Garcima Traditional Steel Paella Pan (13 inch)

This 13.5-inch pan, made in Spain, is an authentic paella pan that is perfect for cooking 2 to 3 servings, or even just 2 if all parties restrain themselves a bit. The pan fits easily over one burner and is crafted from carbon steel, also known as polished steel or acero pulido. This material is ideal for paella, as it conducts heat quickly and evenly.

The pan is thin but quite rigid and durable, with a hammered dimpled bottom. Carbon steel is the traditional material for paella, and some paella devotees believe it enhances the flavor. The handles of the pan are made of steel and painted red.

Included with the pan is an informative pamphlet that contains two recipes, making it a comprehensive package for the paella enthusiast. The pan can be used on a gas or charcoal grill, on the stovetop, or in the oven, making it a versatile kitchen tool.

One of the key benefits of the carbon steel construction is its durability and superior heat conduction. This ensures that the paella cooks evenly and efficiently, regardless of the cooking method used.

To maintain the pan in optimal condition, it is important to dry it thoroughly right after washing and then rub the inside with a small amount of vegetable oil to prevent rusting.

Overall, this 13.5-inch paella pan is an authentic and high-quality piece of cookware that will allow you to create delicious paella dishes with ease. The inclusion of the informative pamphlet and the versatility of the pan make it an excellent choice for both experienced paella chefs and those new to this beloved Spanish dish.
