Industry Paella Pan
Perfect for creating authentic, flavorful paellas, the blue steel construction provides excellent heat conductivity, ensuring even cooking across the entire surface. This is essential for achieving the perfect socarrat, the crispy layer of rice at the bottom of the pan. The pan's wide, shallow design allows for the ideal evaporation of liquids, concentrating flavors and creating a deliciously rich dish. Additionally, the natural nonstick properties that develop over time make it easy to cook and clean, enhancing your overall cooking experience. Features: Blue Steel Construction (1.5mm – 2.0mm): Excellent heat conductor, withstands high temperatures, and allows for longer preheating. Oven Safe: Up to 200°C. Durable and Easy to Season: Develops a natural nonstick patina over time. Metal Utensil Safe: Once seasoned, it can be used with metal objects. Versatile: Suitable for all heat sources, including induction. Odor Resistant: High-density metal construction prevents odor retention. Minimal Care Required: Not advisable for dishwasher use. Always heat up and cool down gradually. Safety: Carbon steel handles get hot during cooking; use a protective mitt or oven glove. Use & Care: Before First Use: Clean with very hot water and wipe dry. Heat 1cm of oil in the pan on medium for 5 minutes until it bubbles. Turn off the heat, let it cool, discard the oil, and wipe with a paper towel. Repeat 1-2 times for best results. After Each Use: Wash in hot tap water immediately, dry thoroughly with a paper towel, and lightly oil before storing in a dry place to prevent oxidation. Cooking Tips for Chefs: Perfect Searing: Preheat your pan on medium-high heat before adding oil. This ensures a perfect sear on meats and vegetables. Even Cooking: Use low to medium heat for most dishes to maintain even cooking and prevent burning. Deglazing: After searing, deglaze the pan with wine or broth to create a delicious sauce from the caramelized bits left behind. Seasoning: Regularly season your pan to maintain its nonstick properties and enhance the flavor of your dishes. Resting Meat: After cooking, let meat rest in the pan off the heat for a few minutes to retain juices and improve tenderness.
