Paella means frying pan in valencian language. "Arrós en paella" is rice cooked in a frying pan. "Paella valenciana" refers to the recipy to cook rice in a pan from Valencia (city not region). There's also "paella alicantina", la paella típica de Benidorm con espinacas y boquerones, etc. They are all "arròs en paella". Near the coast we cook rice in paella with seafood and inland they cook it with meat, mainly chicken and rabbit. Never pork or beef! Kind regards from Benidorm (Alicante).

It's not "that" dictionary, it's the DRAE written by the RAE, the Royal Academy of the Spanish language, the issue comes with some valencians being the most entitled thing on earth, they'll battle you for hours just to prove that they have the best dog excrements in Spain, and probably that the first dog shit was planted there, it's crazy how they believe anything is better and or was invented in Valencia, because they truly believe what they say, it's not a region full of internet trolls, they genuinely believe what they say, even if it's the biggest nonsense ever

[@CarlosGarcia-ek7gy]

La pizza margarita fue la primera pizza que se hizo en Nápoles 1889 y es la pizza auténtica. Por la misma regla de tres, una pizza de jamón y queso sería llamada “torta de pan con tomate, jamón y queso”. No se le podría llamar pizza ya que lleva jamon. Yo creo que habría que hacer como el menú de las pizzas: Pizza pepperoni Pizza Fiorentina Pizza marinara Pizza carbonara Etc…. --------- Paella Valenciana (original) Paella de Marisco Paella de verduras Paella de conejo y caracoles. Etc….. Bueno hay lo dejo…. 🤔

[@RiamsWorld]

The problem with calling other dishes "Arroz de pescados y mariscos" is that it is vague. You wouldn't be able to differentiate a saffron scented rice with tomato and soccarrat with seafood from say, Thai jasmine rice with fish and seafood. It's like saying you had chicken and rice. Did you have it like the Halal Guys chicken and rice or Hainanese chicken rice or was it Thai sticky rice with grilled chicken? If you're going to say it's not paella, at the very least, you should call it "Valencian seafood rice" or something to give some indicator.

[@helensid6670]

From El país: En sus orígenes, la paella llevaba rata de marjal So let's go back to the real origin of paella and make it with this "water rat" Un bocado delicioso!. [...] Las ratas de la marjal sólo comían arroz; eran plato de príncipe. No había más que verlas en el mercado de Sueca, desolladas, pendientes a docenas de sus largos rabos en las mesas de los carniceros. Las compraban los ricos; las poblaciones de la Ribera no comían otra cosa.

And that's from the time when pesticides weren't used and those animals were safe to eat. And I guess the author forgot to mention that that was right after the civil war, when food was rationed and poverty, rampant. As most everything, the dish was originally a laborers' dish that eventually evolved. And leave my hometown out of this ...

[@orestis170]

Οκ, probably overthinking this but why would you use an adjective if no other paella exists? It's superfluous. But, if other paellas exist, then you do need to use an adjective like Valenciana. If you find yourself in Valencia, then, because of the overall context, you could just use paella.

[@jmiquelmb]

Because Jose Andrés is wrong, and many people in Spain are too. I'm from one of the regions where paellas are made. It's not traditional from all Spain but specifically the Spanish Eastern Coast. Valencia is probably where they're most popular but they're also traditional from Catalonia and Mallorca. "Paella" means pan in Catalan, the native language of those regions. The word was probably adopted later in Spanish because the main term for pan in Spanish is "sartén". There's other paellas, only in Valencia there's dozens or even hundreds of recipes. Paella Alicantina has seafood, as just one of many examples. My favorite version is cuttlefish and pork, it's very popular here in Catalonia.

[@muzzymuzzy12]

Well aren't you just wrong. That is Valencian. That is not the only Paella. Here in Spain we have many different Paella.

[@jrb3440]

[@RiamsWorld]

@@AnaInTh3Sky People in Valencia are welcome to have whatever standards they want, but they can't tell the rest of the world they have to follow the standards for how they define food. The same reason people from Naples can't tell people from Chicago that deep dish pizza isn't pizza. Or people from the American South can't tell Korean Americans they can't call their food Korean Barbecue because it's not slow smoked. Italians can say it's not Neapolitan style pizza, but that's it. Jose Andres is a chef, his specialty is cooking, not linguistics. Words take on the meaning of however people use them, not just whoever claims to have "invented" it.

[@jmiquelmb]

Well, as a Spaniard that has cooked paella dozens of times and considers himself pretty good at making them, I think this is kind of a pedantic argument. First of all, the term "paella" in Spanish is a loan term from Catalan, the native language spoken in Valencia. The guy who cooks the paella in the video has a Valencian accent and he probably speaks Catalan (the Valencian dialect more specifically) as a first language. In Catalan "paella" means pan. Every kind of pan is a "paella", even an egg or a steak pan. And everywhere in Spain you'll find that restaurants call every rice made with this particular pan a "paella". In my region (Catalonia, which also speaks Catalan as you can assume) it's perfectly acceptable to call "paella de mar" to a seafood rice. Or "paella de muntanya" to a meat and vegetables rice. You can also call it "arròs de mar" (seafood rice) or arròs de muntanya (meat and vegetables rice). I think the issue comes from the fact that Paella Valenciana (Valencian Paella) is specifically a chicken and rabbit paella, no seafood, no pork. So it's incorrect when many people claim that Paella Valenciana is a seafood rice dish. But it's not like Paella Valenciana is the only acceptable recipe, there's literally hundreds of rice dishes only in the Valencia region. And even the Valenciana has some variety, some people don't put rabbit and some put artichokes or snails. So there's some leeway it's not just one specific version. I like Valenciana but it's not even my favorite version. It's a bit sad that people get so worked out about one single rice dish when we have so many ones. My favorite is Paella with Cuttlefish and Pork btw.
