How to find your way around this category

Complete sets contain everything you need for your first paella - a pan, oil and spices, some of them rice as well. They are ideal for beginners or as a gift. Spices on their own are useful if you already own a pan and simply want to top up the ingredients - they differ according to the type of paella (traditional, Valencian, seafood). Bomba rice is the essential foundation, which does not fit into any set in larger quantities, so it is often bought separately.

For a first experience with paella, choose a complete set; for regular cooking it is more economical to buy rice and spices separately in a larger pack.

Traditional, Valencian, or seafood?

Valencian paella is the original version of the dish from the Valencia region, traditionally with chicken and rabbit meat and beans. Seafood paella replaces the meat with prawns, mussels and other fruits of the sea, often with the addition of squid ink for its characteristic black colour. The "traditional" Carmencita spice mix is a more universal blend suited to a mixed paella with both meat and seafood.
