Pan Help!! šŸ³

So this is my ALWAYS Pan from this morning and this is a recurring theme. Can someone please tell me why it keeps on ending up like this after I cook, especially eggs??!! šŸ³ šŸ˜­ I got this one right when the company started, the first edition and I'm wondering if I should either get a new one or if I'm doing something wrong? No more scrubbing? No more dishwasher? What should I do? Should I make a layer of oil onto it like to create a patina? The nonstick surface is just not working anymore and Idk what to do šŸ˜­

Apply a thin layer of oil on a paper towel and heat on medium heat. Then you can use and it should work well next time. Is it ceramic? Only hand wash it and you can use a green scrub pad. If itā€™s really bad you can use some baking soda and vinegar and let it sit with a paper towel.

Then wash it after the baking soda and vinegar..sorry forgot to finish that šŸ˜‚

This pan might be a lost cause now. Never put pans in the dishwasher. Don't use too high of a heat. Not sure what the care instructions are for that pan, did it come with a booklet? What are you scrubbing with? It might be too abrasive. I always wipe my pans out when they are still warm. For stuff that is stuck on, I'll boil some water in it before wiping it out. When I cook eggs, I get a cheap nonstick pan that I use only for eggs. Lots of butter is key šŸ˜‚

Please get rid of your nonstick pansā€¦they leach nasty chemicals called PFAS which is in short called forever chemicals into your food that take hundreds if not thousands of years to break downā€¦not trying to scare you but this is a scientific factā€¦stick with stainless steel 18/0 nickel free, carbon steel, cast iron pots

I wanted to get the Hexclad Gordon Ramsay pans, but saw they leach forever chemicals if heated over 500Ā°. I stopped using nonstick pans due to the chemicals (watch Dark Waters with Mark Ruffalo). I mostly use cast iron or stainless steel. I donā€™t put nonstick in the dishwasher, if I still had them, but I do wash the stainless steel ones in the dishwasher. I usually saw what is happening to yours if it wasnā€™t greased enough or if it was heated at too high of heat for too long.

add butter!!

Those pans are SHiT. So is any ā€œnon stickā€ panā€¦might be good for a year or so but the non stick coating will ALWAYS eventually wear out, their lifespan is only 3-5yrs IF well looked after (and no dishwasher etc) Get yourself a good carbon steel pan thatā€™s what I use for my eggs and they slide like hockeyā€™s and have been for the last 10yrs (theyā€™re 15yrs old) Stainless steel is okay but needs to learn heat control and do the water test to make it ā€œdanceā€ā€¦I donā€™t need to do that with my carbon steel I preheat it until itā€™s smoking, add oil, wait 15secs I add my eggs and wait a minute then turn it. Wait another minute then serve (coz I like mine gooey inside)

Thatā€™s my tiny egg size carbon steel pan, this video was taken March 2021, I still have that pan it still cooks the same. (I have all 3 sizes, from Ikea) Thereā€™s no coating on it besides the seasoning, (layers of polymerised oil) it can become non stick but you need to season it.

@Monique Jose Duvall thatā€™s awesome is your stainless steel nickel free?
