@@joseantoniodavila2752, not at all. All countries have the kind of cuisine they can afford according to what you can get and produce. Spain is a very varied country with all kinds of climates and seas, so its cuisine (cuisines as a matter of fact, since every region has its peculiarities) is also very varied. One common caracteristic, though: since you can get all kinds of very high quality vegetables, fruits, meats, sausages and fish, spices an herbs are not much utilized, since those ingredients, when overused, hide the authentic flavors of the "real" food.
This is a wonderful recipe. I was missing several veggies and made it with canned peas, broccolini, carrots, celery, A small Yukon potato (fryed before) and asparagus. It was awesome.
I made this dish the other day with mushrooms, onions and peas because I didn't have the other veggies at home-it came out fabulous!!!! Feliz ano nuevo!!!!!!!!
I’m in love with all of your videos. Having my ancestors coming from Bilbao, I really feel like I have the ability to connect with them through your videos. THANK YOU!!
I'll have to try this. I love making paella, but this looks easier and just as tasty. Great instructions, especially about not stirring the rice too much.
Hi. I made this recipe this evening. Used Arborio rice, a bit more tomatoes, and more smoked paprika ( being a Hungarian, I don't spare the paprika :-) ). I stuck to the rest of the ingredients and the timings, though I live at 6200 Feet above see level. The dish came out perfect. The liquid DID reduce as you predicted. The ingredients, including the rice were al dente. Just the way we like it. This dish is a winner and I'll be making it on a regular basis. Thanks very much for posting! ( I'm already subscribed to your channel. )

