Artisan-crafted by the renowned Antonio Tomas brand, this 1kg bag delivers authentic flavor and texture ideal for traditional paella. Quick-cooking and plant-based, it offers 10 generous servings in eco-friendly cloth packaging, making it the go-to choice for millennial foodies seeking genuine Spanish cuisine at home. ## Description Product description This short grain rice is the essential ingredient for any paella. Each bag should make about 10 generous portions of paella. The rice comes in a traditional cloth bag, which a bit like a bean bag, you can't stop holding! Each bag is individually numbered with D.O. label (Denominación de Origen or Denominacio D'origen as it written in Valenciano!!) confirming both its quality and provenance. This typical paella rice of the Bahía-Senia varieties is grown in the heart of the famous Albufera Natural Park, South-West of the city of Valencia. This amazing natural wetland is separated from the sea only by a small strip of land as has been an area of rice production since the time of the Moors. In fact it was here that paella as a dish was first eaten, taking advantage of the abundance of natural wildlife living in the park. All our rice comes from ARROCERÍAS ANTONIO TOMÁS a company founded 40 years ago. Their Santo Tomas brand is recognised today as one of the premium brands in the market. Being located within the park itself they have a privileged relationship with the farmers. This along with continual monitoring and selection ensures the best quality rice is always able to be sourced. Ingredients 100% rice Review: Ideal for Spanish rice dishes. - Bit costly but very good quality rice. Review: This rice is absolutely brilliant. I don't really let it form "the crust" ... - I don't make authentic paella but, it is a custom variation of it. This rice is absolutely brilliant. I don't really let it form "the crust" as such and tend to let it finish off the hob to make sure any remaining liquid is absorbed. No complaints from the eaters in the household. We have just ordered another bag. ## Features - High quality Bahia paella rice - Short grain and quick cooking - From Valencia region, similar to the Calasparra rice from Murcia - Artisan-made Spanish product - Buy Spanish food direct from a UK based company ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003ZVS13E | | Best Sellers Rank | 101,011 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 210 in White Rice | | Brand | Santo Tomas | | Brand Name | Santo Tomas | | Coin Variety 1 | Paella Rice | | Container Type | Bag | | Country of Origin | Spain | | Cuisine | Spanish | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 301 Reviews | | Diet Type | Plant Based, Vegetarian | | Diet type | Plant Based, Vegetarian | | Item Form | Bag | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 2.25 Pounds | | Item Weight | 1 Kilograms | | Item package quantity | 1 | | Item weight | 1 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Antonio Tomas | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Region of Origin | Valencian Community | | Specialty | suitable for vegans | | UPC | 721864671822 787269475847 | | Unit Count | 1000.0 Grams | | Unit count | 1000.0 Grams | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Santo Tomas - **Diet type:** Plant Based, Vegetarian - **Item weight:** 1 Kilograms - **Number of items:** 1 - **Unit count:** 1000.0 gram ## Images ![Bahia Paella Rice 1kg - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vYZHMy5LL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does it come with paella recipe included?** A: No but it is the best paella rice you can get!! **Q: how much rice to use for paella pan that is advertised** A: Well that depends on which pan was advertised when you wrote the question doesn't it? **Q: Do you ship to USA and if "YES", how much would the total cost be for 1 Kg bag plus shipping?** A: Good morning,Thank you for your enquiry.
