Paella

The favorite Spanish recipes of an American lady, who became intrigued by the many variations in the taste and cuisine of the people on the Iberian Peninsula. Spain has 17 comunidades and each one varies the preparation of food available to the Spanish housewife, and of course the famous restaurants and their equally famous chefs. These chefs and homemakers have shared their recipes with her and she now has over 100 very cherished recipes.
Diana, has visited Spain over 100 times and traveled to every community in the Iberian Peninsula to research the Spanish way to make paellas. She became convinced that in order to make a great paella a prime requirement is an authentic Spanish paellapan available on her website: http://www.buyspain.com
