I hate following instructions. Is Paella just sautéed meat and tomato rice?
I'm just gonna wing it

[Anonymous No.16301505]

Ok Wikipedia says you must cook it over a fire fueled by orange and pine, to infuse the dish with aromatic smoke.

Fuck off, what's with all the green stuff? You on a diet kid? I don't eat vegetables because I live in a first world country, we eat steak here the meal for strong, self reliant, proud STRAIGHT men. Oooooh oooh, what's wrong snowflake what I said is racist? Everything is racist now so nothing is racist. The word doesn't even mean anything anymore. Steak is the best, western civilization and the family unit is the best. I don't care if I get canceled for it, I am NOT going to kneel and I am NOT going to eat your noxious overwhelming spices. Nickel's worth of free advice for you kid: Two genders: man, woman. Two foods: steak, whisky. Play stupid games win stupid prizes, they don't teach you that in college because the democrat party canceled good old common horse sense

don't call it paella then, you can do without safron, but if you add extra flavors then it will not ressemble paella

I know traditional paella is green beans and some stupid shit. The one everyone loves though can be done with shrimp, calamary, maybe some mussle, some boneless chicken pieces here and there and that should be it, most of the flavor comes from the burnt rice at the bottom and the shellfish

Fatty meat, like sausage or chorizo. Sweat the onions and peppers in that luscious fat.
Deglaze wine/sherry (key flavor so don't skip this step)
rice goes in, get it toasty in the oil and veggies, add your stock, spices like your soaked saffron, parsley, bay leaf, sazon or whatever you're using.
Cover until done, add your seafood like mussels, prawns, etc in an appropriate amount of time towards the end. Overcooked seafood you do not want!

Paella doesn't have tomatos. The color comes from saffron or for most people even in Spain, paella colorant.

You fry the meat and/or seafood in olive oil, then add the vegetables, then the rice with the water/stock.

forget the green beans, literally make the thing worse, also forget the other green layered thing

chicken is ok, but make it boneless and small one bite chunks

what really matters is the shellfish I mentioned here:
>>16303104

just asked my parents, yes they add paprika, but don't over do it cause I've never noticed the tastes of paprika in it to begin with
>chicken stock
idk about that I'm gonna search for a good sellfish paella recipe, for the record I don't even like shellfish but it's what gives paella the flavor and I love it there, don't over think it, "valencian paella" is the original one, but the shellfish one BTFO's it severely

You look like a morbidly obese neckbeard if i had to guess. You can also buy 5 grams of cheap saffron for like 3-4 bucks. Its not as potent as the good stuff but its alarge quantity and will yield you a similar result. Use a teaspoon, or a tablespoon
