Paella Recipe FAQs
Can you freeze paella?
Yes, you can freeze paella, but it’s best enjoyed fresh. Let it cool completely first, then store it in an airtight container for up to one month. Reheat thoroughly before eating.
What rice should I use for paella?
Short-grain rice like Bomba or Calasparra is best for paella, as it absorbs flavour well without turning mushy.
What is in paella?
Paella typically includes rice, stock, vegetables, and a mix of proteins like chicken, seafood, or rabbit, along with spices like paprika and sometimes saffron.
How do I pronounce paella?
Paella is pronounced pah-AY-yah – the double “l” in Spanish sounds like a “y.”
Is paella rice the same as risotto?
Not quite – both use short-grain rice, but risotto uses varieties like Arborio which become creamier, while paella rice is drier and better for soaking up broth without becoming too soft.
How much paella rice per person?
A good rule of thumb is about 75–100 grams of uncooked rice per person.
How do you reheat paella?
To reheat paella, gently warm it in a frying pan with a splash of water or stock over medium heat. Avoid the microwave if possible, as it can dry out the rice or make it rubbery.
