My husband found a cast-iron skillet at the junkyard, it was covered in rust so he had it sandblasted and I seasoned it back to life.🙌🏻🍳

I owned a quite recent pan and one day I happened to be taking the trash to the garbage bins in my apartment building and noticed that someone had put three old and rusted cast iron pans out for recycling. I took a look at them, verified there were no cracks or damage other than rust, thanked the cooking gods for my good fortune and took them back to my apartment. After considerable elbow grease and multiple seasoning sessions, I ended up with three beautiful pans. I decided to do a bit of research into them and the most recent one was made somewhere in the '40s to early '50s while the oldest ones date back to the '30s or older. I have been offered more than $100 for one of them by a friend and turned him down with a smile. LOL

I have always had a difficult time peeling hardcooked eggs. After I watched the episode where Elle made the curried deviled eggs using a steamer basket to steam cook them, then immerse in the ice water, I tried it. I will NEVER boil eggs again. I can do six eggs in the steamer basket, and as long as I use the ice water, they peel VERY easily, and the yolks are perfect. THANKS!

I make scrambled and over-easy eggs in a stainless steel pan and they never stick. I learned this trick from Wolfgang Puck many years ago and have done it ever since. You can make stainless steel non-stick by letting it heat up on the burner by itself with nothing in it for a bit, then once heated add your butter and let it stay in the pan a while before you add your eggs (not too high heat so as to brown the butter), then after a bit add your scramble (or crack your eggs directly in the pan), let them cook a bit, turning/folding the scramble as needed until done (or flip your over easy eggs). Perfect eggs every single time with virtually zero stuck on mess. I make eggs three to four times a week in one of two of my 18/10 stainless steel pans. I don't own a non-stick or cast iron pan.

Yes, I do the same thing and my scrambled or fried eggs never stick to my stainless pans. The key is getting to temp first, on my electric stove it's 5 to 6. But I also sometimes use a lodge skillet, but the process is the same, heat first, then fat, then eggs.

I use hard anodized All Clad pans for eggs. Most restaurants use Teflon coated pans but I’m not a fan (health-wise). Last year I bought one of those little Dash Egg cookers for hard boiled eggs and I LOVE it. Normally I hate gadgets like that (bc I’m a restaurant chef of 20+ years) however, steaming cooks them perfectly and after shocking in cold water they peel sooooo easily. Also, cooking a couple of eggs(on the stove) is much more finicky than cooking a whole batch of them tbh. PS. The Dash cooker is only good for eggs cooked soft to hard boiled. The little “omelette” tray is a gimmick IMO but it’s still well worth the $10 just for stupid-proof HB eggs. Every. Single. Time. It has a built in timer that plays a loud little tune when they’re ready. You can poach eggs in it too but I haven’t tried that bc I have no problems poaching an egg the old fashioned way. 🤷‍♀️

My sister bought Momma an electric egg cooker when they first came out in ther 50's. I have gone through a few since my mid 60's marriage. Now double deckers arer available which cook up to 14 eggs at a time. Most important is to pierce the egg 1st (every model I have owned, except one, included a piercer.) and to immediatrely cool hb eggs down in water and then refigerate them. Big advantages are that you can make eggs while doing other work without timing and there is no pot to clean. If you live in a hard water area as I do use distilled water.

For nonsticks, you don't have to necessarily replace yearly, if you take care of them, and don't use them at real high heat, they can last you a few years, like 5-10 years, max though if you bought a decent one. I have been using Analon nonstick pans for about that time, maybe a bit longer, but they both are beginning to get a little leggy now that they don't nonstick nearly as well. They are not my go to for nearly daily use but they do come in handy at times.

I must say, I bought the OXO nonstick frying pan in October 2021 and it's April 2023... I recycled it a few months ago as it got scratched and damaged on the non-stick coating; don't remember exactly when we got rid of it. However the Blue Diamond Cookware Ceramic Non-Stick one has lasted quite well and although I have only had it for a year, I am repurchasing it as I usually need two. In fact I placed an order for it earlier today. During this video I was able to look up on Amazon the purchase dates of both kinds of frying pan. The Blue Diamond one is also significantly cheaper. I think that it came up as an Amazon recommendation and I gave it a chance, which turned out well.

the only pans I have are stainless steel and I can make omelets, over easy, and scrambled eggs and at the end of cooking I can clean with a paper towel. You just need to know how to use the pan bacon grease and hot pan and letting the eggs sit in pan cooking before stirring. You might have an issue with the French tiny curd scrambled eggs since you have to constantly move the eggs and not give a chance to cook the eggs.

When you get done it’s very easy to take the thing apart and clean it out. Then I run it for a bit in some clean water to get the rest out.

I boil eggs often and use to do it in a pot, but moved to the Instant Pot and can do it quickly by putting the eggs in the wire container which fits inside the pot and boil them in 9 minutes and they can be taken out and put in cold water and then stored in the refrigerator or be used immediately in salads like I use them for. The only thing is if you use the natural method of releasing the pressure it takes longer before taking them out of the Instant Pot.

Cast iron. You cannot get a non-stick pan to a high enough temperature to give proper grill marks. Heating non-stick to high temperatures will damage the coating and possibly release chemicals that you would rather not have in your food. A properly seasoned cast iron grill pan will be close to non-stick as you need anyways, just give it a lot of use and time. My 100-year-old cast iron pans are more non-stick than my T-Fal Titanium Pro frying pan.

You can use any stock pot for sous vide cooking. It simply needs to be deep enough to hold the required amount of water. As for the heat damaging counter tops, I always place my pot with the sous vide circulator on my stove top. This is an advantage of using a stock pot as it will fit nicely in the space of one burner leaving the other ones free if you need them.

