Seafood Paella

Nutritional values
Paella with mussels and chicken is a typical Spanish dish, in which peppers and peas are not to be missed - and they provide us with vitamin C. A portion of 150 grams of peas covers more than one third of our daily needs. Also contained in significant quantities: Vitamin A plus the minerals potassium, magnesium and phosphorus.
What makes the paella yellow? The rice pan gets its appealing yellow colour from saffron. Whole threads of saffron are the most precious and productive. Depending on the quality and origin, you need 15 to 30 pieces for three to four portions, which corresponds to 0.1 gram.
