Garcima Enamelled Carbon Steel Paella Pan 34cm - 5-8 Portions

The classic choice. Garcima is the workshop in Valencia that professional kitchens associate with paella, and this is the enamelled 34cm version — accommodating five servings of thin Valencian rice in a pan that resides alongside everyday cookware in the cupboard.

The vitreous enamel distinguishes this from the uncoated polished variant. While polished carbon steel requires seasoning, careful drying after each wash, and vigilance against rust, the enamel simply wipes clean. It is stable on gas, suitable for open flames, oven-safe for finishing, and resistant to the rust that can affect bare carbon steel.

Constructed in the traditional manner: pressed carbon steel, dimpled across the base, featuring two riveted handles that maintain their alignment under heat. The dimples serve a purpose beyond aesthetics — they reinforce the base of the pan to keep it flat during cooking and assist in evenly distributing the rice in the thin layer that defines paella.

For serving, a 34cm pan can accommodate approximately 5 portions of thin rice (the Valencian style), 7 portions at a medium depth, or 8 portions when stretched deeper for a more substantial dish.
