How to make a Socarrat tuile (a new way to eat your Paella)

This Socarrat tuile cone filled with freshly cooked paella rice ABSOLUTELY is one of the best dishes that I’ve created for this month… I could eat it anytime, it looks amazing and also fun, resembling an ice-cream cone somehow, but more for the savoury guys out there. I can also see it on a restaurant menu and as a snack sold at the famous Barcelona food market (Mercado de La Boqueria). But first, let’s learn how to make those Paella rice tuiles.

Learn how to cook a Tuile | quick & easy recipe

Tuile is that food item that can make your dish look amazing, no-matter what the other components of your plate are. It is used by many professional Chefs around the world as an ultimate food decoration. And it is actually very easy to make, as long as you have the right equipment (non-stick pan in this case) and use correct proportions in your recipe (see below). In this recipe I’ve flavoured my Tuile with Saffron, but you can use any kind of flavouring in your Tuile, e.g. substitute Saffron tea with tomato juice, or beet juice. In these cases you will end up with Tuiles not only of different taste but also colour. The world is your oyster, explore and sharpen your culinary techniques!
