The process
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell usually draws people over. For a Christmas party in Winchfield Hurst, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
