Do you need to use Pam or butter when cooking with these

I occasionally will use butter, ghee or olive olive. I never use Pam. It will damage the pans.

With a brand new pan, that has not been scratched by improper washing, I only use a little butter. This is more for flavor and for a cooking liquid than anything else. These pans don't need to be 'greased' or oiled as food slides (sometime too easily when trying to flip an omelette) right out and clean up is a breeze.

The instructions say do NOT use Pam; it ruins the non-stick coating. I've had no problem using nothing at all or butter or olive oil (for taste).

Do Not use Pam, it is flamable. What you need is a pum sprayer bottle for olive oil, I wouldnt be without mine

You can use whatever. We buy the packages that contain both, on one side butter favor oil and popcorn on the other

I am so sorry that I don't use butter to make popcorn but I use olive oil after I popped them always.So I am so sorry that I cannnot anwer your need at all...I reccomend you to use olive oil more than butter, it is healthy for us...I think.And this pop conr maker has a recipe inside so it can answer your question about butter!

No you don't cook them first, just put them on the rack. You might want to put wet paper towel on them to wet them so they can stay on the rack better.

I use a little organic coconut oil , or real butter when I use this...do NOT use pam or any type of cooking sprays. Those will ruin ceramic, & all nonstick cookware,...

I had a sticking problem with one batch of donuts out of 3, with each being a different recipe. Some recipes are more self-lubricating than others. I tried to coat with vege oil but found that it just beaded up on the non-stick surface. PAM sounds like a good solution.

You can, but you don't need to. I love these because when I go away for the weekend, I can still have toast or grilled cheese like everyone else. At home I usually only use them for toast because I can pull out a clean pan/griddle to use.

Sorry, but I've never tried adding butter, etc. Actually, I don't remember reading that on the wrapping. It would have raised a red flag for me since some times I will lightly grease non-stick pans.

You can. I used Pam tonight toasting the hamburger buns. Your main thing to remember is the pan must be seasoned after use for the first few times of use. Also these pans have copper, and stainless steel, so when the pans heat up they hold the heat unlike teflon. So medium heat and keep oiled for moisture to the pan when cooking lean meats. I use olive oil after each use to lightly wipe inside the pans.

Yes, hand wash, and do not add spray pam or other oils/butter to the pan before baking - it will mar the non-stick coatin

Sort of. The heat needs to be much lower than you think. You need a generous spray of PAM. I am still figuring out the whole temperature issue. We have an electric stove. I preheat the pan with the heat on about 3 (lower heat). Spray with Pam when heated & add egg. Then I turn off heat because my husband likes them over medium. There's enough heat to cook it perfectly. But don't be stingy with the spray PAM.

Yes went well. However, I used Pam spray after I heated the pan. I learned from another ceramic brand that they, like cephalon, require a degree of seasoning.

DO NOT use pam or any other type of cooking spray, not ever on this pan. These are bad for non-stick pans. If you don't believe me, call Circulon directly. They will tell you this. This is what they told me, but I had already known this. If you have to, use a little oil...but not Pam.

Wow, I'm far from a cooking expert. Only thing I'll suggest is if you're not already using a cooking spray (i.e. PAM,Crisco or Smart Balance) try that with just a 10 second reduction on time you're MWaving them.

I don't know for sure but I don't think so. To make butter using Buttercup it is best to use the freshest butter you can get and make sure the temperature of the cream is at the room temperature.

I use "Pam" before adding food. Also, it's easy to clean, just add water to food line and let it boil a few minutes, that will loosen any stuck-on food.
