Paella

[Hoser]

Darn how did I miss that post. I would love to make that in my Disk Wok but I don't know what half of those ingredients are in that recipe. I will have to do some googling and hopefully my wife can help me out as she is usually good with this style of food.
This will show how clueless I am as I will have to look up the following things.
Sofrito
Bomba rice
Pimenton and saffron

costra starts to form.????

My wife loves Paella and I've never had it so I need to give this a shot in my wok this summer.

Hope this helps you out Ross:

Sofrito is just the mix of peppers and onions that you start with

Bomba rice is a special variety from Spain that absorbs large amount of water without getting all mushy on you

costra is when the water evaporates and the rice in the pan begins to for a crust...the crust is the costra.

pimenton is a sweet smoked Spanish paprika...a key ingredient in paella along with the saffron of course. Saffron....(this is your lucky day) is the most expensive spice on the planet that I know of...but a little goes a long way.

Sorry chefrob, I was trying to give the OP points and not only did I click the scales on your post, but I hit the disapprove buttom by mistake. The only way I realized it was I got a pop up that said... Thanks for dropping the reputation???
Then when I tried to give them back it said I couldn't rate a post twice.

I owe you some points big time!!!
