Notes: Kate fell in love with paella in Spain, so we found a recipe in my "go to" cookbook "The Joy of Cooking" and modified it for our rice cooker. The cookbook was a gift from mom in 1983 where she inscribed "Happy Cooking from Mom", the sight of which still makes me smile. We were amused when we read about saffron in this cookbook, "Add a small quantity of saffron - - or up to 2 teaspoons if you are Spanish." I bet that line has been edited out in later editions! As Kate continues to study Spanish, we may gradually increase the quantity of saffron in this recipe!
