HAPPY PAELLAS It is clear that in this sector, each one has its recipe Review: Very good pan, arrived very quickly - Very good pan at a reasonable price, worked perfectly well, didn't stick, even on the fire. There is a factory anti rust coating on it which they advise you to boil water in it to remove but i found it wasn't enough and needed a scourer and an abrasive cleaner. Next time i'll try the ash and water paste trick to protect the bottom on the fire because it's a job to remove the soot. After washing i dry it 15 mins in the oven before oiling, it helps. Lemon juice removes the brown marks. It takes a little looking after which is fine as I don't use it every day. Plenty big enough size for 6, we had leftovers. Not flat enough for a ceramic hob. Review: Great Paella Pan, and great value! - Great Paella Pan, and great value. Simply clean with boiling soapy water for a few minutes, dry and then the important part: SEASON IT! .. to prevent it going rusty, and to also add a non-stick (/less-stick) coating. Do this using vegetable oil by browning and turning the pan in thin layers over a high heat (I used three burners simultaneously as mines a 55” pan!) and wiping off using kitchen towel. N.B. There’ll be A LOT of smoke!! The 2nd photo shows the cooked Paella (which was slowly turned/cooked over the three burners adding in the seafood towards the end), and then the 3rd shows the pan (after an all night soak on the hob) after having replenished the seasoning using the above process, but this time more selectively using one burner to ‘patch in’ & brown the areas needed. Do this after-use every time and the pan will gradually gain a better seasoned coating. ## Features - Made of polished steel - Number of portions 8 - Contains 4 rivets per handle - Comes with two handles - Measures 38 cm diameter ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000QYKK3W | | Best Sellers Rank | 29,303 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) 4 in Paella Pans | | Brand | Garcima La Ideal | | Brand Name | Garcima La Ideal | | Capacity | 1.18 litres | | Coating Description | Polished Steel | | Colour | Silver/Red | | Compatible Devices | Gas | | Compatible devices | Gas | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 4,838 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00797267797506, 08412595100386 | | Handle Material | Steel | | Has Nonstick Coating | No | | Included Components | Pamphlet | | Is Oven Safe | Yes | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | No | | Item Shape | Round with slanted sides | | Item Type Name | La Ideal_Polished Steel Paella Pan, 38 cm | | Item Weight | 2.55 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Garcima | | Manufacturer Part Number | 5020067 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No warranty. | | Material | Steel | | Material Type | Steel | | Maximum Temperature | 550 Degrees Fahrenheit | | Metal | Carbon Steel | | Model Name | Garcima | | Model Number | C-15RED | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | cooking paella | | Special Features | Gas Stovetop Compatible | | Special feature | Gas Stovetop Compatible | | Specific Uses For Product | Paella | | UPC | 735343553776 797267797506 | | Unit Count | 1 1 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Garcima La Ideal - **Material:** Steel - **Special feature:** Gas Stovetop Compatible - **Colour:** Silver/Red - **Capacity:** 1.18 litres ## Images ![Garcima La Ideal Polished Steel Paella Pan 38cm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ia6x2pOyL.jpg) ![Garcima La Ideal Polished Steel Paella Pan 38cm - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61C9J-ydBkL.jpg) ![Garcima La Ideal Polished Steel Paella Pan 38cm - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/412oiRZAlVL.jpg) ![Garcima La Ideal Polished Steel Paella Pan 38cm - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ofj+qVYML.jpg) ![Garcima La Ideal Polished Steel Paella Pan 38cm - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hp1R2S7eL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does the rice stick to the bottom of the pan? or does it burn?** A: A recipe will usually call for 7-8 Tb of olive oil. Let the pan heat well with oil. After browning any meats that need browned, sautéing the onion and any other veggies, and making your sofrito, stir your Spanish rice in this mixture. Then pour in hot liquid and don't stir any more. All of the together should prevent major sticking. But you want to manage your heat after the liquid all evaporates so that a little rice to stick/toast on bottom but not burn. (Listen for the toasting sound of the oil; this browned, not blackened, layer is called soccarat and is desirable and a reason why this traditional carbon steel pan is favored over stainless.) Then, when you remove paella from the heat, tent with foil and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. The resulting steam should make the soccarat on bottom mostly loosen. **Q: Will this pan stand up to the heat of a grill?** A: This pan was a gift for my daughter and son-in-law to make paella. They have used it on the grill with no problems and it makes great paella! **Q: What is the diameter of the bottom of this pan? there are multiple dimensions listed in the amazon listing, a 15 inch pan, dimensions on specs say 20+** A: the actual size of the bottom of the pan measured onthe out side is 13 1/8inches diameter **Q: Will the pan work on nu-wave stove top?** A: The convex and dimpled traditional bottom (desired for how it helps toasting of the rice) is better for gas and not induction. For induction there are heavier steel, completely flat-bottomed pans that are also not dimpled--well they are inside but you don't feel them underneath. A well-known brand in Spain is called Pata Negra and has black handles. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good pan, arrived very quickly *by A***R on 13 August 2023* Very good pan at a reasonable price, worked perfectly well, didn't stick, even on the fire.

Follow instructions before 1st use - fill with water and bring to a rolling boil. Carefully discard the hot water and thoroughly dry I used a T Towel and kitchen paper towels. BE CAREFUL DISCARDING THE HOT WATER IS VERY TRICKY TO HANDLE AND AVOID SCALDS. Then you need to season it by rubbing a very thin coating of oil all over it inside and out (avocado oil or grapeseed oil is best). Then is ready for use. Soak for 30 mins after use the clean and always thoroughly dry and re-season pan. I always store by wrapping in brown paper and a plastic bag. I know all this is a lot of work but my pan is still in good condition after a few uses and no rust. P.S I got all these tips from research on the Internet. ## Frequently Bought Together - Garcima 15-Inch Carbon Steel Paella Pan, 38cm - Gourmanity Spanish Paella Rice, Rey del Arroz Authentic Short Grain Valencia Rice from Spain, Great for Paella, Risotto, Seafood Dishes and Mediterranean dishes, Soy and Gluten Free, 2.2lb - Zaran Saffron, Superior Saffron Threads (Super Negin) Premium grade Saffron Spice for Paella, Risotto, Tea's, and all Culinary Uses (2 Grams) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50125211-garcima-la-ideal-polished-steel-paella-pan-38cm](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50125211-garcima-la-ideal-polished-steel-paella-pan-38cm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
