Product Review

This 18-Inch pan serves 5 to 8 people. This pan will fit over two closely spaced standard burners, or sometimes over one and a half burners. The pan is made of carbon steel (also known as polished steel, or acero pulido), which is ideal for paella since it conducts heat quickly and evenly. The handles are made of steel and painted red. 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 feel that it enhances flavor.
