La Ideal Paella de Acero Pulido, traditional polished carbon-steel paella pan from Valencia, Spain.

Sturdy and fast heating,yet thin and strong, this is the traditional pan of Spain. Traditional polished steel paella pans are the most popular choice for their great price, durability, and for their authentic flavor. Surprisingly, the raw-polished steel actually improves the flavor of what is being cooked inside! The raw steel traps the oil inside of its natural microscopic pores and gives you a wonderful crisp texture on the bottom layer of rice. Care for these pans just like you would cast-iron cookware; handwashing ensures a lifetime of performance.

These pans are always a great choice for flavor and value!

Tips on selecting the right paella pan:

  • Paella pans are measured from the top edge of the pan, not counting the handles.
  • The serving size guidelines (listed in the item description) is an approximation based on about 1 1/2 cups of cooked rice per serving if you fill the pan up about 3/4 of the way. This would be an average serving, for an larger entree size portion, you'll want to estimate 1-2 servings per guest.
  • Paella pans are generally not flat, thus they don't work well on an electric or induction cook top. The domed bottom is to help the oil pool in the center of the pan, which helps the rice get crispy (Yum!)
  • For a heat source, we recommend one of our paella burners, a professional gas range, or cooking outside on the BBQ. You may also choose to pre-cook your ingredients in a standard frying pan, then transfer to a paella pan and finish cooking in the oven (but it won't be as good as cooking over an open flame!)
