Description

Garcima polished Valencian paella pan for induction

The induction paella pan by Garcima is a Valencian paella pan in polished steel with a flat base, designed for cooking rice on induction hobs, ceramic hobs and electric cookers, although it also works over gas or a wood fire. It is made in Valencia (Spain) from the thickest steel on the market, which makes it more resistant to warping and helps it spread and hold the heat better. It comes with a 2-year guarantee.

Features

  • Extra-thick polished steel: resistant to warping, with excellent heat retention.
  • Completely flat base ("pata negra" model): full contact with the induction or ceramic hob.
  • Also suitable for gas cookers, electric cookers and wood fires.
  • Made in Valencia by Garcima, a paella pan specialist for decades.
  • 2-year guarantee.

How to choose the right size for an induction hob

With induction, what matters is the diameter of the base, not the rim: for the hob to detect the pan properly and heat the whole surface, choose a size whose base is close to that of your cooking zone. If your hob has a large or flexible zone, you can go up to 38 or 42 cm; for a standard zone, the 30 and 34 cm sizes are the best balanced. If you are torn between two, check the servings column in the table.

Seasoning and care of polished steel

Polished steel has no coating at all, so it needs protecting from moisture. After each use, wash the pan, dry it thoroughly and rub it with a thin layer of oil; store it wrapped in paper or inside a bag. With this simple care it stays in perfect condition for years and develops a better cooking surface with use.

If you would rather skip the maintenance, the Garcima enamelled paella pan for induction cleans up with no seasoning required. To use gas paella pans on an induction hob there is the induction adaptor heat diffuser, and to serve the paella at the table, the Garcima round forged trivets.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on any induction hob?

Yes. Its flat steel base is ferromagnetic and is detected by any induction hob. For even heating, choose the size whose base best matches your cooking zone (see the size table).

Can it also be used on gas or a wood fire?

Yes. Although it is designed for induction and ceramic hobs, it is equally suitable for gas cookers, electric cookers and wood fires.

What is the difference between the polished and the enamelled paella pan?

The polished pan is the traditional Valencian steel: it needs drying and rubbing with oil after each use to prevent rust. The enamelled pan has a vitrified coating that does away with that maintenance, in exchange for a less traditional finish.

How do I stop it rusting?

Dry it thoroughly after washing, apply a thin layer of oil over the whole surface and store it wrapped in paper or in a bag, in a dry place.

How many servings does each size hold?

As a guide: 30 cm for 1 serving, 34 cm for 2, 38 cm for 3 and 42 cm for 5. On induction, remember to also check the base diameter against your hob.

Javier
Question:

Hello, it warps in the middle; I've bought several brands and they all give me that fault. Kind regards.
Answer:

The Garcima induction paella pan has a thicker base than conventional paella pans, precisely so it works better on induction hobs. Even so, no steel paella pan is immune to thermal stress: if it's overheated or left empty on the heat, the base can end up warping — that happens with every brand. To avoid it, heat it up gradually, starting on medium power, and never leave the paella pan empty on the induction zone. If you're after maximum resistance to warping, our catalogue also includes cast aluminium and forged aluminium paella pans, which are even more stable under heat. Kind regards.

Question:

On my induction hob the largest ring is 28 cm — which paella pan would suit me, and how many people would it serve? Thanks
Answer:

The most suitable is the 34 cm one, and it's ideal for 2 servings.

Santiago
Question:

Good afternoon, I want to buy a 40 cm diameter paella pan for induction, and the largest of my induction rings is 28 cm in diameter. Could I use it without any problem, and would the heat spread across the whole surface without any problem?
Answer:

It's too small; we can't guarantee that the cooking will be even.
José
Question:

Good morning, is it safe to use a gas paella burner indoors? The ring on my ceramic hob is too small for 4 people. Thanks
Answer:

Yes, with proper use and supervision it's safe; however, for added safety you also have the paella burners with a thermocouple
José Antonio Pallares escalera
Question:

Do you have a 50 cm induction paella pan? The 42 cm one is too small for me, thanks
Answer:

