    I love how short and simple your videos are. Sometimes I don't want to spend 30 minutes on a video trying to learn how to cook my eggs without completely ruining them. I wanna eat, dang it! Haha, thank you!!

    This is a great tutorial. For those with induction, I've found that only lowering it a notch or 2 works better than all the way to low. I experimented with my cooktop to find the level that will reach the leidenfrost point. It doesn't continue heating past that. Lowering it just a bit ensures the eggs don't cook too fast. Lowering it to low will cool the pan too much, and you will get a little sticking.

    This method worked perfectly on my gas stove! Thank you so much! I'm 53 years old and this is my second time in my life to buy stainless steel pans because I'm determined to learn on them. I'm tired of buying pans every couple of years, minus my 2 cast irons I have. My Tramontina Tri-Ply Clad set came in yesterday (thanks to the amazon gift cards from Christmas from my family) and this is the first thing I cooked after watching this video. YAY! I'm so excited! What a blessing!! THANK YOU!

    Thanks for posting this! I see EVERYONE saying you have to heat the pan to the glass ball stage, but almost no one says you have to cool the pan or you'll ruin your eggs!
    Scrambled eggs want to be cooked low and slow, I definitely wait a minute at least to add my eggs.

      That's mostly because you can't really flip the eggs quickly enough to avoid burning the outside before the center is properly cooked.

      When he says lower the heat to low and wait 5-10 seconds....uh that may work on a gas stove because the lowered flame will drop the temp rather quickly. But it looks to me like that's an electric smooth top stove or induction I can't tell. My smooth top electric is going to take a lot longer than 5-10 seconds to drop down to a low temp. Anyone?

    • @BCSpecht89
      @BCSpecht89 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      When I got my first Le Creuset 5-quart oven, I was very disappointed with it because I didn't know how to preheat it properly. My foods wouldn't brown. They would just stew slowly. For a cast iron pan this size you need to preheat it for 5 or 6 minutes with the pan empty. Start with low heat for the first 2 or 3 minutes, then gradually turn up the heat until it is at the temperature that you want it to begin cooking. Only after preheating properly should you add any cooking oil. Wait for the oil to begin to shimmer, then add the food. I wish I'd known this from the beginning. It would have saved me a lot of frustration.

  • @theredbar-cross8515
    @theredbar-cross8515 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

    Turning down the heat is tricky. If you're adding a lot of food to the pan, turning down the heat beforehand will let the heat drop too much, too fast, and you'll get sticking.
    It works well for a few eggs because eggs have low specific heat, meaning it doesn't take much energy to heat them up.

    • @PrudentReviews
      @PrudentReviews  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      For pancakes, you can preheat on medium low heat and just use butter. You don’t want to get the pan as hot and don’t need the Leidenfrost Effect. Since the batter firms up and the exterior becomes dry, it’s not as prone to sticking as eggs. Not 100% sure about crepes, I haven’t cooked them in stainless steel.

    Bought a Heritage Steel pan and it looked like a learning curve was going to be needed. I prepared the surface as suggested but still had sticking issues. It's a bit big for my induction cooker so I also bought a smaller ceramic pan. Wow, is this thing easy to cook on as I've already made 4 meals with it with no issues paying particular attention to never using high heat. A temperature of 275 cooks eggs perfectly with zero issues and I've fried frozen rice easily and believe this will be my main go to.
    I was using a Mr. Induction for years which was difficult to keep clean with all its joining surfaces but it worked well enough to prove induction cooking was superior.
    Just got a Nuwave Pic Gold and it feels very luxurious and easy to keep clean compared to Mr Induction which they seem to still be selling(good grief).

    I use an infrared temp gun and I agree it doesn’t read correctly due to shiny surface HOWEVER it does give a consistent reading. I have six stainless steel pans of varying sizes also 3PLY and 5PLY and once the centre of the 5PLY pan reads 185F it’s good to go and for 3PLY once the centre of the pan hits 190F it’s good to go and add oil.
    I conducted my own tests on each pan to establish at what temp the centre of the pan needs to be for the water bead test to work and these were my findings and they have worked consistently for a handful of years.
    Your readings will differ due to gun you use and pans you have, but if you conduct your own series of tests you will find a consistent heat gun reading where the water bead effect kicks in.

    • @TomatoMakes
      @TomatoMakes 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The Leindenfrost effect does not occur at a consistent temperature. It depends on the surface of the pan. The rougher the surface of the pan, the hotter it needs to be to achieve the effect. Usually on a stainless steel pan it is around 380F. You can use an infrared thermometer on a bare stainless steel pan if your model allows you to adjust the emissivity to 0.35. In this case you just need to heat the pan to 325-350F for scrambled eggs.

