Excellent for paella and comes in a small burlap sak. Review: Expensive but worth it - I did think that this was a little expensive compared to £1.99 for paella rice in the supermarket, but I have to say it was worth it this time. I think most online Spanish shops charge around £10 so I’m guessing this is standard? I’ve cooked paella a few times and never has it turned out this well. It wasn’t wet and sticky and had a good flavour if cooked correctly. I like the packaging too, no plastic, so can be reused for something. Would definitely buy again for a special occasion.

I'm trying to duplicate the paella I had in Spain -- what is your best cooking secret? Muchas Gracias!** A: The secret for paella... Don't be stingy with the saffron, use plenty! **Q: Do you cover the pan while the rice cooks in your paella pan?** A: NO, do not cover it!!! You also do not stir it! Give the pan a shake every once in a while. The recipe that I usually use has you take the pan off the heat when the rice is cooked and cover it with a clean dish towel for 5-10 minutes. **Q: Can this rice be used for other rice dishes?** A: I don't see why not. It is a short grain rice perfect for forming the "soffrito" at the bottom of the paella pan. But it is rice, after all. **Q: Has anyone compared this Santo Tomas bomba rice to the considerably less expensive Matiz bomba rice also sold on amazon?** A: Doubt there would be much difference. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expensive but worth it *by F***R on 22 July 2020* I did think that this was a little expensive compared to £1.99 for paella rice in the supermarket, but I have to say it was worth it this time.
