threemeninaboatI tried Paella a few times before I went to Spain. Meh.
I tried Paella a few times in Spain and it was pretty good. Our favorite instance was when John and I were sharing one and he said, "Oh my god, the brown fish in this Paella is amazing. What kind of fish do you think it is?"
I said, "I'm pretty sure the brown fish is horse... fish."
In Denver we don't have any fresh seafood, and no one carries horse. You can get trout, and stuff flown in, and haul something out of the tank at the Asian Market, but really. So a Denver version of Paella would be a bit different.
Southwestern Paella
Spanish Olive Oil
Green Tomatoes
Green Chile
Bison, top round, 1/2 lb
Goat Stock
Veg Stock
Smoked Paprika (Spanish)
Smoked Salt
Saffron
Bomba Rice
The goat stock was plenty garlicy, I just used a bit.
Really, really good.
...I made this in a wok on a single burner on top of my drier. :)
I served it with a side of green olives, and salad of baby kale, red peppers, and aged butterkase.
John said, "I prefer purple olives to green, but since we are living under difficult circumstances...."