    For anyone that wants to cook scrambled eggs without adding a ton of fat to them - Dont get the pan too hot (shouldn't pass the water test) or the eggs will burn.They will very likely stick, but you don't want them to burn. Make sure you are constantly shuffling them. Once done, pour into a plate, then let the stuck-on eggs sit for a bit in the pan without heat. The stuck-on eggs will dry out quickly, at which point you can remove them with a spatula. If they are still stuck, add some chopped pepper or tomato to the pan with some boiling water, which will unstick the eggs.

      Eggs are fatty but they are primarily protein. Spoon of butter + spoon of oil = 220 kcal (Google). If half evaporates or stays on the pan, that's ~100 kcal. Every week, that's an extra breakfast. Not that fats are bad, but adding that can really offset my own macros.

    Best explanation I've heard about cooking eggs in stainless steel is comparing it to carving wood with a drill. Can it be done? Sure. Is it a good tool for the job? Not even close. I tried for the longest time, watched so many different videos, this one included, and it's just not worth the hassle. I keep a Teflon pan specifically for eggs that only sees silicone utensils touching it. Still probably having some chemical leakage into it, but let's be honest, there's a lot more toxic stuff that makes it into my body from everything else in life, and I can reduce some of those much easier than trying to cook eggs with stainless steel 😅

      Totally agree. It’s not the easiest way to cook eggs but it can be done. For people who want to avoid teflon completely or don’t have the space for other pans, this method works. Nice channel btw!

    What kind of oil do you use?

    For this technique, will tallow work the same as the butter?

    • @Mark-lq3sb
      @Mark-lq3sb หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, try 100% grass fed beef tallow it's high in omega-3 and it can add a "savory" flavor. I've used it besides 100% butter.

    Nice video! I will typically just "season" the pan and then let it cool while I prep other ingredients (like chopping chives, beating the eggs, set up any other mise place). It's a little more mindless and doesn't requiring timing the Leidenfrost effect... but it takes a little more time overall. For those that do not know, to season the pan: Add oil to the pan, heat on high heat until the oil is smoking, remove from heat (turn off burner), wipe the hot oil all over the surface of the pan with a paper towel (use a tong), and then let cool.

      I've heard of that method but haven't tried it - I'm not a huge fan of intentionally smoking the oil, my smoke alarms are very sensitive 😄

      @KN-op3et what do you do after you let it cool? Do you then add the oil and do what this video does at that point?

      ​@peterl.104 There are many videos on seasoning pans. The videos are usually for cast iron pans, but it applies to stainless steel as well.

    Dude you should be sponsored by stainless steel pan companies. The details that adding oil raises the temp of fumes of the butter is the kind of detail which makes your videos great. Seriously on this topic these are the absolute best. Trying exactly this tomorrow morning. You make me like my stainless steel pan again

    • @kirkhenneberger3411
      @kirkhenneberger3411 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I hope you are being sarcastic. Mixing oil butter does not raise the smoke point of butter. Use clarified butter if you want high heat cut up omelets without burnt butter. Then figure out how to cook.

      @kirkhenneberger3411 jesus how vitriolic you are. like who hurt you? Why you gotta be so mean on a cooking video? And did you actually listen to what he said? Seriously what the heck dude? It's a cooking video get off your horse....

    Soo heat to approximate 400 degrees then lower the heat to approximate 350? What if I just set my temperature on my induction pots to 350 to 375. I read that some chefs say you have to learn the perfect temperature for each style of your pots. And I would say if I'm using induction, how do I find the right temperature for that water to do that affect? And then once I find that temperature do I lower my induction stove by 10 to 20°?

    Hm, my butter reacts pretty heavily when being put inside the pan (splattering so much that half will be sprayed outside of the pan), any tips on what causes this?

    How Detrimental is it to use only butter with the eggs can i just wait a bit more so it doesn't burn?
    Perhaps i can use margarine? cause i use it more the butter anyways.

  • @danielpierre3161
    @danielpierre3161 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you so much.
    I have tried your technique but it was still sticking, is it because I use only oil ?
    (haven’t use butter for more than 20 years, no animal oil I have been said)
    Or is it because I didn’t reduce the temperature, first time I read that, thank you very much !

    • @PrudentReviews
      @PrudentReviews  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Both lowering the temp and adding a little butter or ghee will help
