Description
Polished Steel Paella Pan 36 cm from El Cid – the traditional paella pan
Traditional polished steel paella pan from El Cid, a paella pan maker in Valencia, Spain, that has been making pans since 1954. The pan has a diameter of 36 cm and two red handles. The steel conducts heat quickly and evenly, and El Cid uses thicker steel than many other manufacturers, so the pan is rigid and warps less. The base is slightly domed, so the oil collects in the centre when you fry the ingredients and make the sofrito.

Frequently asked questions about the polished steel paella pan 36 cm
Does the pan rust?
Polished steel can rust if it is left wet. Dry the pan well after washing and grease it with a little oil, and it will stay in good shape for many years.
What is the difference between polished and enamelled steel?
Polished steel is the traditional paella pan. Enamelled steel does not rust and does not need oiling, so it is easier to care for.
Which paella burner fits?
For a 36 cm pan, the Paella Burner L-20 fits; it is made for pans of 30–40 cm.
