Stainless steel pans make a bright and eye-catching display in the kitchen, but when it comes to using them there seems to be a universal problem: Everything sticks to the surface. It seems no matter what you use for oil or what temperature setting you use, you end up with the same caked-on mess.
But there's a knack to cooking in stainless steel, and once you learn the process you'll find that cooking successfully in stainless steel isn't too complicated.
Instructions
1. Turn on the burner to the desired heat setting and set the dry pan on the burner.
2. Allow the burner and the pan to preheat to the desired temperature, approximately five minutes.
3. Add the desired amount and type of cooking oil, as stated in the recipe you are following.
4. Turn the pan slightly with a circular motion to evenly coat the bottom and sides of the pan with oil.
5. Proceed with your recipe, adding ingredients as desired. Your food will not stick to the stainless steel pan.
