      Laura in the Kitchen oh , you probably could use more chorizo and pies. Maybe some marshmallows. Or an old shoe. And cover it, stir it. And keep calling it paella. Laurita, that was some more than 'your version'. It was actually "rice with stuff".

    Damn. Even though you are VERY clear in the beginning of the video that this isn't authentic paella, this is YOUR version...people STILL found it necessary to comment about it. Unbelievable. Laura, it looks amazing. I'm going to try it in a few weeks and if all goes well I'll include it in my Christmas menu. Keep doing what you do Jersey Girl, and THANK YOU for all those wonderful recipies. I look like a freakin' culinary genius now thanks to you!

      Honestly, expecting anything different is almost naive. It's the internet - complaining is pastime here.
      Laura is better off ignoring the haters and knowing that she is indeed a fantastic cook.

Dont pay attention to the haters... jealousy is a very sad and lonely felling... Love your videos, and I think your great! :)

  • @xavisan6751
    @xavisan6751 9 лет назад +47

    Hello Laura!, I'm going to discuss if paella has chorizo or not or if you stir it or not, cause basically paella was made with products that were going to expire before people had fridges (that's the origin and usually prepared on Thursday cause usually you go on Tuesday to the market), so put whatever you want on it. My only advise it to fry the tomato sauce with the onion and garlic first, and second to get the best of safran, toast it on a pan firts on low heat for few seconds , or like my mum does make a little packet with aluminium foil with the safran inside and put it over the gas stove for 20s constantly turning it, you can hold it with your fingers. That makes to open up the safran flavour. It makes a huge difference, but be careful it burns easily. Best regards from Barcelona!

    Being a professional chef and full blooded Portuguese, I grew up making and eating paella, there are hundreds of versions of it. Paella is about the cooking technique and as far as I'm concerned she did a really good job. If you think paella is only one set of ingredients you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

    It looks delicious. That's the beauty of Paella you can put anything in it, it will taste good. If I may add something (since I have spanish origins), a good thing to do is to cook all the ingredients separately (not the rice of course), the day before or a few hours before, but let them rest in the same bowl/plate. All the flavours will mix together and it will give you an amazing taste. Apart from that your recipe is one of the best I've seen so far.

    Hi Laura.
    I'm Chloe and I live in sydney Australia. I have an Italian aunty (by marriage) her mum nonna has been teaching us girls Italian cooking. Paella is one of my favourites. Unfortunately I'm allergic to seafood :( and my husband is vegetarian (Indian) so I make a vegetarian one. Peas, capsicum (bell peppers) red and green, peas, corn, carrots, tomato, broccoli, cauliflower etc. it's super yummy. Thanks for a great recipe. Sorry for a long comment.

    Hahaha, i like the beginning segment where she warns viewers this isn't an authentic paella recipe and asking us to refrain from complaining otherwise. i read the comments and people just love to rant about it. food is food; always evolving with taste and style. its why it can be made in so many variations, otherwise, we'd all be bored with the same traditional style. with that said, i want to learn how to make this! yum!! never had spanish food so i'll start here. i wonder where to get that pan, though....

  • @aimeedipasquale4259
    @aimeedipasquale4259 8 лет назад +145

    This is HER VERSION of the recipe! if she wants to stir the rice, let her stir the rice. If she wants to mix seafood with meat, let her do it. You have never heard of surf and turf? Meat is mixed with seafood all the time and its delicious. As long as it tastes good WHO CARES?! Her channel is to share her recipes. You don't have to try them. If it doesn't look "authentic" enough for you or if it doesn't look good to you don't try it, simple as that. But don't bash someones work, especially when you haven't tried it.
    A while back Laura made braciole. My grampa is from italy and we have braciole and raviolis eveyr christmas. So i thought it would be cool to see her recipe. It was completely different from the way my family makes it. But who is to say my version is right and hers is wrong or vise versa? It's food. It adapts and changes all the time. and as long as it tastes good who cares. I just think that no one has the right to speak negatively about someone else's art and I think cooking is an art form. Art is so subjective. There are a million different ways to do it.

