Autentico Dining

02/04/2025

Dear Autentico Customers and Followers,

For the past seven years, Jorge and I have poured our hearts and souls into Autentico, creating the high-quality, passionate dining experience that you’ve come to know and love. As we’ve started to think about retiring in the not-too-distant future, one thing has held us back: the desire to ensure that Autentico is passed on to someone who shares our dedication to quality, attention to detail, and love for what we do. We didn’t want just anyone to continue our journey—we wanted someone who truly embodied our vision.

Over the years, we’ve met many kind-hearted and well-intentioned people who were eager to take the reins. However, we never felt that their vision aligned with ours, so we continued to run things ourselves. That was until something wonderful happened.

We are thrilled to announce that our dear friend Anna, a highly skilled chef with years of experience running a successful fine dining business, has offered to take over Autentico. Anna has asked to continue the business exactly as it is, with no changes whatsoever. We couldn’t be more excited, as Anna reflects the values and standards that we hold so dear.

Starting April 1st, Anna will take the lead at Autentico, with Jorge and I staying on to support her for as long as she needs us. We will pass on our recipes, our Spanish suppliers, and everything that makes our Paellas and other dishes special. Rest assured; nothing will change.

We are so happy to see Autentico remain in the caring hands of a close friend and talented chef rather than with strangers. We hope you’ll continue to enjoy the Paellas and all the flavours you love.

Thank you for your continued support over the years. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Warm regards,
Mel, Jorge & Anna@annas_kitchen___

🌟 The Secret to an Unforgettable Paella: The Sofrito 🌟

If you've ever wondered what gives a paella its incredible depth of flavour, let us introduce you to the unsung hero of the dish: the sofrito!

This slow-cooked blend is the heart of a great paella. It’s where all the magic begins! The sofrito lays the foundation, infusing the rice with rich, savoury notes that make every bite irresistible.

Here's why it's so important:
1️⃣ Flavour Building: The slow cooking of the sofrito caramelizes the natural sugars in the ingredients, creating a sweet, smoky base.
2️⃣ Rice's Best Friend: When the rice absorbs the sofrito, it captures all those bold, complex flavours, making the dish sing!
3️⃣ A Balancing Act: A well-made sofrito ensures every ingredient in the paella complements the others harmoniously.

Next time you enjoy a paella, remember that the secret to its soul lies in the sofrito. It's the reason a good paella is more than just rice and toppings—it's a masterpiece!

We love perfecting our sofrito every time we cook, and it's one of the ways we pour love into every pan of paella.

How about you—do you have a secret sofrito tip or tradition? Let us know in the comments!
