Can I use this method to my stainless steel wok with honeycomb finish something inside?
I said stainless steel when I meant cast iron skillet. Sorry. I'm in the hope that I'll see that on your video. I never check email so I didn't notice until today that you responded. Thank you for your help. I appreciate it very much.
hello, after cooking how are you supposed to clean it? just water or is dish soap like dawn ok?
If actual Cooking was taught in school, WE would not need these great videos, or Teflon.
Keep up the good work ladies, gentlemen, and all of you others.
We need you ALL!
Now more than ever.
In my day 🤣 cooking was an elective but I don’t recall learning about how to season pans
My wife made an omelet this morning. Stuck to the pan like crazy. Soaked it and cleaned the old oil out of it. Just finished seasoning using your method above with lard. Cooked another omelet and it came out perfectly. Thanks for making my life healthier. No more Teflon skillets for me.
Ed McHale excellent! This is my professional version I also have a beginner one. you can pretty much use any high smoke point oil. mostly I cook in my cast iron skillet and that is what my channel is about you should check out those videos my cast iron skillet is so shiny you could save your face in it. and to think it is been around since the early nineteen hundreds. I have some videos on how to do that as well. Thanks so much for letting me know how it turned out! It really means a lot
Cool!
Where can you buy lard?
*In the grocery section next to the vegetable oil. It comes in a square block and also in a large tub. Very cheap. Thanks for watching I appreciate you!*
Also fat is not "unhealthy". Just use as much as you need to cook. That's why food sticks. Because you people are neurotic.
Female here. So I *did* learn from my mom and Grandma, but that was decades ago and not like riding a bike. Thanks for being here to remind and re-teach people like me, and not coddle us.
Oh and that stove looks sooo much like the ones I learned on! The good old "they don't make 'em like they used to" stuff right there.
That is awesome!
7 years later I'm Female and watching you season the pan! Thanks!
*You’re welcome and thank you!
8 years later, same thing here. I prefer learning from people like this dude.
Just tried this seasoning approach on a cheap, thin, 10" SS skillet that food would stick to in a heartbeat. Applied 6 layers of a 1/3 grapeseed oil, 1/3 canola oil and 1/3 beeswax that was working well for my cast iron pans. I cooked scrambled eggs with just a pat of butter after warming and testing temp as u showed and there was absolutely NO sticking whatsoever! Eggs cooked perfectly and afterwards, just wiped pan clean with a paper towel and it's good to go! Can't thank u enough for posting this vid. I plan to invest in a higher-quality SS set and toss all my toxic nonstick pans now for good. Just awesome! Tks again!! 👍
*You’re welcome and thanks for the information! Big thanks for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you!*
I’m a 79 female and in an effort to get away from Teflon and back to the stainless steel I used to use and loved, I just bought a beautiful new stainless steel pan with the type of bottom yours has. I knew that I read somewhere that I could make stainless steel nonstick. This is certainly simple enough to do whenever it needs done again, but tomorrow I’m going to do this . I wanted a stainless steel fry pan with a lid, a thick heavy clad
bottom and expect with the extra handle on the opposite side because of my arthritis. I’m so happy I bought the stainless steel pan. I do love stainless steel and plan to enjoy it even more now that I know your method. So thank you.
*Hi Maureen! remember you don’t have to do all six seasonings in one day since you have another pan to cook with in the meantime. When cooking with stainless steel heat up the pan slowly it helps a lot. Don’t forget to teach the younger generation how to cook with stainless steel or even better antique cast iron. thank you for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you!*
*Also don’t forget to read the title and description of anyhow to Video. This is for advanced you want a beginners version it’s in the description box below this video.*
Michael that is nice of you to say. I am a Family nurse practitioner. I work in a clinic 2 days a week and I see old folks in their homes the other 3 days. My motto since I have to interact with lots of people, is "just be nice". works pretty well most of the time.
Yep if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. My mother taught me that.
This woman is watching your video and love your wit as well as instructions! Thank you!
*You’re welcome Rhonda! Thank you for watching.*
i am buying our first set of stainless steel and found this very helpful. oh, i am a woman viewer by the way and I actually DID learn to season cast iron from my Grandma!
Judith Johnson I think we all did! LOL thanks for watching! Please subscribe if you like Cast Iron cooking!
Judith Johnson check out the beginner version of this video on my channel if it is your first time seasoning. It is different than seasoning cast iron.
many people with the exxpensive stuff say they season theirs. I don't see why it would not help.
Judith Johnson you will also find if you go to the trollers Google page, they usually have nothing but negative comments on other people's videos there. It is like they wake up just to bad-mouth other people. But they are so transparent. I noticed that your Google Plus pages, are filled with nothing but nice positive comments. 😆
See what I’m talking about? Ha ha you guys check out my new video on how to make a smoked sausage and pepper sandwich!
I could listen to you talk all day ! Thanks for the video
*Thank you so much Erin! I’m not crazy about my voice, so it is nice to hear compliments on it once in a while. You’re welcome for the video, I hope you can subscribe my last three video recipes are out of this world!*
O you have nothing to worry about at all tour voice is amazing ;) I subscribed and caner want to see more ✌💚☺
Thank you so much for this video. I never knew you could season stainless steel. I also am moving away from nonstick pans so I’m actually moving back to stainless steel. So the fact that I could make my stainless steel more nonstick is a bonus. Thank you so much!
*I am so glad I could help you Thor!*
I’ve only ever seasoned cast iron and carbon steel. I did not know you could season stainless steel too. Thank you for this.
*You’re welcome! That’s why I made these videos, like the stainless steel playlist you saw at the end of this video. A lot of people don’t know this, they have their stainless steel pans put away because the food sticks. Please share this video with other people that don’t know how to do it, so if they won’t catch the cast-iron fever at least they will stop cooking on chemically coated teflon pans.*
Woman here. My most treasured (and frequently used) item in my kitchen is my grandmother's cast iron skillet. I grew up in her home....and there's almost a century of cooking that has been done in this pan. I keep it well "seasoned" at all times. Woe be it to the person that puts my skillet into a sink full of dishwater!!!!!
