Goya Codfish fritters Bacalaitos Mix 4.5 oz Pack of 3
Goya's bacalaítos mix is the shortcut to the Caribbean fritter you'd otherwise spend a day soaking salt cod for — the bacalao is already in the mix, dried and seasoned, ready to hydrate into batter.
Each 4.5 oz packet makes a batch of thin, crispy codfish fritters. This listing is a pack of three, enough for a party platter or a few rounds of merienda. Mix with water, drop spoonfuls into hot oil, fry until golden and lacy at the edges.
Common Uses: bacalaítos fritos for afternoon merienda, party trays alongside croquetas and empanadas, beach-day snacking, and quick frituras when guests arrive unannounced.
Cultural Context: Bacalaítos are Puerto Rican beachside food — sold from kioskos along Piñones, eaten standing up with a cold Medalla. Cuban households adopted them through the Caribbean exchange, and the Goya mix is what keeps the tradition alive in diaspora kitchens far from a coastline.
Pairs With: cold beer, mojo dipping sauce, hot sauce, or a squeeze of lime. Serve alongside tostones and a cold Materva.
Contains shellfish. Ships nationwide to Cuban and Puerto Rican households who don't have a corner bodega stocking the boxes.
