The 20th of September has been chosen to commemorate the paella, coinciding with the harvest of the main ingredient with which it is made: rice, the initiative comes from the City Council of Valencia and other local Valencian entities. Paella is a typical dish of humble origins but which has become so international that it reaches every corner of the planet, and is known worldwide. Originally, paella was a country dish that Valencian peasants prepared with ingredients available in the region, such as rice, rabbit, snails and vegetables. Over time, paella has become more versatile, and numerous variations have been created based on regional ingredients and personal preferences. Paella is typically cooked outdoors over an open fire or a wide, flat heat source. The rice is cooked in the broth and ingredients are added at the appropriate time so that everything cooks evenly. It is usually served in the same paella pan in which it was cooked.
