For the tips on making homemade mayonnaise, I would skip all of what this article says and just use an immersion blender to simplify things. I don’t have to wait for my ingredients to come to room temperature and the blending cup it comes with has the measurements etched on the side so I know how much oil I’ve added. I’ve never had a problem and it takes about 2 minutes or less this way. Also, rather than using it to toast a grilled sandwich, I’d rather dip my grilled cheese sandwich (grilled with butter) in garlic mayonnaise.
I think this would also be good for a toasted peanut butter and bacon sandwich. I also think it would be good for a toasted peanut butter and tomato sandwich.
I think using funyons is a good idea for certain things. I don’t think so in meatloaf as TheAlbatross pointed out. I think as a coating for chicken would be tasty with crushed Cheezits or something.
Make sure the pan is hot and there is fat in the pan and don’t move the toast until a crust has formed.
Stuff sticks more in a cold pan. As the pan heats the metal expands, any tiny pits in the pan get filled in with slightly expanded metal, any remaining spots are filled in with oil/butter. If you let the food sit longer it’ll release easier. Honestly, if you are sticking try waiting 30s, normally that will help.
As many have already said, using the proper amount of cooking fat will solve this issue and is much more healthy that then toxic chemicals present in non-stick pans. Count yourself lucky that it was stolen, you shouldn’t use them under any circumstances.
Related to french toast however, making it in a waffle iron is a damn good time.
yeah, but you’re not constantly bashing them with a spatula or other cooking tool during use so there is much less chance of damaging the coating, which is the main issue with nonstick pans (that and being overheated).
Stainless steel pans are fine, cast iron is easier to use, but you can do what you need to do wit SS. Learning to cook without Teflon is important. PFAS is poison that cannot be broken down and persists in the environment forever.
Tips:
Heat the pan and your cooking fat up before putting food in. It should be hotter than cooking temp, but not burning your cooking fat (no smoke)
Butter tastes better but oil is easier to work with. Use oil if you are not used to cooking in this pan. Use butter on your plate for taste.
Let the pan temp recover for 30s or so before putting additional pieces into the pan.
Don’t try to move things right away. Don’t touch it until it is ready to flip. Lots of foods will “release” when they have browned a little
Don’t be afraid to add some more cooking fat between batches.
