Recipe of Fideuá

Vida Recetas Editorial

Fideuá is a traditional Spanish dish, originally from the Valencian Community, which shares the essence of paella but is made with noodles instead of rice. This seafood fideuá recipe is perfect for those looking for a tasty, easy-to-prepare lunch that will surprise diners, whether at home or to share with coworkers.

The dish combines thin noodles with a sofrito of vegetables (red pepper, tomato, spring onions, and flat green beans), frozen seafood (such as clams and others), and a flavorful fish broth, all perfumed with saffron. The final texture is juicy, with al dente noodles and a concentrated sea flavor.

This version is ideal for beginners, as the difficulty is easy and the process is very similar to paella, but with noodles. It also allows variations: you can substitute the seafood with chicken or rabbit, or add a touch of spice if desired. If you want to learn how to prepare fideuá step by step, this recipe will guide you to achieve a spectacular result.
