100% Spanish paella PEALLA
Paella, as the name suggests, is a rice with a lot of seafood. The most traditional is to add mussels, cuttlefish, and shrimps that are abundant in Spain. Of course, meat is also indispensable. The most common is chicken, and there are also rabbits. Vegetables are usually green and red sweet peppers, peas, tomatoes, and onions. When they are fried, they are fried with Spanish pepperoni CHORIZO and Paprika chili powder to make it more spicy.
If the above are not fixed, then saffron is absolutely irreplaceable. If there is no saffron, there will be no unique saffron aroma in the rice, which is definitely not authentic Spanish paella. Saffron is the most expensive material in the world. I bought a small bottle of 0.1 gram. There are four bottles in a box, which is about 50 yuan, which is more expensive than gold.
If you can’t buy rice from Spain, you can choose low-viscosity rice, but it must be wash-free. The rice in this dish must never be washed and cannot be turned.
Sprinkle some crumbled basil when eating and squeeze with lemon juice.
The authentic Spanish paella is made in a pan called PEALLA, and we can use a normal non-stick pan.

Tips
1. Seafood can be replaced with what you like, or you can add fish.
2. If paprika chili powder is not available, substitute the finest chili powder you can buy.
3. The seafood that is not easy to be cooked first, such as the cuttlefish I used today.
4. Boiled safflower garlic slices and bay leaves are also added to the rice.
5. Try to choose dry white wine as much as possible.
6. You don’t need to cover the lid when cooking, and you must not turn it over. As long as the fire is not too big, it will not be mushy.
7. You can also omit the part of the fish soup, use ready-made or use water.
8. Saffron is best used in powdered form, and it can be fried directly with chili powder without boiling.
9. You can also add some curry powder and tomato juice. Many businesses now use these two to replace saffron in order to save costs.
10. Other parts of the chicken can be used for chicken, but it is better to have fewer bones. You can also use fish and rabbit meat instead. The ones that are not easy to cook are fried in a frying pan, and the ones that are easy to cook can be directly placed on top.
11. This is the amount of 4 to 6 people, which can be increased or decreased according to actual conditions.
