11-inch Carbon Steel Paella Pan

This 11 inch pan is perfect for making paella and can serve one person generously or two people moderately. It conveniently fits over one burner and has handles made of steel that are painted red. The pan is constructed of carbon steel, also known as polished steel or acero pulido, which is excellent for paella due to its ability to quickly and evenly conduct heat. With a thin but rigid and durable construction, the pan also features a hammered dimpled bottom.

Carbon steel is the traditional material for paella, and many paella enthusiasts believe that it enhances the flavor of the dish. This authentic paella pan is made in Spain and comes with an informative pamphlet that includes two recipes. It can be used on a gas or charcoal grill, on the stovetop, or in the oven. The durable nature of carbon steel allows it to conduct heat well, making it an ideal choice for cooking paella.

To ensure the longevity of the pan, it is recommended to dry it right after washing and then rub the inside with a small amount of vegetable oil to prevent rusting. This care routine will maintain the quality of the pan for years to come.
