Garcima Pata Negra Induction Polished Paella Pan 42cm - Carbon Steel

The professional choice. Garcima's Pata Negra represents the restaurant-grade line from the workshop — thicker, heavier, designed for the kind of daily usage that can ruin lighter cookware. This version is induction-ready, featuring the same bare polished carbon steel surface that develops a patina over time, but with a specially engineered sandwich base that is compatible with all heat sources in a contemporary kitchen, including induction. This pan allows kitchens equipped with induction cooktops to prepare authentic paella for the first time.

Measuring forty-two centimeters in diameter — suitable for serving 3 to 10 people based on the depth of the rice layer. It’s the perfect size for a family meal, a small gathering, or a restaurant's moderate service. It maintains the same shallow profile and traditional shape that Garcima has been perfecting for a century, as specified by serious kitchens. Compatible with gas, electric, vitro-ceramic, induction, and oven cooking. Manufactured in Valencia. Built to endure.

Care

• Season the cooking surface prior to first use — apply vegetable oil and heat to create a protective layer
• Hand wash in warm water with mild soap — do not use a dishwasher
• Towel-dry immediately after washing
• Lightly rub the inside with vegetable oil after drying to avoid rust
• If rust appears on the cooking surface, a few passes with steel wool will remove it effectively
• The pan will darken with use — this is the patina, not a defect
