Ingredients

  • The right noodles : Look for Spanish-style vermicelli or short pasta (size 2 or 3) — just thick enough to soak up the broth, but delicate enough to keep their bite.
  • Fresh from the sea : Think shrimp, prawns, mussels, squid, and firm white fish — assemble your own maritime medley based on what’s fresh.
  • Homemade broth : Simmer fish heads, veggie scraps (like tomato, leek, and onion), fresh herbs, sweet paprika, and strain for a clear, deeply aromatic stock.
  • Flavor base : Garlic, onions, crushed tomatoes, smoked paprika, saffron (or a Spanish spice blend), and a generous pour of extra virgin olive oil.
