Paella pan Vaello REF2160

A 60 cm aluminium lid designed to cover large catering pans and stock pots, cutting down on grease and steam that escape during boiling, simmering or shallow frying. The metal surface reflects some of the heat back into the pan, so the liquid inside stays hotter with less energy. At the same time, the tight fit traps steam, keeping food moist and reducing the need to add water or fat as the dish cooks.

The lid rests directly on the rim of the pan, creating a seal that stops splashes from reaching the hob or worktop. This keeps the cooking area cleaner and cuts the time spent wiping down surfaces between services. Because the lid is lightweight, it is easy to lift with one hand while the other holds a ladle or spoon, so the chef can check or stir without setting the lid aside.

Made from high-grade aluminium, the lid resists corrosion and does not warp under the repeated heat cycles of a busy kitchen. The smooth surface is simple to wipe clean after use, and the metal does not absorb odours or stains from acidic ingredients.

The 600 mm diameter matches standard professional catering pans and stock pots, providing full coverage without overhang. The lid is sold as a single piece and fits any pan of the same width, regardless of brand or material.

Cleaning is limited to wiping the surface with a damp cloth or sponge; no detergents or abrasives are required. The lid should be stored flat or hung to prevent bending.
