Re: OT/how to get nonstick results without Teflon

[Guest guest]

Hi Cindy,

Sorry if this is a repeated answer for you (I am very behind on my

emails). But, I learned from a chef that the key to preventing

sticking when you are not using Teflon pans is to preheat the empty pan

for about one minute. We use stainless steel (but it it probably true

for cast iron, too). I put the pan on the flame for about a minute,

add the oil, then add the food immediately. Works great and cleans up

easy.
