Review: Great Paella pan! - Very functional and easy to use and clean paella pan. Works well on glass top ceramic halogen stoves and conducts heats very well even on 11" element (bottom of pan is actually 13".) Any stuck or even burnt rice at the bottom will come right off after soaking it with hot water for few minutes and scraping it with a metal spatula. Then a good hand-wash and scrubbing with Barkeeper stainless Steel powder cleaner and a dish brush or a 3M scrub sponge will clean it to its original shine. Well made pan well worth the price. You don't have to worry about rusting or damaging the pan from scrubbing(which is always needed after cooking paella in any pan) like you do with carbon steel paella pans. Review: Definitely worth the money! - I received the pan 2 days ago and made paella last night. It's the best tasting paella I have ever made. The pan made a huge difference. I ordered the 13.7" pan based on the description of 15.6 x 13.8 x 2 inches. Somehow I thought the pan is 15.6" in diameter on the top, but actually it is 13.8" on top. The 15.6" measure includes the 2 handles. I was worried that it might be too small for my family, but it turns out more than enough. I still have left overs. The pan is so beautiful, and of high quality. When I was frying the chicken pieces in the pan, I did notice the skin sticking to the bottom. But after adding rice and stock, the problem was solved. At the end, I did not get much socarrat on the bottom. But I am sure with some adjustment of rice stock ratio, I will be able to achieve the best result next time. Overall, I highly recommend the Mauviel M'Elite Paella Pan! ## Features - Made in France.

The heat is pretty well distributed while frying, but while simmering to cook the rice, I end up rotating the pan every 5-10 minutes to keep the heat even. If you have a single large burner, it would probably work o.k. **Q: How should this paella pan be cared for? Anything necessary before using the first time? How about to maintain it?** A: Stainless steel, new wash in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. IMHO socarrat, the crusty, crispy Cara melized bottom of absolutely essential to fabulous Paella. I cook my Paella on a charcoal fired Big Green Egg, adds smokiness and the socarrat I’m looking for. Soak pan overnight, cleans up well. I use Barkeepers Friend, keeps pan looking new. Paella is our celebratory feast for many occasions, made it many times, pan looks practically new, even with live fire cooking. **Q: Is a lid available for this pan?** A: It doesn’t come with one and I think it would be hard to fit - I would just use one of those flexible sized lids it you really want one. I never use one with it **Q: is 15.7" the top diameter or the bottom of the pan diameter?** A: I just measured 16” across top rim and 14” across the pan’s bottom. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Paella pan! *by N***K on January 3, 2019* Very functional and easy to use and clean paella pan.