Awesome! I love my women viewers! Tell a friend there only 27% female viewers on my channel Lol most of them came for this video right here. If you like cast-iron cooking please subscribe! There is a video at the end of this video that shows how to season a cast iron skillet in detail.
@@CastIronCooking .... subbing up. ;-)
Saw this 5 years ago and had to come back just to make sure I was doing it right. Good job!
*Glad to have you back Thomas! Be sure to read the title and description of this video!*
I’ve cooked on a cast iron skillet all my life; passed down from my grandmother. She taught me to season it in the oven. This is very similar. Thanks for the tip because my husband prefers the All Clad set he bought and I’m going to season them for him.
Please do a TH-cam video to show us how to season stainless steel cookware in an oven.
I’m already 50 yrs old and cooking all my life for my family and wow just learned something new today lol.. thank. You👍😍
*I am 52 years old, and I still learn new stuff all the time!😂 You are very welcome Dolores!❤️*
Female viewer here and first time stainless cookware owner. I purchased a set of Cuisinart cookware today and am on here looking at how to cook with it. My grandmother and mother always cooked with cast iron and I have their skillets. Those things are as slick as a teflon pan and I love them but don't want to cook everything in them. Thanks for making this video. Now I know what to do before using my new pans!
Hey Sandra! You picked a nice set of cookware. I have a Cuisinart on my Amazon page. It is in the “about” section of my channel. You might want to try the beginner version in the playlist at the end of this video. Or you can click on the information card in the top right corner of the video, and you will see a playlist there as well. You might want to try the beginner version and the playlist at the end of this video. Or you can click on the information card in the top right corner of the video, and you will see a playlist there as well. Just make sure to keep a very close eye on the pan and soon as you see the first hint of smoke take it off of the burner and set it aside. Make sure you have more oil than you do on this video and when it completely cools and then wipe the excess off with a lint free paper towel. Let me know if you need any help. Please share this with your female friends on Facebook or social media. Especially people that are into Paleo, it is done best in a cast-iron pan. My demographics are showing that I have 73 percent male viewers and 27 percent female viewers. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! It means a lot.
No. You definitely want to cook everything in them! They add iron to your food (good). These add nickel to your food. (bad)
It took me several times of searching to get this video... and I'm so glad I found you!Can't tell you how much I appreciate this video! Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
I got a set of stainless steel pans for my wedding and I’ve seen so many videos on TH-cam about seasoning and they all don’t work. Several months later I found your playlist and all I can say is, THANK YOU.
*You’re welcome Hannah! I’m so glad I could help you.*
So, the seasoning has to be fone 6 -8 times in a row?
*Yes. But not all in one day, just cook on another pan if you don’t have time until you get it done.*
@@mariapaulagl no, it's just that the more you do it, more layer, the better it works.
*I do six times on my cast-iron cookware as well. Five times is not enough and seven times is too much. That is why I teach doing six times.If y’all need need more help, DM me on my Instagram page the link is in the description box below the video, or comment here on the video.*
I had no idea you needed to season a stainless steel frying pan, I use my cast-iron frying pan regularly and love it, but this I must try, thank you for the information.
WOW! Thank you for posting this. I never knew you had to season stainless steel. Explains why even my one expensive skillet makes everything stick. I love cast iron, but now I think I will come to love stainless steel.
You don't need to season it.
@@oysteinsoreide4323 ye it just needs to be hot enough
@@GreatPoland1232 yes, hot enough and enough fat depending on what you are frying. Frying eggs for instance can be a challenge, but is possible with the right technique.
@@oysteinsoreide4323 most of the time I'm cooking lean cuts of beef or pork and it's actually quite easy i just teast it with the water technique and then smear around a little oil around the pan
@@oysteinsoreide4323 Even when there are some food particles left i de glaze it with some strong liquor
I'm 70 years old and cooked an omelet in a stainless steel pan without it sticking for the first time in my life! Thanks so much for the video. I don't know if it was the seasoning you describe, or getting the pan to the correct temperature as described elsewhere in the TH-cam Universe, but seasoning definitely helped. One caution though, when the oil starts smoking, it is also perilously close to catching on fire. So everyone, please pay attention to what's going on, else something's gonna burn and it ain't your omelet.
I season mine by leaving it outside all year. It gets 4 seasons that way.
*I think you’re half serious about that! Ha ha*
🤣
Robert Kattner..now THAT's the sort of seasoning that would suit me...lol
Yup I do mine the same,
@@Xosidhe *You are totally wrong about who views my video! But you don’t have my TH-cam analytics though. Even then it can’t tell you if they have children or not. Remember it is better to be thought a fool, then two open ones mouth and remove all doubt! LOL*
Hi - just stumbled upon your video when I looked up cooking eggs in a stainless steel pan. I'm overjoyed to learn you cook with cast iron! I use 60% cast iron and 40% stainless. I grew up in the south witnessing my gramma's cookin' and cast iron was all she used. Her meals were delicious and completely home made. My grandparents were farmers. Every vegetable was grown and any meat was owned! Thank you for these videos!
+SunshineSkully You’re welcome! Please subscribe to my channel if you like my videos. Same history here! I did The stainless steel videos because not all people want to use cast-iron, and I just want them to get away from scratched up Teflon pans. If you have Facebook please share my seasoning videos to your friends that have Teflon. I have a cast iron seasoning a maintenance playlist for seasoning and also what to do after cooking in the pan. 🙂
So glad I found you. Never knew a stainless steel pan could be seasoned (no wonder my food would alway stick to the pan ). All this time I thought I was just a lousy cook. Thank you for sharing.
*You’re welcome Colleen! I’m glad you found my channel as well!*
Your food sticks because you don't have the stainless steel at the right temperature. These pans don't need seasoning they just need to be used the proper way.
I found you by searching how to season a stainless steel pan. I tried it and it worked great. My eggs float around like they are on air. Thank-you !
*You’re welcome! Did you see the video at the end of the video you mentioned? It shows you how to do the same thing on a cast iron skillet! Seasoning last forever on that but not on a stainless steel pan. Please share this video if you found it helpful to your Facebook page or wherever! Thanks for watching commenting and taking the time to subscribe I appreciate you!*
You aren't wrong,my gramma down south taught me how to season Cast Iron and Stainless when us kids used to spend summers down there. The year of the pandemic has got me back into cooking in a major way and I just wanted to make sure I was remembering this right. Thanks for a quick and concise video.
