Superb Paella
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This Paella is much better than most I have had in restaurants. I did make a few changes that I think make the recipe better:... 1) used Better Than Bouillon chicken stock rather than make my own 2) used roasted garlic for more flavor depth and added it after the onions and rice had mostly cooked 3) used 2 tenderized Calamari steaks, cut into half inch cubes instead of the cod ? I like the flavor and texture better 4) added a can of anchovies to boost the flavor depth 5) used Basmati rice, again for the flavor 6) used a jarful of roasted red peppers rather than a fresh pepper 7) used hot linguica and skipped the hot sauce. Don?t skimp on the saffron if you want this to taste fantastic.Read more

This recipe is outrageous that it is contagious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this dish several times in the past and this recipe here is the correct way to make Paella. Although I use... Lobster and Scallops in replace of Cod Fish. Along with the Mussels,Clams and Shrimps. Enjoy... Sincerely... CalebRead more
