ARROZ: SPANISH RICE

Steps:

• Open can of tomatoes and chicken broth and set aside. These ingredients have to be added quickly, so have them ready.
• Heat lard or shortening in a saucepan on medium-high. Add rice, stirring constantly. When rice is brown, immediately add the onion and garlic and stir so it is evenly mixed. Quickly add the 2 tomatoes (squish them with your hand). Add 1/4 cup of liquid from the can of tomatoes and 3/4 of the entire amount of chicken broth. Bring to a full boil, cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Let simmer until rice is tender and most of broth has evaporated, about 20 to 30 minutes. (The remaining broth can be added if rice is still a little hard) Remove rice from heat and leave covered until ready to serve.

ARROZ ROJO (RED RICE)

Steps:

• In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the chicken stock, tomato paste, onion powder, coriander, cumin and pepper.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium. Add the garlic and rice, and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice is fragrant and lightly toasted, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour the stock mixture into the skillet and bring to a full boil. Stir in the mixed vegetables, then reduce the heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and let the rice sit, covered, to steam for another 15 minutes. Uncover and let the steam release for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Season with salt to taste. Serve alongside your favorite dishes.

ARROZ DE VERDURAS (VEGETABLE RICE)

Steps:

• For the sofrito: Bring a pan of water to a boil, add tomatoes, and blanch for 15 seconds. Drain, rinse under cold water, and peel. Core, seed, and cut into 1/2-inch dice. In a skillet over medium-low heat, add the oil and sauté the onion and garlic until golden. Add saffron and sauté 2 minutes. Add tomato and sauté until all the moisture is gone. Stir in paprika and remove from heat.
• For the rice: In a large heavy-bottomed pot, combine the sofrito and olive oil. Place over medium-low heat. Add rice and stir constantly with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the rice is toasted, about 1 minute. Add 3 cups of the stock and mix well. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. (At this point the rice is partially cooked and may be spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet, covered with more parchment, and allowed to sit at room temperature for up to three hours before finishing.)
• To finish: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bring a small pan of water to a boil, add carrots, and blanch for 10 seconds. Drain, and rinse with cold water. Spread the rice evenly across the bottom of a 16 to 18 inch paella or sauté pan, and scatter the edamame, peas, corn, carrots, and olives on top. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining 1 1/2 cups stock.
• Place pan in oven and bake until the rice is crisped around the edges and a "soccarat," a crust, has formed on the bottom of the pan, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, cover with foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and cilantro. Mix well, scraping the bottom and sides of pan, and adjust salt and pepper as desired. Serve hot.