  • @patriciacaleromarquez1063
    @patriciacaleromarquez1063 5 лет назад +159

    Frist Congratulations because your Paella recipe it's almost perfect! I am a Spanish girl from Alicante. Alicante is one of the tree provinces of Comunidad Valenciana, Alicante is a province sister of Valencia where is the exact origin of Paella. I was quite curious of our recipe, because it is really difficult to find a proper paella restaurant even in other areas of Spain outside of Comunidad Valenciana. In fact I never eat Paella outside of the Comunidad Valenciana!!!
    I only want to let you know 3 tips, to make your recipe more perfect ;) Please don't see this as a critic, because it is not!!
    My first tip will be that after pouring the broth we never ever stir the recipe. It's forbidden!! the rice should cook in that way and never ever stir it. I don't know how to explain it but stirring means to let the rice starch go out and cooking paella it's the last thing you want to happen.
    My second tip is that the paella should not be covered while it's cooking, we covered it after turning of the stove to keep the warm for 5 minutes to let it settle down
    And finally the third tip is that I have realized traveling abroad Spain that in all the Paella recipes include chorizo. I'm not going to say that none paella version includes chorizo, that will be a lie, however there are only 2 paella versions, from a small area of Alicante province, that includes chorizo. One of them is "Arroz con costra" can be translated as "crusted rice" where after cooking the paella you pour beaten eggs and it make that crust. The second version is called "arroz al horno" where the paella is cooked in a special clay mud in the oven.
    As I already said, congratulations for your job!!
    Best,
    Pat from Spain

      Hola Laura. En español.
      Desde la tierra de la autentica Paella, Valencia ,Spain.
      Ya nada mas ver los condimentos que lleva su paella
      NUNCA CEBOLLA NUNCA CHORIZO, NUNCA PIMIENTA.
      Cuando se sofrie la carne, no se le pone agua, se baja el fuego., A su paella le falta verdura, como la judia verde plana, el garrofon. El pimiento se sofrie a tiras, las cuales se retiraran y se guardaran para decorar la paella cuando el arroz termine su cocción.
      Las gambas tambien se sofrien con la carne, y se retiraran cuando esten cocidas. Se reservaran, para el final de la cocción del arroz.
      El arroz bomba no se sofrie . Se pone cuando el agua que se le a puesto ,se transforma en caldo,al cocer todos los ingredientes(carne , verdura), cuando ese caldo, haya reducido, a punto de sal se le pone el arroz, arreglandolo para repartirlo en toda la paella. Y ya no se remueve mas. Al finalizar se le pone gambas pimiento, para decorar.
      PARA EL CALDO, NUNCA SE LE PONE CUBITOS INDUSTRIALES DE CALDO.
      Es una pena como muchos, masacran la autenticidad de nuestro plato regional, internacional.
      Por favor pido, que antes de poner barbaridades, sobre nuestra paella, se informen de la verdaderad fuentes.
      A esa forma de interpretar, no se le puede llamar paella. Lo siento, pero este plato no es eso.

    Fantastic! I am Latina and many Latinos cook the paella differently and the person who says that every region cooks the same way is a lie, chorizo is one thing that in Spain people loves to eat and goes well with the Valenciana Paella, as well it goes deliciously with seafood and chicken! If you see videos in youtube how many Spaniards do the paella differently! LOVED your recipe Laura!

So far, I've tried some of your simpler pasta dishes--carbonara, pasta alla Amatriciana (which I love, btw), and spaghetti alla puttanesca. I am definitely going to try out this paella recipe--maybe even tweek it a bit to suit my own tastes. Keep doing what you're doing!

As a Spanish person I thought, that foreigners would have a complete different version of it but nothing further from the truth, at least in your case. Originally paella comes from Valencia and it is supposed to have rabbit (dont like it) but the one with seafood is certainly my favorite!Love the part of the toasty rice, love it too myself

