HOW TO MAKE  THE FIRST USE OF A PAELLA OR PAELLERA

In the following article we will teach you how to make the first use of your paella pan. The first use of the paella pan is very important because we must remove the protective layer that it has from the factory, this layer protects it from oxidation, but it should not be left because it could alter the flavor of our rice.

To remove this layer, we must carry out a heat treatment which will also serve to tan the iron against possible deformations caused by heat. To do this we must fill the paella with water and boil it for about 10 minutes. Following this, remove the boiled water and clean it with soap and water, dry it well and apply a layer of vegetable oil, a simple way to do it is by rubbing it with a sheet of kitchen paper. This layer of oil will protect it from rust until its next use.
