The name 'paella' comes from the pan in which it is traditionally cooked and served - the 'paellera'. There are many different types of paella - the only common ingredients being the rice, olive oil and saffron. Paellas are traditionally cooked in the open air at picnics in Spain - often over an open fire - and the ingredients include whatever is available. The shallow design of the traditional paellera spreads the heat effectively and allows the ingredients to cook evenly. When cooked, a paella will have a crust of rice (called the 'socarrat') on the base - this is particularly popular with Spanish eaters! Paella pans are also suitable for making many other rice dishes, such as risotto, and can also be used as a general pan for preparing meat and vegetable dishes.
