CREAMY blue crab PAELLA rice
The Blue Crab is an invasive spice in the wetlands of La Albufera lake in Valencia and in the river Ebro Delta in Tarragona-Catalonia, from the West Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico.
After the first effects of their voracious appetite shearing the native fauna, the local fishermen and cooks of both areas decided to give them a commercial outlet for their high culinary value. Currently, the blue crab is becoming a classic in the creamy paella rice dishes in many restaurants in the Valencia area and in the Ebro Delta area in Tarragona. Now you can learn how to cook a fantastic creamy paella rice with this tasty crustacean, easy to found at many Londoner fishmongers. |
