Posts: 20
Looking to do my first Paella on the egg and have a few questions. I listed my recipe below. Cheers!
1) What temp would you recommend?
2) Direct or Indirect Heat? (I'm guessing Direct)
3) any other good tips or advice
Here is my recipe that I am using.
§ 1 ripe tomato
§ 1/2 cup white wine
§ 1 red onion, chopped
§ 12 black mussels, beards removed & scrubbed
§ 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil.
§ 1/2 red onion, extra, finely chopped
§ 2 pieces Italian sausage, cook ahead & sliced
§ 2 wood roasted paquillo peppers, chopped
§ 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
§ 1 cup sivaris bomba paella rice
§ 1/2 teaspoon Spansih saffron threads
§ 2 cups organic chicken stock, heated
§ 1/2 cup frozen peas
§ 12 extra large shrimp, unpealed Note: I kept the shrimp unpealed for more flavor.
§ 12 little neck clams
§ 1 handful parsley, chopped
§ 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
§ 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
§ 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
§ 1/2 teaspoon Spanish pimenton smoked paprika

Sounds good. You could use some fish stock in the sofrito instead of the chicken.

I agree with @lousubcap the Naked Whiz is a great place to checkout along with this forum. His method is what I used for setting the egg up and learning to cook with the dome open. Click on the link and it will answer most of the questions you have.Here is my post from the last time I did Paella on the LBGE! Hope it helps..@Richard_FI yours looks awesome!=D>Good luck and and take pics!Large & Small BGE, CGW Two-Tier Swing Rack for BOTH EGGS, Spider for the Wok, eggCARTen & and Cedar Pergola my Eggs call home in Edmond, OK.
