OLMEDA ORIGENES PAELLA RICE 5kg

Paella is the national Spanish dish and its flavor continues to captivate any palate which appreciates good food. The secret for a good paella lies in first and foremost the use of a high quality rice that absorbs all the taste of the dish while acquiring a pleasant texture that invites for another bite. To make things easier for you, Olmeda Orígenes Bahía-Senia Paella Rice will help you achieving that superb paella, comparable to any good Valencian paella. This rice comes from small farmers, landowners in “albufera de Valencia”, one of the richest ecosystems in Spain. The three villages of Sollana, Silla and Sueca lie close to this freshwater lagoon and locally produce our rice following the ancestral methods.

What was first brought to Spain from Asia by the Arabs, has now became an indispensable ingredient in the elaboration of this well-known gastronomic wonder. It is precisely in Valencia where we produce our very special Paella rice. The “Bahía-Senia” variety has a round grain that doubles in size when cooked. Its composition guarantees that it will acquire a creamy texture, and more importantly will completely absorb all the different flavours and subtleties of the dish. These qualities make it ideal for cooking any type of rice recipe, but especially for cooking the famous Valencian paella. 

Origin: La Albufera, Valencia.
