Use a 3-quart casserole with lid. An earthenware casserole is preferable, especially if you wish to add a touch of Spain to a dinner party. However, I know that good earthenware is hard to find today. I have 2 casseroles that I've had for 15 years. - Heat oil in casserole. Saute onion and pepper until transparent.
- Add garlic, parsley, tomato, bay leaf, nutmeg, cumin and thyme.
- Mix well, cover, and cook over low heat until mushy (about 15 minutes). The saffron should be toasting on the lid in the little brown paper.
- Add the shrimp to the saute and cook until it turns pink.
- Dissolve the saffron in the 1 cup hot water. Combine with wine, lemon juice, salt and hot sauce.
- Pour into casserole, stir to mix, and cook covered 10 minutes more.
- Now add the rice and the 2 1/2 cups of water.
- Distribute ingredients well in casserole. Bring to a quick boil, STIR ONCE, and place in preheated 325 degree F. oven for only 20 minutes - NI UN MINUTO MAS!
- Remove from oven, uncover, and garnish with peas, pimientos, and parsley.
- Pour beer over all. Cover again and allow to stand 15 minutes longer, before serving.