*So glad I could help! Please share this video with your friends on Facebook so we can accomplish what I wrote in my bio here on TH-cam!*
During the pandemic a lot of people became interested in the "old ways" of our grandparents and of folks that lived during The Great Depression. Here's some good news: Y'all are fixin' to BECOME those folks. 2023 will be harsh. Pay attention.
Hi, I’m a woman and have watched this video, I like it. It’s useful, I also dislike Teflon coated pots and pans !
I ve had as pans for a long time...same ol thing sticks...mess. I will watch the beginners video and try to get that look to my pans and cook with them. I will add your video to my likes here. In my opinion EVERYBODY needs to watch this video, or one other of your videos for their own good. Thank you for the information my pans thank you too😅🤗🙀👏🏻🤝
I am glad that you don’t like teflon Bonnie! Yes please do share this video on Facebook if you have it to spread the word that you can make that nonstick I have a Friday Video on the playlist video at the end here and also on the information card in the top right corner of the video. That is the product of making it nonstick like in this video. I also have a really good cast iron seasoning how to video that I try to spread on Facebook so people can do it right, and learn that they can have it nonstick and smooth like glass like my pans. It won’t wear off like Teflon and the pans are use or 100 years old or over and think of the stories they could tail!
I watched yesterday and did this today. Amazing, worked perfect. I made an omelet with no problems. All the years I have these great stainless skillets and buy Teflon that wears out and gets tossed.
Thank you very much!
*Congratulations Carol! You did the advanced version and had no problem. When I first learned how, I burnt the oil to the pan a couple of times. Ha ha Just make sure to treat it like cast-iron and don’t use soap when cleaning it. When things start to stick just let it soak in some warm water, until you can clean it with a sponge. I am trying to get the person cooking for their family and children to stop cooking on chemically coated pans like Teflon, so please share this video on social media, or to your friends that have stainless steel pans or cast-iron pans sitting in the cupboard, while they are using Teflon pans that have been scratched and the coating has chipped off. There is a very nice cast-iron seasoning video I made that can be seen at the end of this video, for people that use cast iron skillets. Thanks again Carol, I hope you like my channel enough to subscribe it really helps a lot!*
I am new to stainless , thanks alot much appreciated
You are so welcome!
I have two sets of 18/10 cookware and was about to buy a Made In Blue Carbon set just to get the non stick effect. So glad I looked up seasoning stainless steel and saw your video. Note: my mom taught me how to season cast iron, just didn't know I could do the same with steel. : ) I'll happily share the flax seed suggestion with her. Can't wait to try your cast iron Mac and Cheese! Thank you very much!!!
*Thanks for watching and commenting Mrs Douglas! I appreciate you!*
Thanks. I called my new stainless set the "everything sticks cookware"... I'll defiantly give this a try! Thanks.
From cooking in restaurants also ( 25+ years ago ) is how I learned this myself.
I only did one cycle, and we never sent them to the dishpit. Always hand washed at the line sink.
I used those green pans ( ceramic coated ) for awhile, but they eventually lost their nonstick quality quickly.
I’ll only stick with cast iron or stainless steel from now on.
Great video !
+GSXR RIDER Hey thanks! 😊
"and we never sent them to the dishpit"..... I read this as "and we never sent them to the dipshit". Laughed until I reread.
*Hahaha!*
@@ryanwest538 I also read dipshit hehehe
I agree with you that more me are getting into cast iron and stainless steel. I'm a male, and a bunch of us at work, also men, discuss what we make with cast iron and stainless steel. I guess because of how rugged they are, it seems okay for men to use and appreciate them publicly, LOL. Also, for health reasons, I've replaced all my non-stick, i.e. teflon, pots and pans with only cast iron and stainless steel. Thanks for your videos; I've learned a lot about cooking as well as maintaining the pots and pots. Thank you.
*You’re welcome and thank you for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you! I agree with you about the Teflon explain it all in my bio here on my TH-cam channel page. Merry Christmas thank you for your service!🇺🇸*
Thank you so much. Just got my first ss skillet and just checked to see if it had to be seasoned. Came across your video and now I'm all set. Am subscribed too as I have bought a Lodge cast iron skillet too but will embark on that adventure a bit later. And yes. I'm female and no hard feelings 😄
*Thank you for understanding! Ha ha You’re my kind of Chick! Make sure you do the beginners version of this video, the playlist is at the end of the video. I think it is in the description box as well. My skillets on my video are antique lodges, but they have sent me some to review before so I have a playlist for how to season and clean a Cast Iron Cooking were and the new skillet is in there. It is a little different because it is rough and grainy. Do you have any problems hit me up here, or on my Instagram DM for faster replies. It is in the description box below my videos. If you burn it the first time don’t worry most of us have! LOL I have a cleaning video and the playlist here that will show you how to strip it down if you do. But I have a feeling you were going to ace it your first time miss Furtado! Say hi to Nelly for me!*
Hello! You're awesome and thanks for the great videos! I came here because I was curious to see how you season your pans. I've seen some good advice and bad. Yours is right on the mark! I can't help but comment on what you said about most of your followers being men and it's odd because...It's pretty simple really. Most chefs, as you know are men, and women probably don't usually look at your videos because they already know how to do these things. Guys won't ask for directions even when they're lost (Thank you Google maps!!) and they won't read instructions when they put something together until it's a complete mess. A woman can give her man advice till they're blue in the face but it won't click until their buddy tells them the same exact thing and they run home to share this amazing advice with their, now stunned, wife or girlfriend. Most women already know what you're teaching because they learned from their mom or grandma. Some never cooked or never had that sort of upbringing so they will look for cooking advice. These days it's different too. in the 1980s women started raising their boys to know how to cook, clean, wash clothes, etc and their girls to mow lawns, etc. The point was to make them both self-sufficient and independent adults. They became young adults and the girls ended up going to work and dads became stay-at-home dads (not all but it was extremely common) along with a lot of other gender changes that changed the rules entirely. Now that's a whole other book, lol. But you get the gist. Men are amazing cooks/chefs, the women in their lives love that (and if the guy is single he gets a lot of girls being a chef), while women have been taught through generations how to since it was always our place to "cook, clean and rais babies". I'm not a feminist or one of those, chicks. I'm just a lady speaking the truth.
