Notes

Feel free to experiment with Southern ingredients like okra or peppers to add a local touch to your paella. For an authentic Southern kick, consider using a Cajun spice blend and slow-cooked meats for a depth of flavor. The key to a perfect paella lies in achieving a golden, crispy layer of rice at the bottom of the pan, known as "socarrat." Patience is key – resist the temptation to stir the rice too often. Gather your family and friends, as Southern Paella is not just a meal; it's a celebration of flavors and camaraderie. Enjoy this unique twist on a culinary classic!
