Spanish paella recipes have evolved to use specific equipment and ingredients which are included in this deluxe kit, allowing you make a flavoursome and authentic Spanish paella.
Using a wide-bottomed paella pan is key – it means that the rice can lie flat, and only has to be stirred once which helps develop the crispy base, or ‘socarrat’. The type of rice is also important - the Spanish paella rice triples in size during cooking, and takes on the stock’s rich flavours.
The deluxe paella kit includes traditional flavourings such as paprika and saffron. It also includes ingredients for making regional specialities, with fideo noodles for Valencian Fideuà, and squid ink for Arròs negre.
We’ve picked the top 10 ingredients at Sous Chef that are staples in chefs’ store-cupboards this year.
You’ll find ingredients from Acquerello risotto rice, lauded by Heston Blumenthal as the world’s best risotto rice, to Perello olives that fly off the shelves as quickly as we can replace them, and Forvum Chardonnay vinegar, served not only at Thomas Keller’s French Laundry but also every Nobel Prize winners’ dinner.
Everything comes packed together in one of our copper-metallic printed drawstring gift bags.