*Thanks for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you. Sorry TH-cam put your comment in my spam folder I’ll periodically check them.*
I love to use my Grannies cooking methods/recipes/ and pots/pans.
I'm 67 and will pass on to near and dear ones, If they can be bothered that is..
Thank you.
Regards from Scotland.
*That’s what I love about my cast-iron cookware. Some have been around since the 1800s and just think of all the stories it could tell! My mom and her sisters snatched up the cast iron my grandmother cooked with when she passed, and it will go on for generations. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Zainab!*
Thank you for making this video. I am so done with non-stick cookware. The non-stick works for about six months, then it starts sticking. I bought a stainless steel skillet, and love it. It will last me the rest of my life. No more buying non-stick crap pans an skillets ever again.
*You’re welcome Claire! I appreciate you watching and subscribing if you already have! Please share this with your friends on social media to help spread my message on my TH-cam bio!*
I love all my cast iron pots and pans and just pulled out my only stainless steel pan, cleaned it and thanks to you it is now seasoned. You will be surprised how many women use cast iron as well...
I have a 28% female audience, and I appreciate all of you! I Videos have been viewed in 195 countries. That’s all of them I think... but still only 27% unfortunately. Maybe you could share with your friends on Facebook and they will dig out there stainless steel pans, now they know they can be seasoned. For people that have trouble with Advanced version, they might want to try The beginners version in the information card at the top right hand corner of this, is a beginners version of this. Thanks for your support! Love your profile pic you have a beautiful family!
Very helpful thanks. How often do you need to re-do this if the pan is in daily use?
I never knew hat you need to, or could season stainless steel until I read about it on the internet. I have a pan where pretty much everything sticks , and I was going to throw it out a couple years ago, but still have it...I'm glad I didn't. Strange thing is I knew woks were seasoned, but I didn't think of applying it to pans, similar or same material most of the time
+Zoch Buppet yeah it's a lot easier when you season them because the food doesn't stick. Just don't put soap in it after you season it. It won't last as long as seasoning a cast iron skillet but it will last a good while. If you have already cooked in it then make sure to watch the stainless steel cleaning video with Bar Keepers Friend in the playlist and screen of this video. Thanks for watching and commenting! If you like custom cooking please subscribe!
Thanks Bro. Got me a SS pan from Santa. Big help. Your right, I can cook circles around my wife. lol
*You said it I didn’t!*
Lady viewer checking in. Really appreciate the informative videos, my cast iron & carbon steel skillets are in brilliant condition and I haven't cooked with anything else for a long time. I'm sure it'll make its way back into kitchens once again and we can stop this awful trend of teflon pans that need to be replaced 2-4 times a year. Keeping the craft alive 👍🏽
Peace :)
*Thank you so much for watching and commenting, I appreciate you. Please share this with your friends on social media that are struggling, and also the one at the end of this video on seasoning cast iron. Anything to get people away from cooking food for their kids, onTeflon coated skillets, especially scratched ones.*
I've managed to convince a couple of friends to make the switch, both of them have young families :) Will float the idea to the outdoorsy types too, cast iron is perfect over the camp fire.
What do you recommend for soups and acidic foods?
Already have a carbon steel for most of my food,, but want something to boil mostly
OutlandishFish knight why do you have to let us know you’re a woman lol?
*I recommend stainless steel if you don’t know how to use cast-iron. You already have carbon steel so it sounds like you are set. Acitic foods can be cooked in all of these if you know what you’re doing.*
Chick here! Thanks for this info! Just got the Kirkland set and I’m stoked to get started
*I love Kirkland brand anything! Especially their jeans can’t tell the difference between them and Levi’s! Thank you for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you!*
I would love to use cast iron skillets (no better way to make fried potatoes) but I can no longer lift them. I am looking into a good set of stainless cookware. Your video will help me so much, I didn't even know you seasoned stainless steel! LOL
*A lot of people don’t that’s why I made the video playlist! I love your TH-cam name, I have a cat named Skittles and she likes to fetch like a dog. She also comes to me when I whistle and say come here puppy. She is eight years old now and still a spoiled baby! There is a playlist of her fetching the ball and other things on my TH-cam channel just look for a Skittles the cat playlist!*
Thank you for your video!
I'm a woman and I use stainless steel and cast iron!
*Cool! Most of my female viewers watch the stainless steel videos not my cast iron videos! That is what I meant in the video lol*
*Since it is your first time, don’t forget to read the description box for the beginners version! Thanks again for watching!*
i never had a grandma, and learning this just now has changed my life! thankyou!

Female viewer here- your stainless ways are the BOMB. Thanks sir. Great channel.
I just got nickel free stainless steel which after some research I found most SS has the potential to leech nickel into our food if the SS becomes damaged from cooking or cleaning. Your seasoning then would prevent a lot of scratches that would allow that to happen which is good! Homichef has great nickel free SS and it's affordable on Amazon FYI
A Gosnay Thank you! If you haven’t season stainless steel I have a beginners version of this in the playlist video at the end of this video, or you can click on the information card in the top right-hand corner of the video at any time.As far as stainless steel leaching nickel into the pans comment there are two sides to every story Teflon companies put out articles like that to get you to buy Teflon and not stainless steel. Once people see three or four articles on it because people spread it all over the Internet without really knowing it’s fact. I always research oh sides of the story. I drink diet soda and I lost 120 pounds as you can see in my before and after weight loss photos on my channel here. Two videos on that. So everybody says aspartame is bad. Makes them feel better about drinking chemically altered corn syrup. It was put out by the corn syrup companies.Aspartame companies put out bad things about the corn syrup companies to get you to buy aspartame as well. So I started them to research both sides of the coin and what I found with them as they are both bad for you. Well technically aspartame isn’t bad for you it’s just not good for you. Because aspartame is not recognized by the body has any type of nutrient so it automatically goes through your body. But I have seen pans like yours and they are really nice! Always glad to see a female on my channel! They always let me know on this video. The stainless steel videos and the easy recipes in the microwave and the toaster oven are where my female viewership comes from. I’m just really glad that you were not using Teflon! Thanks again for all your support, it really means a lot.
