I’ve always just used the bead test where you drop a drop of water in a dry pan and if it beads up and rolls around, instead of just sizzles, then the pan is hot enough to add oil (although this also works if it’s too hot, but I have a good sense of how long it takes to get to this temp, so I’m usually testing just before and just after it hits this temp). Then when the oil is shimmering, this is the time to add food.

I have no idea but those aren’t stainless steel pans. Like if you are using Teflon you don’t want to preheat. Every pan type is used differently.

Seasoning is not about taste. You’re just using a dirty pan if it has stuff burned onto it. Your pan should not be imparting any taste into your food.

Check out carbon steel pans. They are much the same as cast iron but significantly lighter.

While oil is necessary, It’s more about how you preheat it and your technique, rather than how you oil it; no amount of oil is going to save you from over crowding a cold pan.

The beauty of not consuming any main stream media is that it can have said or not said anything you want to confirm your beliefs.

I have votes turned off. Have they actually been downvoting me?

First we start with the classic “No, you stop”

No, please don’t stop. It’s hilarious how long you’ve gone while at the same time repeatedly stating how boring it. lol Who does that? Eventually I’ll bore of watching this desperate attempt to win by getting the last word in, and then I’ll just leave. This is how people who don’t have to get the last word in act. But for now it’s some good entertainment throughout the day.

Obviously you enjoy this stupidity, so it could go on for days

Well, you don’t enjoy it, as you’ve repeatedly called it boring, and yet you seemingly can’t just walk away. It’s like you want to make it extremely obvious that your “you have to get the last word in!” is just a massive projection.

So now you complain that I respond to you?

No, not at all. I’m quite enjoying this. It’s very entertaining watching your flail around.

Because, in your world if you have the last say you win! A ridiculous notion but there you are.

You’ve, multiple times, tried to get me to stop posting, when all you’ve had to do was stop responding to me; this is your most obvious projection yet.

And also sorry you feel “bad”,

You’ve intentionally and directly insulted me numerous times. It’s obvious you want me to feel bad. Why pretend it’s not your goal?

You sure do spend a lot of time trying to make me feel bad, for someone who supposedly doesn’t care what I think.

In fact, by your own metric, the amount of times you’ve responded reveals strong feelings on the matter. Or do you not realize that that was an obvious projection?
