What is Paella? 
Paella is a Spanish, saffron-flavored dish made of rice
with shellfish and chicken. The Ebro delta is actually just north of Valencia
in Tarragona. But Valencia
has become closely associated with rice dishes made from the short grain Arborio
rice which grows there.
The most famous being Paella
(Pie-ay-ah). “La Paella” is a cooking
utensil, traditionally and preferably made of iron. The pan is circular and shallow
with two round handles on opposite sides with a flat base of a good thickness.
The word itself is old Valencian and probably has its roots in the Latin “patella” (A
flat basket in Galicia). The Castillian “paila” and the French “paele” mean
the same thing.* During the centuries following the establishment of rice in
Spain, the peasants of Valencia would use the paella pan to cook rice with easily
available ingredients from the countryside: tomatoes, onions and snails. On special
occasions rabbit or duck might be included, and the better-off could afford chicken. Little
by little this “Valencian rice” became more widely known. By the
end of the nineteenth century “paella valenciana” had established
itself.*
What is Sangria?
 From
its humble roots in Spain, Sangria
has grown to become a popular, refreshing party drink around the world. Sangria
is typically created from red wine, fruit juices, soda water, fruit and sometimes
brandy, served over ice. Every restaurant has its own recipe. It's one of the
most individualistic drinks on the market. Sangria is a red wine punch, although
it can also be made with white wine - it is then known as 'Sangria Blanco'. Sangria
was originally created in Spain with Rioja and other Spanish reds. Soon, however,
the Cava-producing area adopted a sparkling white version. In the south of Spain
Sangria is called zurra, and is created with peach or nectarine. Authentic Sangria