Cast Iron Cooking Yea, Teflon is some bad stuff. I loved the beginners video and used that method-- thank you so much! I actually started researching fot nickel free SS after reading about it in groundwater. I then came across an article published by The National Center for Biotechnology Information and The U.S. National Library of Medicine research on tomato sauce a cooked in SS containing nickel showing a 21 fold increase in nickel and chromium when cooked in SS. When cooked without the presence of nickel the amounts of ni and ci remained the same. Out of the 4 sauces they tested all four had the similar levels after cooking in those pans, but zero changes in those levels when cooked with the nickel free SS so the material cooked in was the factor for this change. Food for thought. Delicious tomato sauce food for thought. For getting more pans than I needed and the nickel free utensils for $100 I figured it was well worth it.
Cooking in the microwave or toaster oven? What has this country become 😢 just kidding! Those are art forms I have not perfected yet- I just have a stove and oven. Maybe I should check those out! Happy Cooking!!
My broccoli with a real cheddar cheese in the microwave video is very popular and are use it all the time. Sometimes with cauliflower same rules apply and sometimes I mix them both. Those are both reliable sources, you have changed my view on stainless steel. I wonder if it has anything to do with The grade of stainless steel I think mine is like 85/25.
I would check out the broccoli one if I were you, and the Parmesan crusted chicken. Also the broiled pork chops. I cook them in the toaster oven but you can cook them in the regular oven. Thanks for the info, and thanks for letting me know that your pan came out well! 😊
Hello again! I was wondering if you could give me details on the stainless steel pan you bought. I would like to add it to my Amazon page. The pans I already have on there, or in the link at the bottom of this video.
Thank you for the demo, was just about tearing my hair out as the pan stuck to my egg. Now I have seasoned it, the smoke alarm went off but man, it is now so smooth and the egg just slipped on the plate. Many many thanks
I love the minions! Well I was going to suggest the beginner video to you as this one is the advanced. But you did it and you should be proud of yourself! Just treat it like a cast-iron pan now and don’t put soap in it. If things take a little later on just let it soak a minute or two. It will not stay forever like cast-iron so you will be doing it again down the road. So glad you’re not using Teflon coated pans! If you like cooking and cast-iron please subscribe you can also cook my dishes in stainless steel as well. I have a playlist for food I cook on stainless steel.
how long does the non-stick surface last for?
As long as you season it six times, and don’t cheat and you don’t use so after cooking and treat it like a cast-iron it should last a long time. You don’t have to do all six in one day. I never do but if you look at the seasoning video that pops up at the end of this video, and you have a cast iron skillet that will last forever if done the way I instruct. If you’ve never done it try the beginner version, click the little white i (information card) in the top right-hand corner the video to find it.
wow thanks a lot :D
just one question about this part > "use so after cooking"
i presume the "so" = soap
Ha ha! I think that was made when I was still taking medication after my mom died to deal with it. She was my best friend. If you go back and watch my old videos, you will get a kick out of them there are a lot of comments of me being either drunk or on drugs. I do neither! LOL but if you subscribe to my new videos sound better, but I was born to mumble! My son is the same way.
I’m female and love using cast iron ❣️ Thank You for this informative video.🙏🏼
*You’re welcome!*
Thank you, I just bought my first All-Clad stainless steel pan, I knew they had a learning curve (grew up with non-stick) and im seasoning my pan now
*Sorry I didn’t see this 10 hours ago. At the end of the video did you see the playlist? It has the beginners version in it. It is also in the information cards at the top right hand corner of the video while you are watching. Even with the beginners version I’ve burnt the oil to the pan, and made everything stick and it turned a little golden color. If you have burnt the oil to the pan already, there is a video in the playlist that will show you how to strip that oil off. If you don’t have access to this product it is in my Amazon store the link is in the description box as well. I used barkeepers friend powder form but I saw the premixed so you don’t have to make a paste. The first time I did it. Nobody taught me hell, I just experimented on my own. That’s how I know that six times is the magic number. The beginners version is also in the description box below the video. Did you see the seasoning video showing at the end of this video? Seasoning cast iron will last a lifetime if done properly and taken care of properly. Stainless steel only last about 12 times if you do it correctly and don’t use soap on it like cast-iron. When it starts to stick just let it soak for a little while.*
Thank you!! My neighbor tried to toss out a lovely little vintage Farberware Aluminum Clad Stainless Steel omelet pan recently, and I said nooooooooooo! And grabbed it! ~ I was so excited, remembering how much I loved mom's old Aluminum Clad and Revere Ware from the '50s..... until every darn thing I tried to cook in it stuck like it was in love or somethin'!
I'm on 'stage 3', with 3 to go! Yay! Can't wait to cook with it WooooHoooo! Thank you!
*Wow you are very talented! This is the advanced version, the beginners version is in the playlist at the end of this video, or in the information card while watching the video located in the top right hand corner. Same thing happens with me and cast iron pans! It’s much more rewarding restoring your vintage pan then it is buying Teflon! Cast iron and stainless steel pans last forever!*
@@CastIronCooking - Hahahahaha! I picked up a nice 12" cast iron pan at the Goodwill a couple years back. Got it home, greased it up and popped it upside down in the oven 'til it was nice and black..... There's nothing better than a big Dutch Baby (soufle/german pancake) that's been baked in a proper cast iron pan! A little powdered sugar, squeeze of lemon... and I was popped right back to my childhood ♥
Teflon can NOT replace that! (now, if only I had my vintage gas range, with the griddle in the middle of it.... sigh!)
*Cast iron skillet’s make everything taste better, and it enhances and brings out the flavor of the food. Won’t cook cornbread in anything else. Or ham steaks, got a spiral for 99 cents and have been cooking the heck out of it on my cast-iron skillet! I have some photos and a short video I think on my Instagram page. It’s in the description box below my video, we could follow each other!*
@@CastIronCooking - Sweet! Thrift stores have hidden treasures, for sure! I passed up a Revere 8 qt pot one day because I was broke.( it was only $10..but, you know...) An elderly neighbor had a fit, and drove me back down there to get it, claiming.... 'Are you NUTS?!?! I'LL get the pot for you! Hahahaha, I love 'real' cookware, for sure!