The Lacor steel ones, but if your hob isn't the right size it won't work for you.
Enrique Jiménez Perez
Question:

For a 21 cm hob, what paella pan size would you recommend? Best wishes
Answer:

The small 30 cm one.
Javier
Question:

Hi, for a 32 cm induction hob I've seen that you recommend the 38 cm paella pan, but from what I can see on the website it would have a 33 cm base diameter — would that work for even cooking?
Answer:

Yes, perfectly fine — it's only half a centimetre on each side.
José Luis Robles Pascual
Question: I have a 32 cm induction zone. Which paella pan would suit that zone? Kind regards.
Answer:

Hi José Luis. For a 32 cm zone the 38 cm one will suit you well, and the 42 cm one could also work. Kind regards.
Juan Antonio
Question: Good evening, I have a Teka TZ 6415 ceramic hob; the largest cooking zone is 210 mm. I'd like you to let me know which paella pan I could use, ideally for 4 portions. Happy New Year. Thanks and regards.
Answer:

Hi Juan Antonio. A 21 cm diameter zone is small for a paella pan for 4 people; in these cases the best option is to buy a separate paella gas burner. Kind regards.
Agustina
Question: Hi! My question is that my induction hob is 29.5 cm — which paella pan would you advise me to order?
Answer:

Hello Agustina, the 38 cm one would work very well for you. Kind regards.
elena
Question: Is this paella pan oven safe as well? Thank you
Answer:

