What kind of fish goes into paella?

Paella (from the Valencian paella, which means 'pan' and refers to the container in which the recipe is made and which gives it its name, and this in turn from the Latin patella) is a rice-based cooking recipe, originating in what is now the Valencian Community, nowadays very popular throughout Spain and served in restaurants all over the world. In this recipe, rice is cooked together with other foods in a frying pan, usually wide and with handles. The ten basic ingredients that are generally and traditionally always used are chicken, rabbit, bajoqueta (green beans), garrofón (beans), tomato, rice, olive oil, water, saffron and salt. In addition to the above, depending on the region, ingredients such as garlic, artichoke, duck, paprika, snails or rosemary may also be used.

The consumption of paella provides energy from the carbohydrates in rice. One hundred grams of raw rice provide almost 316 calories, which becomes 123 calories when cooked. A standard portion usually contains approximately eighty to one hundred grams, and the nutritional balance comes from the use of protein from the meat and seafood included in it. A serving may contain about 450 calories depending on the ingredients, rarely more than 500 calories.

The rice grain should not be washed because it loses vitamins, mainly those in which it Excels, which are B1 and B2. Rice is low in sodium and also has very small amounts of gluten.
