This Spanish paella dish is a particularly festive classic consisting of rice, vegetables and delicious meats - seasoned with fine saffron. The original paella is made with seafood and white meats - but we will find the version tailored to the kosher kitchen. This is a great dish that fills up to 5-6 persons family!
Originally paella requires saffron seasoning. Saffron is one of the rarest and most expensive spice in the world - so there's saffron substitute for those who manage to find it.
