About Paella
According to food historian Lourdes March, paella “symbolizes the union and heritage of two important cultures, the Roman, which gives us the utensil and the Arab which brought us the basic food of humanity for centuries.” And while paella originates in Spain, it’s now enjoyed globally — particularly often in many South American countries. Paella often contains seafood, saffron, garlic, tomatoes, broth, oil, and paprika; it sometimes includes peppers, onions, carrots, and celery.
