Brilliant article Kiki. I'm glad they decided to give the dish a protected status, well deserved! I have never tried paella because I'm vegetarian, but I remember being on a school trip in Barcelona and finding myself in front of a huge pan filled with rice and giant dead shrimps... I was horrified 😆 my classmates didn't really know what to do either! If only teachers had taken the time to tell us about the dish and its cultural significance we'd all have been much more appreciative. That's why writing and sharing about food is so important 🙏🏼
I love it and David makes the best! The first time I had this is when I came to Spain and stayed with you two! It was the best thing I had ever ate besides the sweets 😂
I thought I had paella, but I think it was just rice with stuff. I loved this piece! I think the paella Gregg and I stumbled upon in Provence had shrimp and mussels?

I have...many times. Here is the one I was first introduced to and still make. https://www.splendidtable.org/story/2018/12/26/uncle-alphonsos-no-fuss-paella
I love the article!!!
Definitely one of my absolute favorite things to eat. And to cook (even though it can be frustrating sometimes)!
