Like many good things in the world of cuisine, croquettes began in a French kitchen. The name derives from croquer, which means to crunch; and of course a successful croquette has a crunchy exterior hiding the tender and flavorful contents. Croquettes are an ideal way to use leftover cooked foods. Serve croquettes with a favorite sauce for a luncheon or supper dish.