Hello Elena. For the oven, the enamelled paella pans are better. Kind regards.
Jaime
Question: Hi!!! I'd be interested in a non-stick paella pan with a diffuser base, 60 cm across the base. Is it possible to order one? I have a 40 cm one, but as I cook with a very thin layer of rice, it isn't enough for many guests. Thank you so much!!!
Answer: Hello Jaime. There aren't any that large made specifically for induction. To get a 60 cm base you'd need a 65 or 70 cm pan. The largest induction paella pan we know of is 60 cm, which has a base of roughly 54 cm. Kind regards.
Alfredo
Question: Good afternoon. I'm looking for an induction paella pan and I'd like to know how tall they are, since I'd like one of about 6 or 7 cm. Thanks
Answer: Hello Alfredo, the height depends on the diameter of the paella pan; a 38 cm Garcima induction paella pan is about 5 cm tall. To get 6 cm of height you'd have to go for the standard 60 cm ones, which are already very big for induction. Perhaps a shallow casserole would suit your needs better. Kind regards.
Georgina
Question: Good afternoon. I have a query about the sizes of the paella pan on induction: if my largest induction zone is 28 cm, up to what size can the paella pan be? Many thanks
Answer: Hello Georgina, to make sure cooking is even across the whole paella pan it's advisable that it isn't much larger than the cooking zone, bearing in mind that the part that's measured, the top, is always a few cm wider than the base of the paella pan. So in this case we'd recommend the 34 cm one. Kind regards.
Abraham
Question: Hello, my largest induction zone is 24 cm; I'd like to know the maximum size of the Valencian paella pan for induction (polished), 34 or 38 centimetres.
Answer: Hello Abraham, for a 24 cm cooking zone we'd recommend the 30 cm one, 34 cm at most. Kind regards.
Francisco Núñez
Question: Good morning, this past Christmas we bought a polished steel paella pan for induction, but although we cleaned it very well before using it, we can't get the paella to lose the smell and even the slight metallic taste from the pan. How can we avoid it? Many thanks.
Answer: Hello Francisco, we don't have any purchase registered under your name or your email. Is this the same brand of paella pan that you bought? Best wishes.
Iñigo
Question: Hello there. I'd like you to tell me the base diameter of the 38 cm paella pan, as I have an induction hob with a max of 32. Thanks.
Answer: Hello Iñigo, on average it's usually about 6 cm less than the top of the paella pan. The 38 cm one will suit a 32 cm induction hob very well. Best wishes.
Miriam
Question: Good morning, I'm getting in touch because I've seen that you stock induction paella pans. Here's my situation: I have an induction hob with one large 28 cm zone and I'd like to buy a paella pan for my hob, but without needing to use a diffuser between the hob and the pan. There are currently 4 of us at home, but in the not-too-distant future there'll be 5, so I'd like to know which product you'd recommend for my needs. Kind regards and many thanks.
Answer: Hello Miriam, for paellas for more than 3 or 4 people we recommend a traditional ring paella burner and a paella pan of the right size, as that's how they turn out best. To make them on induction you can choose the 38 cm paella pan, but for 5 people it'll be a little small, and if you go larger it won't heat properly around the sides with the 28 cm cooking zone your hob has. Kind regards.
Miren
Question: Good afternoon, My ceramic hob is 21.5 cm in diameter. What size of paella pan can I buy? Thanks
Answer: Hello Miren, for the stock to boil evenly across the whole pan, go for the smallest one, the 30 cm. If it feels too small for you, the 34 cm would also work, but nothing larger than that. Kind regards.
Francisco
Question: In one of your replies you mention that you have induction paella pans in stainless steel or with a non-stick coating up to 50 cm in diameter (I take it that's the top), I'm interested in this diameter as my hob has up to 40 cm of induction area. If it's 50 cm across the top, will the base be just over 40 cm? Is stainless steel or non-stick better? Could you give me the details and price of this paella pan?
Answer: Hello Francisco, the paella pans we mentioned in that reply are only made to order. There are many models; you can see them all in the Lacor catalogue, which you'll find at the bottom left of this page under "catálogos". Once you've chosen the material and size you're interested in, let us know the product code and we'll prepare a no-obligation quote for you. Kind regards.
Francisco
Question: Good evening. I have an induction hob 40 cm in diameter. Do you have a paella pan with a base diameter suited to getting the most out of it in terms of number of guests? What would its top diameter be? Price if there's an enamelled one, and if not whatever you have? Thanks.
Answer: Hello Francisco. The largest classic paella pan for induction is the 38 cm one of the same model you're looking at, which you can also find enamelled in our online shop. There's also a slightly larger one, 40 cm, but it's non-stick; here's the link: http://conutensiliosdecocina.es/paelleras-y-paelleros/891-paellera-acero-inoxidable-antiadherente.html Remember that the size of paella pans is always measured across the top. Kind regards.
Obdulio Garcia Valdes
Question: I'd like to know the availability and price of a polished, thick-based paella pan for induction, 55 cm in diameter.
Answer: Hi Obdulio, what diameter is your induction hob? Kind regards.
Antonio
Question: Hello, I wanted to ask you a couple of questions. Why does the 38 cm diameter say it's for 4 servings, while the normal polished steel paella pan (not for induction) says 38 cm is for 8 servings? I understand that the 38 cm is the diameter at the top. What diameter do they have at the bottom, which is ultimately what makes contact with the hob's induction coil? Thanks.
Answer: Hello Antonio, honestly we don't know exactly; the manufacturer states it that way in its catalogue — we assume it's because it's thicker. But from our experience with customers, they're all for fewer servings than the manufacturer states. The bottom diameter for the 38 cm Pata Negra one is 33.5 cm. Kind regards.
Francisco
Question: Hello, I'd like to know which type of paella pan is best — steel, enamelled, aluminium, etc. I'm interested in a polished steel one for a ceramic hob; on my hob I have a 28 cm diameter, but I have doubts about the size and type. I'd be grateful if you could advise me. Thanks, regards.
Answer: Hello Francisco. The main difference between the polished and the enamelled one is in maintenance and sticking: the enamelled ones need no maintenance and food sticks to them less. On the other hand, the polished steel ones have to be dried well after cleaning and coated with a thin layer of oil so they don't rust. As for the diameter, if your burner is 28 cm, the 30 and 34 cm paella pans would suit you well. Kind regards.
Carlos
Question: The paella pan's label says 'special induction'... Can I use it on a ceramic hob? Thanks
Answer: Hello Carlos. Yes, it's suitable for ceramic hobs as well. Best wishes.