And, I'd be honored for a 'follow'! I'm currently preparing to launch my own podcast 'series', and am hoping it's successful. It'll be on everything from 'fact based, non-partisan socio/political impact show', to DIY Re-purposing for people with limited funds and tools, to 'How cute do YOU think my kitties are?"... LoL Right now, all I have is videos of me with my band ♥
Elizabeth Nash *I would love to see videos of you and your band! I will definitely follow you back on Instagram and maybe send you a DM with my personal link there!*
Had no idea you could season SS thanks for the information
*Yes ma’am! Be sure to try the beginners version, the video is in the playlist showing at the end of this video. Thanks for watching and commenting!*
My mum gave me a cast iron skillet some 30 years ago.
My boyfriend hated that pan, and packed it away.
I recently found it and he wanted to throw it out. (!!)
Of course, it wasn't seasoned and it sat in a box for 30 years. I scrubbed it clean because it was quite icky, and looked up your vid to re-season it.
It's still my favorite pan to fry stuff in. So much better than the teflon ones. :)
PS my regular pots are also stainless steel. Now I just have to find a decent wok!
I do like to cook my fried eggs in oil tho... :)
*I also cook my eggs in oil or butter using the vegetable oil spray was the show how nonstick it was not really a cooking video. Same thing for my cast iron skillet version at the end of the video. I have all the good Brands of stainless steel and cast-iron cookware in my Instagram store the link is below the video not sure if I have a wok though.If I don’t and you find a good one please let me know in the comments here and I will put it in my store thank you so much for watching and commenting I appreciate you!*
@@CastIronCooking You'd think you'd find a decent not non-stick wok in a culinary place like France... but I'm still hunting lol.
Thank you for the fantastic information!! I wish I could have learned anything from my grandmothers--we moved quite far away when I was 11 so I never had the opportunity, so watching you share these tips is the next best thing!!
Stacey M Thanks! I aim to please Stacey!!!
My grandma cooked everything with lard in her cast iron skillet. Best fresh fried chicken ever. My mom cooked everything in lard in a stainless steel Revere pan that I still use today. In fact, now I want to fry up some applewood thick sliced bacon with eggs. Great video 💪
*You’re welcome William! Thanks for subscribing if you already have. My grandmother cooked in lard and my mother cooked in Crisco in a cast iron pan.*
I have alot of cast iron around the house sooo now Im just starting to use them. I also recently got a cute copper bottom Revere ware skillet so this is perfect. Thanks for sharing. I have also one Glass visions skillet I am re learning how to use.
*That’s awesome! Those are nice.*
Love cast iron, the more you use it the better it will get, also use only hot water to clean as soap pulls out the oil from the skillet
@@cj-sp8ed ...maybe that's where I was going wrong.
@@thetowndrunk988 lol that's basically what I said, you still have to rinse with hot water to clean it. As far as the carbon it has to build up over time, that's why I said the more you use it the better it gets
Thanks bro this is my go to seasoning video , much love
Hope you enjoy

If this is true then I say: Someone who is in a maximum security prison and uses illegally obtained cellphones to watch videos about seasoning cookware probably doesn't need to be kept in a maximum security prison...
There are many who appreciate your sharing tips; and statistics.
Ha ha thanks Lynn! Without the stainless steel videos, I would have no female viewership at all! Please share this video on your Facebook or social media’s, so we can get families especially children away from Teflon chemical coated pans!
Thanks! We've been using cheap hand me down pots waiting to buy stainless steel since we can never use cast iron again.
I love my cast iron skillet which my grandma gave to me,and I have a couple of SS ones hidden in back of my pantry,this video made me want to give them a chance,and no my grandma never told me about this! Thanks so much!
+Evita Q Calderon You’re welcome! If you were going to season stainless steel, try the beginner Video in the playlist at the end of this video. I recently made a cast-iron re-seasoning Video, if you want to try that. It is for flaxseed oil but I also give directions for lard. Thanks again!
Concerning the smoothness of the pan interior, you can wet sand them with “wet or dry “carborundum sandpaper. A good bit of elbow grease and some 400 grit then 600 grit norton sandpaper can turn your $50 budget clad pan into $250 performer.
It will change the interior finish appearance to a random swirl pattern, but it works great. I nearly lost two beaten eggs testing the pan I just sanded. It was so nonstick that the eggs slid across the surface so well, they nearly “jumped the fence” . It is a $50 stainless clad wok. I used coconut oil to season it.
*My way sounds a lot easier, and mine slide around also lol. I have a video on just that it is in the playlist at the end of this video, or you can click the information card at the top right-hand corner of this video it anytime to find it. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, it means alot!*

The man/women thing; interesting you notice. Myself, a male & living in an apartment, not a house that I can do Do it yourself projects as much. Deprived of an outdoor area & shed, I'm always looking for little improvements & old fashion ways to do stuff. Anyway, this is the best seasoning advise I've come across so far. A bunch of good tips, & details. Cheers pal.
*Thanks for taking the time to stop and comment Joshua, I appreciate you!*
Cool video. I'm female and have ditched all my cheap Teflon non stick and only use stainless steel now. I also use the "water bead"test each time before using my pans to ensure they are non stick. I will be trying your method.
*Of course you are Melissa! Like I mentioned in the video, most of my female views come from stainless steel videos. I hope you can someday switch over to cast-iron cookware, but stainless steel is great only the seasoning doesn’t last forever like cast iron. I think you’ll like the video that is shown at the end of this video, and also the playlist and the information cards at the top right hand corner of the video.😉*
@@CastIronCooking The only time I have used cast iron is when camping. I would love to do more of it at home but I'm little and it gets a bit heavy for me.😁
I'm an Estate Sale junkie. I have quite a few vintage cast iron pans. I need to start selling the ones that I don't use to often. A few years ago I stopped at a sale that the family was doing, not a Estate Sale company. Anyway I had made a few piles of things that I wanted to buy including maybe 20 +/- old Revere Ware pans lids. I asked the lady there what I owed her for it. The pans were in one pile and other odd things were in other piles. For the other piles she wanted $10.00 for the pans she said $5.00. It was one of those couldn't get the money out quick enough moments. Now that I know how to season them I can get rid of my Non-Stick pans.