    Hi laura, i've been going through some of your recipes and stumbled across this one. I'm from Spain and can clearly see that your version on paella is pretty good, but i just thought i'd leave you some tips. So, in Valencia (where paella is from) there are several types of paella and don't normally mix the seafood with the meat paella. You did say right that originally paella is made with rabitt not chicken, eventhough some people DO use chicken instead (tastes nearly the same). The original paella recipe doesn't have peas but instead beanc (in the meat paella) ; the parsley is not used to add flavour but it is used for decoration.You also might want to get smaller shrimps. If you like lots of seafood on your paella just add more ,but try and keep their size to a minimum. As for the chorizo you just want the flavour not to eat pieces. A trick you do this is boil a big piece of chorizo with the chicken stock. Finally, do not move around the rice because it will prevent the rice to get the brown nearly black rice at the bottom which is normaly found in paella called ''socarras''. The rest of your paella you nailed it. You did a lot better than other recipes i've seen. (Sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes.) I hope i helped you. I got the tricks from my family's paella recipe. Me and my family are from Valencia so i hope i've helped with these traditional tricks. Laura in the Kitchen

    My mom is from Spanish decent, she approves your paella, we are making paella Sunday for mother's day.

    The brown rice at the bottom of the pan is called 'raspado'' because you have to 'raspar' which means scrape it off the pan. our village has about 100 dwellings. Go into any one of them and you will find a different version of it. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with your own version. Samuels de Espana.

      Wow, nice making up words...! The brown rice at the bottom is called socarrat , which means charred in Valencian /Catalan language (not in Spanish)

    I LOVE all your recipes. Really! I'm not gonna say what's wrong or what's not of course. A paella can be done in lots of ways. What I'm gonna say is that one of the secrets of a paella is not touching the rice. When you add the rice, you shouldn't move it until it's done. That's what all paella cooks say here. I've read before that chorizo is not used in a paella. Very true but why not? For a paella is more important the how is cooked and not actually what is inside. But that's my opinion. I personally love the seafood paella or the black rice (arròs negre) just with seafood or fish.

    • @chubbyluna4467
      @chubbyluna4467 9 лет назад

      Víctor Vilca I completely agree with you. Only stir it at the beginning after adding the stock to distribute the rice evenly on the pan then leave it until its done. This is the only way to create the socarrat (caramelized rice) in the bottom of the pan which is the essence of paella.

    • @miguelansf
      @miguelansf 9 лет назад

      Chubby Luna this is unbelievable. I've told you 10 times you cannot stir the rice, and now you're the expert saying you can just stir it at the beginning? Then why she stirs it at the end? after cooking it covered? 2 capital sins! oh lord. Epic Fail, chubs, epic fail.

    • @chubbyluna4467
      @chubbyluna4467 9 лет назад

      Our arguement only centers on adding chorizo. I've already told you that I never said that it should be stirred while cooking it! Dont change the topic. You are insisting that putting chorizo doesn't make it a paella but nevertheless 6,000 plus people liked tbis video and that is more than enough to do it justice. We will call it Paella if we want to and nothing you can do about it! Moron!

    • @chubbyluna4467
      @chubbyluna4467 9 лет назад +1

      moe s Still you cant change the fact that there are a lot of people who call this recipe a paella. Nothing you can do about it! No matter what you say, there are still more people on this planet that says this is a Paella! You are just a handful of the so called purist and traditionalist who keeps on insisting that you are the only ones who has the right to call you recipe a Paella. You wont win! Changing your so called "original" recipe has been going on for decades around the world and acceptance of naming it a Paella is everyone's right!

    • @chubbyluna4467
      @chubbyluna4467 9 лет назад

      You're the one who is pathetic. You simply cannot accept the fact that everything around you including your "authentic" paella is evolving into different versions? Well anyway no one should expect anything from Morons like you!!! Hehehe.

      @recipesdecorgardening9586 10 лет назад +3

      I am not jealous I think she did an absolute great job it looks so delish I am tempted to make it! Everyone comes out with their own version of making different recipes because depending on where you live theres ingredients you cant find. Just like by where I live in NJ up by the woods and Its so hard for me to even get ground foods like Yucca, or Spanish sweet potato which is called batata. And people don't see that so you have to work with what you can get your hands on. And I think she did an amazing job, and everyone else who has negativity to say obviously they must not cook much. And that's just my opinion. Watch someone get offended and reply.....Because people are never happy or satisfied with ANYTHING.

    • @Clara-ot6bc
      @Clara-ot6bc 10 лет назад

      Jessica Soto 100% agree. I think it's really innovative of her to alter the recipe such that it makes the shopping easier and cheaper for her instead of needing to buy expensive ingredients online and wait for some time in order to make an 'authentic' something.
