  • Paella is - next to tortilla and tapas - Spain’s internationally most well-known dish. The original recipe comes from Valencia, which is located at the Spanish east coast. While paella is eaten all over the world, many people don’t know about its origins and the secrets that come with it.
    For example, paella takes its name from the large, flat pan which is also known as paella. Then, there’s the special rice that Valencians use to cook paella. And most important: never mix fish and meat if you want to eat an authentic paella!
    Hungry for more secrets? DW‘s Food Secrets is a series about culinary classics from Europe. We take a look at world famous dishes to find out what makes them so special and successful.

      Authentic maybe, put adding green beans before stock let alone paprika is not the system. It's a retarded way of cooking.
      Green Vegetables take minutes to cook. Rabbit and Chicken take different time to cook. Paprika should be dry toasted, then tomato/soffrito. Toast rice, add boiling stock slowly, then add in protein - vegetable if needed last minute.
      Bake in oven, hot clay surface whilst covered to create socera for final 5mins - then listen to crackling of Paella to know when done.
      Paella doesn't take hours to cook. Yes it can take up to two days if you building from making a classic Chicken stock/rem process. If you're taking more than an hour, what I ask?
      Paella is the most over rated aspect of Spanish cooking. Making Risotto is honestly more technical that Paella.

Either way I recommend making a lunch appointment a day in advance and letting them know you want paella- the dish takes time to make and you want it ready by the time you're there.

    I have two very distinct food-related memories of Spain. One was at a mountain village where I had traditional grilled meat from Spain for the first time. It was full of incredible flavors from the wood used and the Rosemary honey. It wasn't a fancy place at all, very rustic, but the view went on for miles until the coast. Impressive for me as a child.
    The second was of our neighbours, whose kids I played with, despite not knowing a word of Spanish. They invited us to a Paella (without snails) and it went on for the entire evening. They were cooking outside on a pan they had brought from home. And it was delicious. I only felt sorry for the woman tasked alone with cooking the meal and helped her stoke the fire. At least I hope I helped her.
    These are two very unusual Spain memories for me, because later on I returned and learned the language and led a more normal life. But there are these wild tastes and great traditional ways of doing things in Spain. And I'm glad to see the locals are taking pride in their cooking. It really is outstanding and all it takes is love and thyme.

    Lived in Valencia for a year. I tried so many paellas that were in the touristy areas that I just didn't find good until my teacher (who was born and raised there) took me a little further away from the city for authentic paella. It was the most excellent paella I ever had! I can't also forget that my land lady made a homemade baked version that she gave me every month when I paid rent and a family that I had met invited me to their house for backyard paella that was excellent as well! When you've had the best it's hard to take any other kind of paella seriously when it's not made by a Valencian.

    I consider this a document of great value. Having lived in Valencia most of my life and eaten at Mr.Montolius myself I approve this video. Paella is the dish you see throughout this video, anything else, are what Valencian people call "rice with..." Prawns, seafood.... but not paella, and not disregarded and frowned upon but actually it is as cherished and traditional as paella itself. These are all the rice variants from the three regions of Valencia and are as respected as the one depicted in this video. It is a touchy topic for many valencians as they saw their paella become more and more mediatic and international. And it's composition and ingredients getting distorted and twisted.

    We love our paella in Valencia.It makes me sad to see what some restaurants sell as paella around the world and even in some areas of Spain.
    I've seen paellas made with Basmati and with ingredients that don't belong there,,,
    We have to protect this great dish.

It's ok if people wan't to cook and sell dishes similar to paella, but what it's not ok it's calling those dishes "paella". It's like taking a pinnapple pizza and calling it "traditional italian pizza". That's a big lie and the problem is that a lot of restaurants do that in order to get customers. It happens to a lot of dishes, not only paella, and it sucks.

    Here in Manila, the introduced food of Paella from Spain has evolved and made its ingredients mixed with seafood and meat.
    With my family's old version, I once cooked it with my mom using the following ingredients:
    - Rice (half glutenous, half 'Denorado')
    - chicken cuts for adobo with chicken liver
    - red and green bell peppers
    - chorizo de bilbao
    - tomatoes
    - potatoes
    - curry powder
    - shrimp
    - clam (tahong)
    - green peas
    - coconut milk
    - water
    - salt
    - ground pepper
    then I cooked the mixture of glutenous and Denorado rice with coconut milk (pagsasaing) separated from all the other ingredients. As soon as the rice was cooked, we mixed it with the rest of the ingredients on a big pan, making the rice mildly stickier.

The Filipinos did exactly the same but since they are in another country, what they use and what Spain uses would be different.
