Duck and Mushroom Paella, El Paeller
A gourmet Spanish rice dish combining the richness of confit duck, the earthy aromas of mushrooms and the depth of a naturally prepared wood-fired stock. An authentic Mediterranean recipe from El Paeller, ready to enjoy at home in just 18 minutes.
Product description
At Made in Spain Gourmet, we have selected El Paeller Duck and Mushroom Paella because it offers a particularly sophisticated interpretation of traditional Mediterranean rice cuisine.
The combination of duck and mushrooms gives this rice dish a distinctive personality, with rich flavours, countryside aromas and a texture that can be adapted to either a traditional dry-style rice or a creamier, more succulent preparation.
One of its main ingredients is shredded confit duck, which brings tenderness, juiciness and a rich flavour that blends beautifully with the rice.
The recipe also includes a selection of Portobello, shiitake, porcini, oyster mushrooms, chanterelles and black trumpet mushrooms.
Each variety contributes different aromatic nuances, ranging from delicate earthy notes to deeper flavours that complement the richness of the duck.
Another essential component is the stock.
El Paeller prepares its stock with water, chicken, duck, hen, traditional salmorreta, extra virgin olive oil and infused rosemary.
Salmorreta, a Mediterranean preparation made with crushed tomatoes, dried garlic and sweet paprika, creates an aromatic base that adds depth and balance to the recipe.
The infused rosemary contributes a subtle herbal character reminiscent of traditional countryside cooking and pairs particularly well with poultry and mushrooms.
However, the defining feature of this preparation is wood-fire cooking.
El Paeller uses this traditional method to prepare its stocks, developing depth and subtle flavour nuances that bring the finished dish closer to the character of artisan-cooked Spanish rice.
The rice is described as the Marisma variety, particularly suitable for achieving a creamy rice texture.
By adjusting the cooking process, the dish can be enjoyed with a drier finish or a more succulent, creamy consistency, according to personal preference and the manufacturer's instructions.
The pack brings together the stock, duck, mushrooms and rice needed to prepare the recipe without making the stock or cooking the main ingredients separately.
In approximately 18 minutes, you can enjoy a delicious Spanish rice dish with an exceptionally appealing combination of flavours.
For Made in Spain Gourmet, this product represents an excellent way to bring authentic Spanish rice traditions to those looking for distinctive gourmet dishes made with carefully selected ingredients and minimal preparation.
Confit duck, aromatic mushrooms and wood-fire cooking. A distinctive recipe that celebrates the finest traditions of Mediterranean cuisine.

Preparation and serving suggestions
El Paeller Duck and Mushroom Paella makes it easy to prepare an authentic Mediterranean rice dish at home, without having to make the stock or cook the ingredients separately.
The pack contains a 1,000 g tin with stock, duck and mushrooms, together with a bag of rice.
To prepare the dish, pour the contents of the tin into a paella pan or suitable cooking pan, add the rice and follow the manufacturer's cooking instructions.
The wood-fired stock allows the rice to gradually absorb the rich flavours of the confit duck, mushrooms and rosemary.
No additional ingredients are required, although you can personalise the recipe with freshly sautéed mushrooms or a few rosemary leaves.
Depending on the amount of liquid and the cooking method, you can achieve a drier rice dish or a more succulent, creamy texture.
Recommended wine pairings
The richness of the duck and the earthy aromas of the mushrooms make this dish particularly well suited to Spanish wines with gastronomic character.
A Garnacha red wine, with expressive fruit and gentle tannins, complements the richness of the duck without overwhelming the delicate mushroom aromas.
A Spanish Pinot Noir or an elegant Rioja Crianza also makes an excellent pairing, particularly for those seeking a balanced combination.
For white wine lovers, a well-structured Godello can provide a wonderful contrast thanks to its freshness and generous mouthfeel.
An ideal choice for anyone looking to enjoy authentic duck and mushroom paella at home, with wood-fired stock and all the character of Mediterranean cuisine.
