El Paeller Special Paella Stock with Seafood and Rockfish, wood-fired, 1000 g.

The secret to a delicious seafood paella

To make an excellent seafood paella, the quality of the stock is essential. This stock made from rockfish and seafood, prepared over a wood fire, brings out the authentic flavours of traditional recipes from the Spanish Mediterranean coast.

Its pronounced briny flavour and delicate smoky notes add depth to the rice and bring out the best in your paella’s ingredients.

The expertise of chef Rafa Margós

This stock is crafted under the guidance of Rafa Margós, based on a traditional recipe from the Marina Alta that has been passed down through the generations.

A selection of seafood, rock fish and vegetables forms the basis of this preparation. Salmorreta, a typical Valencian mixture made from tomato, garlic and sweet paprika, rounds off the flavours of the stock.

Two hours of preparation over a wood fire

The ingredients are first sautéed to release their flavours. The stock is then left to simmer gently over a wood fire for 90 minutes.

After this slow cooking, it rests for a further 30 minutes on the embers. This traditional process allows a rich concentration of flavours to develop and gives the stock a subtle smoky note.

The result is a richly flavoured stock, designed to bring out the full character of rice dishes.

Seafood, rock fish and vegetables

The recipe features, in particular, mantis shrimp, small fish, crab, prawn heads, onion, leek, carrot and extra virgin olive oil.

These ingredients are complemented by a traditional salmorreta, which adds a hint of tomato, garlic and sweet paprika.

The stock contains no preservatives or artificial flavourings and derives its flavour from the ingredients used and the cooking process.

What recipes can this stock be used for?

This stock is ideal for making a seafood paella, a rockfish paella or a fideuà, the Valencian speciality made with pasta instead of rice.

It is also suitable for Mediterranean rice dishes, fish soups, suquets and seafood stews.

It is a great alternative to cooking water when you want to add more seafood flavour to your dishes.

One litre, ready to use, serves 3 to 4 people

The tin contains 1 litre of stock, with a net weight of 1000 g. This quantity is generally sufficient for a dish serving 3 to 4 people, depending on the recipe chosen.

This means you can enjoy a traditional, ready-made stock without having to spend hours making your own.

How to make your paella with this stock?

Start by sautéing the ingredients for your paella in a little olive oil. Add the rice, then gradually pour in the appropriate amount of hot stock for your recipe.

Leave to cook until the rice has absorbed the stock. Its flavours of seafood, rock fish and wood fire will bring all the richness of Mediterranean cuisine to your paella.
