    Using your pan will destroy it!! Don't even use it at all and the coating will last

      How? The coating is resistant to temperatures up to 400-500 degrees and is practically un-reactive to everything. If used properly, there is absolutely no way the coating will degrade.

    basically the key to maintaining the non stick coating is to use low heat and silicone utensils for cooking, and a soft sponge or dish cloth to clean. I used a soft dish brush with a drop of dawn to clean my brand new $100 non stick pan and saw several micro scratches immediately after... The coating is actually quite similar to automotive clear coat paint - except the clear coat on a car is much thicker than a non stick coating.

    • @mclama1139
      @mclama1139 Před 7 měsíci +2

      yeah soft dish brushes are a nono for non stick. Soft side of a sponge with water and soap and if it's really bad put some water into it bring it to a simmer and if it's even worse add vinegar and sodium bicarbonate let it sit there for a few minutes still simmering and it should take care of basically anything

    As said in the video, high heat is terrible for nonstick pans. But also, when the pan is hot, don’t put it in the sink and spray cold water on it. It will warp the bottom of the pan. And it’s especially problematic on induction stove tops with a warped bottom.

    Never use a thin bottomed no stick pan on an electric stove. Look for a thick copper/aluminum stainless steel encapsulated bottom core for your no stick pans if you have an electric stove. Personally seasoned cast iron and stainless steel rule my kitchen. In my tiny apartment I have to stack pans. With no stick pans this is normally a big no no. I like to use thick dish cloths between the surfaces, not backers parchment or paper towels. The dish cloths cotton fibers are much kinder to the no stick surface than paper towels or cooking parchment. Never use cooking parchment in a no stick pan.

    Actually, the reason we need to add oil to the pan is for two reasons. One, it keeps the pan from overheating (to some extent) thus protecting the finish. Two, nonstick coatings actually have pores. By putting a thin layer or oil on the pan, we're essentially sealing the pores and allowing the nonstick to be even more nonstick.

    Non stick pans are a pin in the ***. I have not used them for the last 12 years and instead use carbon steel pans, well cured. The non-stick are not long lasting and when you reach temperatures of 550F and above the teflon burns and is certain to fall off. Don't waste your money!

      They aren't for high temp cooking. I don't recommend them, but you're ignoring the instructions for use.

    I have to use oil with a nonstick pan? Why not just stick with conventional cast iron or copper poor stainless steel

      Charles Cox yes you have to use oil with every pan. Non-stick pans are convenient because they don’t take as long to heat up as cast iron, they aren’t as heavy, and they require less maintenance. The trade off is that they won’t last as long as cast iron.
