Some paellas are served with aioli (notably black rice paella). Aioli is a term derived from Proven\u00e7al Occitan. It is a contraction of the words “alh” (garlic) and “\u00f2li” (oil). It is an emulsion made from olive oil and garlic. Eggs are often added to create a kind of mayonnaise. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is a label protecting expertise and\/or a terroir for Spanish products. It is a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) certification. These protections are obtained according to specifications for wine, olive oil, fruits and vegetables, and cheese. <\/p>\n

Valencian paella has held a “Denominaci\u00f3n de origen<\/a>” (National Designation of Origin) since 2011. Specific ingredients have been defined in this recipe. These are: “aceite de oliva” (olive oil), “pollo” (chicken), “conejo” (rabbit), “ferraura” (coconut bean), “garrof\u00f3” (Valencian white bean), tomato, “agua” (water), “sal” (salt), “azafr\u00e1n” (saffron), and “arroz” (rice). <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Piment\u00f3n is the name given to paprika in Spain. In paella recipes, a little piment\u00f3n is added to give a distinctive flavor. In Spain, there are different piment\u00f3ns, varying in heat, smoked or unsmoked. This depends on the paprika crops and production methods. Some regional piment\u00f3ns have PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) certification. In many coutnries, Ground paprika sold in supermarkets is always mild. You can use it in your preparations. <\/p>\n

The Spanish are great fans of piment\u00f3n, using it in many culinary preparations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Valencian AOC rice is a rice with a “Denominaci\u00f3n de origen<\/em>” (AOC). On the rice bags, it is marked D.O. Arroz de Valencia<\/em>. <\/p>\n

There are several varieties of rice used to make paella. There are Bomba rice, Albufera rice, and S\u00e9nia rice. Bomba rice is the most popular choice. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Bomba rice is a Valencian PDO rice. It has a “Denominaci\u00f3n de origen<\/em>” (PDO). It is ideal for preparing paella, as it resists overcooking well. It is therefore quite easy to use for paella. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

S\u00e9nia rice is a Designation of Origin (DOC) rice from Valencia. It has a “Denominaci\u00f3n de origen<\/em>” (DOC). It is highly valued for its ability to absorb the flavors of broth. It is more difficult to cook, as it cooks more quickly than Bomba rice. Therefore, it is intended for cooks with more experience in preparing paellas. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Albufara rice is a new rice variety. It is a cross between Bomba rice and Senia rice. It therefore has the two advantages offered by these types of rice: resistance to overcooking and massive absorption of broth flavors. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Saffron is the main spice in any paella! It’s the most expensive spice in the world, hence its name, red gold. Its high cost comes from its production method. It takes thousands of flowers to produce a single kilo of saffron. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Socarrat<\/em> is the rice crust that forms at the end of cooking a paella in the bottom of the pan. This is the most complicated step to achieve in preparing a paella. It results from a subtle mastery of the cooking of the rice and the power of the heat. It is recommended to increase the heat slightly at the end of cooking to obtain socarrat<\/em>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