If you preheat a stainless steel pan to a high enough temperature (use the mercury test to make sure it's hot enough) then put a bit of oil in, nothing will stick! That's my favorite method to make crispy fried eggs. You can use a thin metal spatula with the stainless steel pan, it's light, easy to take care of (as opposed to cast iron and nonstick pans), and if you happen to burn it a bit of cheap Barkeeper's friend will make it super shiny as new! Mine is a cheap stainless steel pan from a Walmart set ($25 for 4 pots + pan + lids + some utensils), and it's working great so far

I would love for you guys to explore stainless steel pans for eggs. They can actually do a really nice job...you just have to check the temperature using the mercury ball effect. And with stainless steel you don't have to worry about flaking or dangerous fumes like you do with non-stick.

We raise our own chickens and ducks. Unwashed, the eggs have a natural protective bloom - and are safe to store at room temperature. As they produce So many we don't refrigerate - our fridge would quickly overfill. In addition, I've noticed duck eggs quick more quickly in all the other cooking techniques I've tried for them. Would it still be 12 minutes at 167 for room temperature chicken eggs? Would I lower temperature or time for duck eggs? P.S. we Do wash our eggs at 90*F before cooking - ducks and chickens can both be messy. All of the information out there says don't wash your home raised eggs before storing, but never mention what to do before cooking - took me a while to find an answer on that, so thought it might help anyone else curious

The number one reason I clicked on this video was to see how they "stir" scrambled eggs. And that's the part they zipped through :( What I do is, after the eggs have set a bit, I just go around the pan scraping the eggs toward the middle, but don't really pile them up in the center. They stay somewhat spread out. And then since I don't like them wet, I flip them in two or three large pieces once before I take them out. I figure there might be a better way to do it, but couldn't tell from this clip. Otherwise loved it.

Also, don't try to flip food too early, it's gonna stick. After it's cooked on that side, it's gonna release from the pan on its own.

Lisa, so brave! At 12:18, eggs have been cooking for 13 minutes yet she risks severe burns/boiled fingers to stick her hand down into the steam, handle/peel the eggs as though they were cool to the touch, show off the slotted spoon, all that super-hera action! What a woman! Me, I need to cook eggs longer due to being at high altitude, and I carefully pour the hot water into the sink in hopes of soothing my garbage disposal (which periodically cr@ps out since I'm at the end of the plumbing line in my apartment complex, sigh! no one on YT talks about that). But at least I have some hard-boiled eggs (and have not boiled any fingers yet!) 😁

I hate cast iron for cooking eggs. The seasoning keeps flaking off little black specks into the eggs and cleaning the egg residue off of the pan afterward is difficult. I go cheap ceramic nonstick pans for scrambled eggs, now. Yeah, I have to use silicone utensils. So what? I like them. Yeah, I have to get a new pan every few years. I think this a good trade off to avoid the cast iron aggravation. For hard boiled eggs, I am a total Instant Pot convert.

What are you using for seasoning? I ask as that can be an issue as Safflower is known to flake off. Any other oil will work just fine.

I'd add you need to be selective in how you clean your cast iron (or carbon steel). Those ring mail scrubbers work great at getting the gunk off but leaving the seasoning intact. And of course rub some grease over a hot pan after you are done cleaning. My best cast iron recently graduated to my preferred baking pan. Very non-stick, and I can bake quiche in it.

@@aerocoaster3252 Well, using Tallow may be the issue. Just use a neutral oil and wipe it until it looks dry, don't need much, after you heat it up gently to dry it off, then put it away and then use it the next day or whenever, though daily, or nearly is best. Even Flaxseed oil can flake off in chunks. I just use every day EEVO, Canola, or Vegetable oil to season mine, and wipe it out good, only need a small amount and wipe until it almost looks dry and then just use it, the oil will polymerize all its own through use and periodically deep fry in it, like Fried chicken as that'll just help the seasoning.

How do you scale up the number of eggs in the sous vide? 2 eggs (110g @ 4°C) vs 12 eggs (670g @ 4°C) Does the cooking time start when the water returns t0 the desired temperature?

First, she uses a lot of water (6 qts ~ 5700g). That's a lot of thermal intertia, so it is unlikely that even a dozen eggs will alter the temperature that much. If it did though, the sous vide device can make adjustments quickly. And, since the food never touches the water it can be used for clean-up.

Lodge cast iron sucks. There is a reason people hunt for old cast iron. The reason is not many companies hone the inside of their cast iron anymore. This was an essential step in the process for a good cast iron pan before the cast iron era left us. So now we find ourselves in a cast iron resurgence. The problem is the art of making good cast iron pans has been all but lost. I have found 3 companies that make what I would call stellar cast iron pans that hold true to the heritage of a quality cast iron pan. They are also all what I would call premium products or designer products. These 3 companies are Stargazer ($145 12") 6.5lbs, Field ($195 11 5/8") 6lbs, and Smithey ($200 12") +/- 8lbs. Personally I like the Stargazer pans, they do a nice 3 step process to the inside of the pan to create what might be the perfect texture. It has nice, flared edges and some heat dispersion in the handle. I also like the field line of pans because you can get lids for them or bundle them with a lid. This does make a 12" pan about $350 dollars though... Also, as far as I know field was the first "modern" cast iron company honing their pans like our forefathers. If you don't have the cash and need good cast iron check the used market and do your research on old cast iron companies. This stuff is still out there, cast iron dies hard. Last but not least don't forget to season your pans! Season them after each use and get a chainmail scrubber. Soap be damned!
