden brown. It could be like a french toast, but it is much sweeter.

When are they cooked? Which month of the year should we eat Torrijas?

You will enjoy them particularly during the "Semana Santa" or Holy week, and fortunately one week before and after.

Why are the Torrijas so good for those with a sweet tooth?

There are several reasons:

There is not a standard shape, you will find them all different depending on the confectioner or pastry cook.
