Machika 13" Carbon Steel Paella Pan, 34cm Polished Steel, Large Spanish Skillet, Indoor, Outdoor, Camping, Spanish Paella Parties, Imported, Made in Spain

I am really disappointed that the bottom of this pan doesn't sit flat. I specifically bought this very expensive paella instead of one of the cheaper brands because the reviews of the cheap ones quite often mention they warp and then won't work well on an induction stove top. I have an induction stove top and didn't want this problem so spent more than 5 times the price to avoid the problem. Took this pan out of the box and it rocks back and forth on the stove top. I haven't even heated it yet. It is literally brand new and unused and doesn't sit flat.

This is a great product, to make good food, so you need to ne a good owner too. If you are a mess or don't know how to fry an egg, you better wait for your paella in your next summer vacation in Valencia. Before the first use (not negociable): First thing to do; (1) Boil water in the pan. (2) Wash it with soap as if you just cooked in it. Season your pan: (1) Lightly coat the pan with oil. I used canola. (2) Put in the over at 450° F for about 30 mins, until you see that the olcoat of oil is not shiny anymore. (3) Repeat steps 1 and 2 at least 3 times. The more time the darker your pan will be. I did 3 coats total. (4) Let it cool off in the oven after your last coat. Once cold, oil again and store as much time as you want. When ready to use: (1) Heat your pan for a few minuted before start cooking. (2) Don't scratch with pointy tools. If so, you will have to season again soon. After every use: (1) Clean right after you eat your parlla. Don't let it seat overnight. And wash by hand. Don't scratch too hard, but don't need to be ultradelicate. (2) Once totally dried, spread a thin coat of oil as you did in the last step once coated. Do this every time that you wash your paella pan. The pictures and videos that I am sharing are from August 2025.

This pan was a gift for my granddaughter and her fiance. When they opened it,they were very pleased. They haven’t used it yet, but are looking forward to cooking some delicious paella!