I’m a big meat and seafood eat, but this looks fantastic. I’ve been learning Spanish cooking from you so that I’ll be able to easily cook Spanish foods when I relocate to Valencia when the pandemic is over. Thanks to you and a few other vloggers after years of struggling to make a great tortilla de patatas, I’ve nailed it. I now eat pan con tomato and sometimes add some tortilla de patatas on top to make a hearty breakfast!
In India, we have a similar dish called "biryani", and the more popular regional variants are "Hyderabadi biryani" , "Lucknowi biryani" , "Kolkata biryani" , in both veg and non-veg options. Must try, if you want the most flavourful meal. Highly popular across India and even outside India. Though will try this recipe too. Thanks. Looks yummy
I hav never made paella but I had so many amazing paella dishes in Spain. We usually visit every year and I missed Spain is cuisine so much. This recipe was easy and SO amazingly delicious!! My husband was surprised and delighted at being reminded of our adventures in our fav country in the world. Can’t thank you enough. Oh and also my toddler loved this too!
OMG! I made this for my family tonight and everyone LOVED it! My favorite dish was your Spanish VEGETABLE PAELLA using Basic Pantry Staples ... however after today, it's my number 2 dish and your Spanish Widowed Rice is now #1! Gracias y Feliz Año Nuevo!
@@SpainonaFork : KEEP YOUR good WORK & EXPOSURE/PROMOTION of SPANISH COOKING !! and CONGRATULATIONS on your IMPECCABLE ENGLISH !!! keep up your EXELENT WORK !!! CHAVAL !!!!......LOL.
This looks heavenly. I love that your dishes are simple yet wholesome and full of flavour. Many thanks for another terrific recipe Albert. Wishing you a very happy and healthy 2021.
I've made this a couple of times. It's absolutely delicious! I haven't been able to get paella rice since covid struck (uk) but rissotto rice works really well. Thank you so much Albert!
Wow again! My mom and dad would have loved this. They were inspired by all of the neighborhood food here in Utica NY. We have a great mix of cultures and love to cook and eat! thanks for reminding me of my folks and my roots
Or perhaps they grow their own and sell any extra at a market...? This is a common practice for less wealthy people throughout the world; one need only plant saffron bulbs once (about 20-30) and reap a small crop annually and the bulbs multiply!
Made this last night. Wonderful! The only change I made was to substitute orange bell pepper for red. Made the whole thing much more colorful with the green vegetables and red tomatoes.
We make vegetable pulao similar to this. It’s hard to get thyme here. Anyway Looks mouth watering, definitely will try it. Many Thanks and regards from India. 💖
I so glad I found this channel...great recipe..gonna try and share..Thank all y'all for teaching is healthier ways to cook..the spices are so great..I just hope my health improves..again thank y'all guys and gals
Claro que si! Este arroz es delicioso y tan perfecta para cada comida sin el ezpezo de carne o pescado. Cuando vivimos en Espana siempre comimos esta comida despues de la navidad y los reyes magos. Beautiful dish Albert, as always. Your cooking is exemplary. Our best to you from us here in the US. Wishing you a better 2021 than last year was. Enjoy your 12 grapes at midnight for New Years!
Smashed it again! Another hit with the family 🤗Lovely dish. I’m cooking so many of your recipes during lockdown I think I’ll have to get at T shirt 🤗❤️🏴I think you should do Spain on a Fork aprons 🤗
Love your meatless dishes or even your ones with a little meat to have with SSI dish or whatever this dish would work occasionally as a meatless meal it has wonderful vegetables and probably wonderful flavor and thank you for referring me to your listings for your paprika's and stuff I have always wondered about these and I will get several of these and try using them past Merry Christmas and two a happy New year's to you but happy holidays and thank you can't do your patron would like to I will just have to go with the freebies please keep broadcasting love you
This recipe looks delicious👌👌 and so tampting, nicely❤️ prepared & well presented thoroughly enjoyed❤️ the whole process and absolutely love the end result, looks absolutely perfect & tasty👌👌, Big thanks for share.👍👍
I have saffron threads mine are of the humble kind since they cost around $10.00 which is more then I normally spend on spices. When you live on Social Security you don’t buy the type of humble ingredients this man can afford.
Saffron isnt as expensive as people like to believe it is. His brand is 20.00 u.s. not sure where youre shopping. Mccormick has spanish saffron for under 20.00 u.s. and that gives you about 8 to 10 meals using about 15 threads a meal. You need very little.
“Humble” ingredients ... I don’t think so ... not with saffron!!! That is NOT a humble ingredient and if you think it is ... well, we gotta agree to disagree and I need to unsubscribe; doing that now. Bye!!! 👎
Albert, what a great vid! Looks healthy and delicious! I ordered one of your t-shirts I can't wait to wear it give you a shout out! I'll keep you posted! Chris.
Thanks for finding and sharing this wonderful recipe, hope you're well and had a great time over the holiday's. Plan to do this tomorrow, but I want to add some of those really tasty little shrimps, I know it won't be the same, but I can't get the thought out of my head. Thank you.
Very good presentation concerntrating on the cooking of the food and not the chef. Your expansive personality still comes through but does not dominate. Well done
Thanks Albert -This is exactly what I was looking for. I have some arborio rice and the rest of the ingredients to make this tomorrow. I would make it tonight but I already have one of your yummy potato recipes prepped and ready to cook!
I suggest frying the vegetables separately (except for the tomatoes), because if you don't, the vegetables are overcooked and soggy. Cooking them separately preserves their crunchy texture.

Saffron is a “humble ingredient”? Spanish widows must pull in a good pension. ☺
Big time, lol. 😊
XD !
Actually, "viudo" is a widower.
Or perhaps they grow their own and sell any extra at a market...? This is a common practice for less wealthy people throughout the world; one need only plant saffron bulbs once (about 20-30) and reap a small crop annually and the bulbs multiply!
Bit heartbreaking seeing it stuck to the pan?
Cooked this dish last night and it was amazing. Thanks for the recipe.

"made with humble ingredients" proceeds to break out the gourmet brand saffron lol
$47.00 for a humble ingredient. That's half my grocery bill.

Basically a vegetarian paella but without the socarrat...the crispy layer on the bottom is what makes Spanish rice so special.

I suggest frying the vegetables separately (except for the tomatoes), because if you don't, the vegetables are overcooked and soggy. Cooking them separately preserves their crunchy texture.
looks wonderful
