Spanish Traditions while on your Holiday Rentals in Spain

While enjoying your HOLIDAY RENTALS IN SPAIN, be sure to try out one of Spain's popular dishes. Paella is probably the most famous of them all: originally from the region of Valencia, where workers would sit around the paellera cooking a concoction based on rice with things such as marsh rats and snails in place of chicken or duck. Vicente Blasco Ibáñez wrote about the local custom in one of his books when visiting Albufera, a saltwater lagoon near his home in Valencia. A newspaper article written in 1840 mentions the recipe as “Valencian paella” not realising that paella was the name of the pan being used and not the name of the recipe.
