How we cook it
Three steps to a paella
Bomba rice, a wide pan and a little patience. This is how a seaside kitchen gets the rice right, every time.
Choose the rice
Short-grain bomba rice holds the stock without turning soft. Saffron, sweet paprika and a good pinch of salt go in first.
300 g rice · 1 g saffron · serves 4
Simmer slowly
Pour the warm stock over the rice and leave it alone for eighteen minutes. No stirring — that is how the crisp bottom forms.
900 ml stock · 18 min · medium heat
To the table
Rest the pan for five minutes under a cloth, scatter the shellfish on top, then carry it straight to the middle.
5 min rest · lemon & olive oil
Good to know
Before you set the table
Short answers on keeping, cooking and receiving your seafood.
How long will my seafood keep?
Keep it frozen at -18°C or below and cook within three months for the best texture. Once thawed, keep it chilled and use it within a day.
What is the easiest way to cook it?
Pat it dry, season lightly and cook over a hot pan or grill. Finish with olive oil and lemon — the seafood does the rest.
Where does it ship from?
Orders leave our cold store packed with ice and insulation, and travel across New Zealand with a tracked courier.
Is it fresh or frozen?
Most of our range is frozen at peak condition to protect flavour and texture. Live shellfish is sent chilled, not frozen.
