Product Details
This heavy-duty carbon steel paella pan from Valencian brand Vaello Campos is designed to achieve perfect ‘socarrat’, a Spanish term that refers to the crispy, toasted rice closest to the pan. This is because carbon steel is a hard-wearing material that can hold the high temperatures required to sear meat, vegetables, rice, and more perfectly—and it only gets better with time, thanks to a layer of seasoning that develops as you cook in it. (Read about how to season a carbon steel pan here.) You can use this pan on the barbecue or in the oven, as well as on any hob including induction. Though designed for paella, it can be used like you would a regular frying pan.
Note: This pan must be seasoned before use, or else it will rust. Once seasoned, it will form a layer that needs to be regularly maintained. Read our instructions on how to season and maintain a carbon steel pan, and why it's worth it, in our guide.
