Gourmet 30 cm paella burner kit

The Gourmet 30 cm paella burner kit with a professional 50 cm "pata negra" paella pan brings together everything you need to prepare Valencian paella, rice dishes and fideuà on butane or propane gas. It is sized for 4 to 5 servings of thin rice (up to 8 with a thicker layer), ideal for family meals, couples and gatherings at home, on the terrace or in the garden.

Gas connections vary from country to country: if your country does not share the Spanish connection, the burner is manufactured to order with the connection for your destination country, which takes around 10 days. Some countries do share the Spanish connection, in which case shipping is immediate subject to stock.

Like all our kits, it is made in Spain by Garcima (Valencia), the sector's long-established brand with over 110 years making paella burners and pans. The set is matched throughout —the burner fits the diameter of the pan— which avoids the most common problem when assembling the equipment piece by piece: rice that cooks unevenly around the edges. The gas kit is certified to the standards UNE-EN 16129 and UNE-EN 16436.

What this kit includes

• Flat gas paella burner

• Set of lacquered iron legs
• 30 mbar gas kit (regulator, approved hose and clamps)

The "pata negra" paella pan: professional quality

The professional "pata negra" 50 cm paella pan is made of thicker polished steel, the same as used by restaurants and rice houses: it distributes heat better and is very hard-wearing (it needs seasoning and thorough drying).

How to make a good paella with this kit

Heat the 50 cm pan on the burner and brown the meat or seafood. Make the sofrito and add the paprika over a low heat so it doesn't turn bitter. Stir in the rice, sauté it and pour in the hot stock (about 2 to 2.5 parts stock to one of rice). Spread the heat for even cooking and turn it up at the end for the socarrat. Leave it to rest for 5 minutes. With this pan, count on 4 to 5 servings of thin rice.

Care and maintenance

The "pata negra" paella pan needs seasoning before first use and thorough drying after each wash (not dishwasher safe); in return it lasts for many years.

Who is it ideal for?

Thanks to its 30 cm size it is perfect for family meals, couples and gatherings at home, on the terrace or in the garden.
