Looking for the best paella in trinidad Cuba?
Today we are pleased to show you all about the best seafood paellas in Trinidad Cuba;
we live in the city and also as a restaurant specialized in seafood menu;
we have a lot to tell you.
Let’s start with the origins of the Cuban paella; but this time we will not do the history of Valencia;
but the one that the Cuban grandmother tells us, the one that transmits the history in real time.
The paella that I and my friends in the city know dates back to the time of slavery in Cuba. It all stems from their waiters.
For once the families finished their banquets;
they picked up the table and mixed it all together and then ate it;
The work utensil where they collected it was called paella pan; and this mixture of all the food;
formed the first Cuban paellas, or at least those made in Cuba.
Based on this simple story our Bata Aché Beach Restaurant
got down to work and decided to create the best seafood paella in Trinidad, Cuba.
We had it all, tropical rice, a vast sea, the fishermen;
and the best sauces and vegetables in the whole area.
It didn’t take us long to create our own recipe and become an icon of the seafood restaurant in Cuba.
First we will talk about our Cuban paellas, the best known.
Types of Cuban Paella in Trinidad Cuba
When you arrive in Cuba you will notice that there are only three types of paella;
the seafood paella, the peasant paella and the vegetable paella.
These three offerings are the most common on the island, the peasant paella is a mixture of rice and meat,
In many restaurants there are thematic menus and this recipe is never missing in the peasant nights.
Its secret is to use only Cuban farm animals and all natural ingredients.
Being in a tropical country, industrial additives are not necessary for good gastronomy.
The vegetables are exquisite, nothing like seasonal Cuban vegetables;
in Bata Ache Beach we take advantage of these natural resources to the maximum.
We know how special is a Cuban cabbage or cabbage in Cuba;
because we do not need to add any type of chemical for its cultivation and the climate accompanies us.
There is a lot to say about seafood paella;
because Trinidad Cuba is one of the best areas to taste these recipes;
and we are not only from this city;
but we are also located just a few meters from the best beach in the area, playa ancon.
How we make our paellas, well below we give you the recipe and our secret.

What are our secrets, we will show you how we prepare it for you.
To begin with, we always check to have at least three types of Cuban chili peppers;
the red one will delight you in any recipe.
Some purple and white onions will be excellent for our preparation.
We find some ripe tomatoes, pepper, salt, and seasoning, we leave it to your taste;

Now the most important thing, lobster, oysters, octopus, clams, some crab molelitas and shrimp. But you can add more seafood at home, it’s up to you.
Let’s cook now, it is as easy as making a tortilla.
We sauté the garlic in butter, and then add all the seafood; stir for a while until it starts to smell rich, it smells like Cuba.
After a few minutes we add salt to taste, we recommend little.
Then add the seasonings, the onions, and the peppers except the red one.
