Valencian and Catalan dish made with cuttlefish (or squid) and rice

About this dish

Arròs negre or arrós negre is a Valencian and Catalan dish made with cuttlefish or squid and rice, somewhat similar to seafood paella. Some call it paella negra ("black paella"), although it is traditionally not called a paella even though it is prepared in a similar manner. Arròs negre should not be confused with black rice, which is heirloom rice that has a naturally dark color. The traditional recipe for this dish calls for squid ink, cuttlefish or squid, white rice, garlic, green cubanelle peppers, sweet paprika, olive oil and seafood broth. However, many cooks add other seafood as well, such as crab and shrimp. The dish's dark color comes from squid ink which also enhances its seafood flavor.
