24" Stainless Steel Paella Pan (60 cm)Serves 9 to 16 people, depending on how thin or thick your layer of rice is (thinner is preferable but gives fewer servings). This pan size works best on an outdoor grill or a firepit. It is too large for most standard stovetops, though it might work on some professional-style ranges. This paella pan has a dazzling mirror finish that makes a great first impression, but it's also very functional. Made from high-quality 18/10 stainless steel with gold handles, the pan is sturdy and rigid, with the classic dimpled bottom. Be aware that the pan is made of a thin, single ply metal, so it is not meant for high-heat sauteing but rather for cooking rice dishes; it will overheat if left over a direct flame without food in it. It's maintenance free, with no seasoning or special cleaning required. And it makes wonderful paella. It's also a great choice for people who like to keep their pans on display. It will be the centerpiece of your kitchen. It also makes a singular and memorable gift.
