About Paella de arroz negro

Paella de Arroz Negro is a flavorful Spanish dish originating from the coastal regions of Valencia and Catalonia. Its hallmark is the rich black hue imparted by squid or cuttlefish ink, which is mixed into the rice, creating a striking visual and savory depth. This seafood-centric paella typically includes calamari, shrimp, garlic, onion, tomatoes, and olive oil, all simmered with aromatic spices like paprika and saffron. While the dish is naturally high in protein from the seafood and contains beneficial antioxidants found in the ink and olive oil, it is also a source of sodium depending on preparation methods. The rice component provides energy-dense carbohydrates, making it ideal for active lifestyles. This paella strikes a balance between indulgence and nutrition with its fresh ingredients and unmistakable Mediterranean flavors. However, individuals monitoring fat or sodium intake should consume in moderation or opt for slight adjustments in preparation.