*Yay! I am in South Carolina right now where there are plenty of cast-iron but they won’t let me bring it back on the plane unfortunately!Sounds like you got an awesome find! I love estate sales.*
😂love your comment about not enough women watching this video! But count me in as I “watched” the video and LOVED IT!❤ Learning something new (for me) and useful is very gratifying. Thank you for sharing your skills.👍🏽
*So glad you could drop by Rachel! I appreciate you watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you!*
Just got a really nice SS pan and I’d like to take my time seasoning it. If I were to use the low and slow method and do 6 coats, how long should I expect it to last? I’m just looking for a rough estimate, i.e. 10-15 meals, 5-6 meals, etc. I’ll obviously keep an eye on it but just wondering what to expect. Thanks for the video!
*If you are talking about my beginners version, located in the description link below the video, that sounds about right. It will last longer if you treat it like cast-iron and do not use soap. If it starts to stick a little just let it soak in some warm water for a little while. Thanks for watching!*
Cast Iron Cooking thanks for the quick response. I was referring to this video at the 2:24 mark when you said if you do it on low and you do it slower and longer the seasoning is going to last longer. I was just curious as to how much longer to expect. It’s been great so far. Thanks for the video
@@CastIronCooking hi I also am a bit confused on how long it will last before doing another seven (my favorite number) of smoking seasoning.
*I would say about 10 to 15 times, If you treat it like cast and don’t use soap. If you season a cast-iron skillet it will last a lifetime*
*Now that you have seasoned your stainless steel pan, check out my nonstick eggs on a stainless steel pan Video! **th-cam.com/video/TrCaN_5LDW8/w-d-xo.html*
Thanks for the video. I’ve seasoned both cast iron and my stainless for years, but I’m glad to see that it’s just not me doing it. I am curious as to why you don’t use Bar Keepers Friend on the bottom of the pan keeping it clean for even heating and distribution, appearance, etc?
I do clean the bottom with barkeepers friend every once in a while. If I had anywhere to hang my pans I would so it wouldn’t end up like that on the bottom. Thanks for watching!
I’m a woman - thanks for this - I got new pans for Christmas! Nice to know how to season the fry pans.
*Love your TH-cam handle!*
You are welcome....you deserve the compliment and I appreciate your response.
thanks for all the knowledge you put up on youtube! Hey, is it ok if after smoking, lard turns out a little bit brown and sticky? then I remove it with a paper towel
*Brown and sticky means you burned the oil to the pan because you did the advanced version and not the beginners. Be sure to read the title and description of how to videos before you try them. Everybody burns it the first time, go ahead and use it and when it is too sticky to use look at the playlist at the end of this video, and use my cleaning video to make it brand new again so you can season it properly.

I just got some nice AllClad stainless steel fry pans. How often should I season them? Just before first use?
No you will season them six times in the beginning so you don’t have to season them again. It explains it in this video, but this is for advanced. Click on the playlist in the top right-hand corner of the video in the information card. Or at the end of the video on the end screen. Basically same instructions on how to do it in the beginning version but it is a different amount of oil you will use. Let me know how turns out! 😊 make sure there are no white deposits before you season like on the thumbnail photo of my stainless steel cleaning video.
I have all clad pans on my Amazon site in the description link. I have been thinking about adding more stuff and would love to hear any suggestions! I have all clad pans on my Amazon site in the description link. I have been thinking about adding more stuff. I only cook with cast-iron and sometimes stainless steel, so it has to be related to those two. 😊
Cast Iron Cooking how about utensils to cook with SS? Any gadgets you find useful, and what they are for and how to use them
Do you do any canning ? Recommendations there. Lids to use on odd ball pans or pots gosh we can think of lots of things for you to mention
For us to find useful also, or for gifts for others. Your favorite brands of oil, etc. and uses for each mention
We would like to hear lots from you just follow along those lines on things to put on your spot? Web site?

thanks for layin' it down THICK dude.
Thank you so much for your video... I am a female... I gave away all my Teflon pans and bought a high quality Stainless Steel skillet with thick bottom... I really loved it at first, but now everything sticks terribly, so I needed to see this video... It is very helpful, thank you.... I used to use nothing but cast iron many years ago and I do love them also... I knew how to season them but did not know about seasoning the stainless ones... I must look again for lard... I have tried several times to find it, but I never found lard for sale here where I live on Vancouver Island.

Just found your channel! And so glad I did! I have watched others do the water deal to cook on ss. I thought to myself as I tried their techniques that there must be a better way! Thank you so much for the information! I had no idea ss was so similar to cast iron!
*So glad you’re here Rose! Thank you for watching and subscribing if you already have I appreciate you!*
I just bought a brand new stainless steel roasting pan, does the same process apply to a roaster pan?
Yes season in the bottom of the pan six times. Then after that only use water like you would in cast-iron to clean it.
Dls chnell I
My latest teflon pan stopped being very non-stick a few months ago, and it's less than a year old. It's also my fourth in ten years. Time to start experimenting with this...
*Yay! No more chemical coating!*

Cool trick. Will have to try this on one of my All Clad saute pans and see how it works.
it works on stainless steel and carbon steel
this is the advanced version I have a easier version in the playlist in the information card at the top right-hand corner of the video
Longer than that! I usually never do six seasonings in one day, on cast-iron or stainless steel. I live in an apartment with a pet and don’t want it to get to fumes. Plus I don’t have the time. Ha ha I appreciate all your support Paul!
Lard is the ONLY way to season! I love your instructional videos. Down to earth and factual.

I'm somewhat of an aficionado of cast iron, and I've been viewing various videos dealing with seasoning pans, but this is definitely the first time I've heard of seasoning stainless. I had always heard that cast iron needs to be seasoned in order to protect the pan from rust and to help it become stick-resistant, but I've never heard of seasoning a stainless pan. I was told that they don't need it because they don't rust. And if you can't see any blackening, is the seasoning really sticking? How does seasoning stainless change the cooking surface? Is it non-stick after seasoning?
