how to make food stop sticking
118381
I once read a suggestion that works: rub some vegetable oil (any kind will do, I assume) into the cold pan, and then add some Kosher salt and rub that into pan. Wipe dry. When you're ready to use, warm it a little, add a little more oil, and add the food for cooking.. It was suggested to me that I not wash the pan after, but just wipe it clean (sort of like cast iron treatments), but I have cleaned it and then repeated the oil and salt as needed. It works pretty nicely. By the way, if you get any stains on it, I have found that Barkeeper's Friend works miracles!

In my experience with my glass top oven, it get's too hot or cold, if you have a gas range you might be able to control the heat better, and just a little bit of vegetable oil should be enough. If you have a glass top range like mine, go buy a Green Pan or any other ceramic coated pan at a fraction of the cost of the Cuisinart.

You really need to follow the instructions, preheat pan on medium and use little oil and food shouldn't stick. Hope this is helpful.

Don't use the spray, just use good old Crisco or perhaps vegetable oil and brush it on with a silicone brush. The sprays tend to stick to non-stick surfaces.

There seems to be no problem of sticking. If I load too many/much potato it get messy, But my wife lets me rice potatoes for our family dinners. They are very fluffy without that beat up feel from a mixer.

It's funny you should ask this question today. I have had a problem with tortillas sticking together in my warmer and just this morning did one of those head-slaps, thinking that parchment paper between slices would solve that problem. I will try it next time.

Check feeder for food clogging. You can also email the company, they are very helpful.

Breading doesn't stay on well in the actifry. The stirring action usually knocks it off. I have tried things like frozen onion rings and they come out with much of the breading off.

Clean ups a piece of cake. Just use a wet towel while it's still hot will break up the stuck on grease. Yes there's a drop tray.

The rice mostly doesn't stick to the bottom. Just remember to stir it from time to time and use low/mid heat.

Baking soda, barkeeper, or bon ami works better with a non-abrasive sponge, make into a paste and ad in a circular motion. Let set for a while and then repeat as necessary. Hope this helps BUT remember clean after each cooking episode so the build-up is less. . Good Luck .

Add a little bit of water to pan while it is heating and your egg will not stick. Good luck.

i have not been able to figure that out with anything except for beef. I just turn my pan up to med-hi let it sit for about 5 mins to preheat, add about a half tablespoon of olive oil and it dosent stick.

No. This is a stainless steel pan. I have not had any problems with food sticking. If foods stick when finished cooking, cool pan and fill with water. Let soak for a while or overnight. Sticky foods remove quickly. Try using no-stick spray when frying eggs. They slip out effortlessly. I, too, love the high sides.

I would suggest scraping it off with a razor blade and then using the Goof Off to remove the remaining stickiness. Good Luck.

I use real butter instead of oil. Most of the time I simply wipe the pan clean with a paper towel. I don't have much trouble with sticking.

I have had mine for years and only use Olive oil. Never had any sticking issue

Just put a bit of oil in the bottom of the inside (spread it around so it covers the bottom and up the sides a bit where it normally sticks). Make sure you rinse the rice a good amount of times. I bought a "rice rinser" for 6 bucks on here so that will make it easier too.

I set a timer and go to a different room. Be careful because it might vibrate itself off the counter. I find that the ingredients stick to the sides so the first 5 minutes or so I scrape them down with a spatula or plastic spoon. Then it seems to work better.
