Paella Spice Mix
These quantities are the recommendations for a 4 portion paella, so amend the quantities as per your portion size!
1. Saffron - 1/8 gram finely powdered.
2. Paprika - Hot, smoked, mild, or sweet, use 1-2 tablespoons of whichever paprika your tastebuds prefer! We have them all in different sizes!
3. Cayenne Pepper - 1/2 a teaspoon but, if you like more heat, make it a full teaspoon!
4. Garlic Powder - 2 teaspoons.
5. Salt & Pepper - 1/2 a teaspoon of pepper and a sprinkling of salt.
You also can't go wrong with a bit of rosemary or oregano!
Mix these spices in a dry mixing bowl and seal in an airtight container for multiple uses, as this will keep the spices potent.
Happy cooking!