+Berkana yes it will make it non-stick that is the only purpose of it. Eggs will slide around instead of sticking. It will not last forever like cast iron but you will get a lot of cooking out of it as long as you don't use soap to clean it afterwards the same as cast iron. If you like cast-iron Please Subscribe and also check out my last video on how to properly season a cast iron skillet. You don't want to see any black and then you just want to follow the instructions that I give. Also this is the advanced version I have a beginner's version for first timers as stated in the description box. If you have cooked on it before then you will need to watch the stainless steel cleaning video If you see the little white deposits in your pan like on the thumbnail photo of that video. There are a million different ways to season a cast iron pan. Some are good some are not. And all I can say is look at the mirror like finish on my cast iron pans if you want to get it that way that is the video to learn how to do it but you have to follow the instructions to the letter. Thanks so much for watching!
I never use soap on my stainless steel because the seasoning is not polymerized like it is on cast-iron. I treated the same way as cast-iron and rinse it out with warm water and sometimes things I’ll stick so I will soak it for a few minutes.
Brother, I have to thank you for the video. I received my All Clad 10 inch fry pan a couple weeks ago and seasoned it with lard. It works like magic.
*Hey Geo! Glad to hear you got your pan, even more glad that it worked out for you! Don’t forget to treat it like cast-iron after seasoning it and don’t use so to clean it. Just let it soak when you clean it and don’t use any abrasive pads. Happy cooking!*
How often are you seasoning it? Every 2 meals? Every 10?
@@andersstengaardjensen2208 I actually stopped seasoning it because the manufacturer doesn't recommend it. All Clad recommends heating the pan properly, adding a small amount of fat. Then cleaning and drying it thoroughly afterwards.
@@geomondiale1768That's the proper way. Stainless doesn't need seasoning.
I'm female & take absolutely no offense! I cook with nothing but cast iron & stainless steel! I'm a foodie...I love it! If taken care of properly these pans will not only last our lifetime's, but that of our children as well! Thank you!
*Plus you won’t be cooking on chipped Teflon that goes into the food eventually! I meant no offense, just what I observed and I keep it real, like it says on my bio. I love your name by the way Nicole! Very pretty I always have liked that name.*
I bought a new set of Stainless cookware a short time ago after reading that I could make it non-stick. After trying a bunch of different methods, failing over and over again, I ran across this video. I was led to believe that flax seed oil was the way to go on stainless as well as cast iron. I tried that multiple ways and wound with a first class mess and no non-stick. I also tried lard and coconut oil but the other videos failed to tell me what I really needed. This one does, and it points out that flax seed oil doesn't work on stainless and why. Follow these instructions and pay close attention to the end of the video where he says to repeat 7 times. I did, and while that takes a while, I have fried eggs sliding all over my SS pan. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I only wish I saw this one first.
+Ken Brown I live for complements like These Ken! Thanks a lot! Yes there is a lot of false information out there on stainless steel and cast-iron. Stainless steel Never be seasoned with flaxseed oil. Only carbon steel pans and cast-iron pans because they have a more porous surface. Never go by what people say the proof is always in the pudding. My videos are the pudding. If you have social media like Facebook please share my seizing videos on stainless steel and cast-iron, so we can educate people and give them many happy years of cooking, and they can teach it to their children and their grandchildren. 👍😊
Do you have any advice for us on what to do if for some reason I get just a couple of spots that do stick without destroying the non-stick surface? I tried frying an egg without any oil, stuck in a couple small spots. I tried water only, then I used a stainless scouring pad rubbing lightly, then I re-seasoned once. Seemed to work but these is probably a better way.
+Ken Brown I would’ve tried beginner version first, this one is advanced and it is harder to do. Also you always want to use butter or oil when you’re cooking in a pan.You can use nonstick spray since you seasoned that that will work. But if I were you I would use it up Until it sticks a lot, and start over with the barkeepers friend and the stainless steel cleaning Video, at the end of this video there is a playlist. If you have cast-iron I recommend it because the seasoning will last forever if done properly, like I so and my cast-iron seasoning Video. But since you already have stainless steel I would just work with that.
I have another larger pan so I'm going to do that next with bacon dripping as in your beginner video. I'll post my results.
+Ken Brown Lard works the best But that’ll work as well, Just make sure you don’t have those white deposits on the thumbnail photo of my cleaning video. Difference between the beginner and the advance is the process itself. You keep your eyes that I level with no distractions in the background, and as soon as you see the first hint of smoke yank it. If it is smoking then you waited too long, and very possibly if you wait too long you’ll see a yellow sticky parts. That means that you either did not put enough oil, or you let it smoke too long.Know how it turns out Ken!
Viva paper towels work best, they don’t leave any lint prices behind. Blue sop paper towels work great too, they are made to not leave lint behind.
Imagine I am following your tips after I have decided to use my long forgotten pan. The first time I use it, was a disaster and I packed it away until now. Thank you so much. My grandmother used clay pots a long time ago in Southern Africa 🤣🤣🤣.
*Make sure to strip down anything that was burnt to the pan before doing this. I have a playlist in this video showing how to strip it down, it is at the very end and also in the information cards at the top right hand corner while watching. There is also the beginners version of this video. I do not recommend it unless you have done it before, I prefer lard that’s what you must use to get the same affect I do and season it six times. You don’t have to do it all in one day. I do imagine that scenario all the time, and that is why I broke from my cast iron skillet videos to make this stainless steel seasoning and cooking playlist. Clay pots! I bet her food was delicious! My grandmother made the best food, even better than my mom and my aunts!!*
Great video, one question though: I understand never washing the pan with soap after seasoning as it would obviously wash the non-stick coating that you just created away.
What if you cook a steak or something and then deglaze the pan with white wine for example. Will you have to do all the seasoning shown in this video again after that?
*Just let the pan soak in some warm water as long as it takes so you can wash it off with a sponge just like you would cast-iron.*
I have the exact same pan but in non stick. I've had it for a decade now, and the nonstick finish is nearly as good as the day I bought it. I just bought a set of all clad SS.
Love this helpful video. I bought myself a set of All Clad stainless for Christmas..followed your instructions before use. Worked perfectly!
I just bought a 13 piece set from Macy’s. THEN I saw the reviews of how ppl were mad bc everything sticks or the pan changed color after one use. I was worried but now I feel a lot better.
