Elaboration of the paella
1. Generously oil the paella and fry the sprig of rosemary.
2. Salmorreta: Over low heat, fry the tomato, garlic and parsley. Add to a pitcher and whip.
3. Sauté the thickest vegetables FIRST (green beans and artichoke), removing them to the corners once they are fried. Continue with the rest of the vegetables, fry until lightly browned, maintaining an “al dente” consistency, remove to the corners.
4. Add oil whenever the paella needs it
5. Over very low heat, briefly fry the chopped ñora, smoked paprika and rosemary. Saute with oil until you get a paste.
6. Add the salmorreta, mix with the ñora pasta and cook until it loses most of the water
7. Add the water, season with salt, bring to a boil and add saffron and rosemary infusion.
8. Add the rice and distribute it evenly throughout the paella along with the rest of the ingredients
9. Cook until dry.
10. IMPORTANT the rice must be dry and at its cooking point.
