One of Spain's most iconic and beloved dishes! Originating from the Valencia region, paella is traditionally made with a combination of rice, saffron, vegetables, and a variety of meats or seafood. We source meat locally from Vermont!
The key to a great paella is getting the perfect crispy layer of rice at the bottom (called "socarrat"), and it's often enjoyed with a glass of sangria, hard cider or a cold beer. The dish takes its name from the wide, shallow traditional pan used to cook the dish on an openfire, paella being the word for a “frying pan”in Valencian/Catalan language. Originally, paella made in Valencia was a lunchtime meal for farmers and farm laborers. Workers would gather what was available to them around the rice fields.
Paella is not only a dish but also a wonderful cultural experience, often shared with family and friends around a table.
Your menu may include:
Our Chefs will instruct you step by step as they share their culinary knowledge and instruct proper cooking techniques to help you recreate these authentic Spanish recipes in your own kitchen
Classes are hands-on, balancing passive and active tasks to create a four-course meal. Whether you’re an experienced home cook or just looking fora fun culinary adventure, this class is the perfect opportunity to indulge inSpain’s finest dishes while learning new skills.
