If you are in Spain or you’re still researching on what you
are going to do when you get here, one of the things that you’ve undoubtedly
read about would be the delights of the gastronomy. One of the most popular
dishes is Paella. This would definitely be on your list of things to eat when
you get to Spain!
To give you a little history on the origins of Paella, It is
a Spanish rice dish which originated in Valencia in the mid-19th
century and is considered to be Valencia’s regional dish but it is popular
throughout Spain. In typical Valencia tradition the dish is made with rice,
vegetable, rabbit and chicken meat, beans, saffron, oil and seasoning. Other
paellas are also made with Seafood or there may be a combination of both.
Paella is very popular here in Salamanca and can be eaten in
restaurants by the plate or as a Tapa serving. As part of the extra-curricular
activities at Tia Tula we have cooking classes and sometimes we will have a
tutorial on Paella which the students always enjoy. I recommend when you get to
Spain or if you are already in Salamanca that you try the Paella, I’m sure that
you will love it!
