Doing paella in a wok is posible but not adviceable because the rice need to be no deeper than a couple of inches. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I'm listening to the guy from Spain.

The carbon steel pans really do make a difference. They don't hold on to heat like cast iron, so you can toast the bottom without worrying about scorching it.
If you really like paella, I'd suggest picking up a carbon steel paella pan. They're pretty darn cheap and very versatile. They make the best cornbread odressing I've ever had...

According to Cooks Illustrated the best paella pan is the La Ideal Enameled Paella Pan. Its the only one they listed as highly recommended. I have not tried it myself.
