How to keep food from sticking to Pans
Have you ever found yourself working up quite the temper as you watch your favorite dish become caked on to the very pan you cooked it in? Doesn’t that make you more than just a little bit angry? I mean, you slave away making the perfect dish, and much to your dismay you discover that you have to scrub away, for at least an hour, to get the remnants of that special lasagna ( Or whatever it may be ) off. Well, I think my buttons had been pushed for the last time, and so I decided to go meandering off in the search of some wonderful “nonstick” cooking and baking tips. And wouldn’t you know I found them, and as delighted as I am about my future of cooking in a nonstick paradise, I found that sharing all the advice with you guys would make it all the better.
First and foremost buy the right kind of pots, so just leave those thin ones aside and whip out the heavy duty nonstick pans. Why? Well, because the thin ones can develop hot spots which eventually cause your food to burn and stick. Secondly, make sure that those pans are nice and clean before you use them, because any leftover food can burn easily thus, helping the rest of your food burn all the quicker, so just put your dishwasher to work! If that doesn’t work, well whip out the old scrubber and make sure those black spots are gone. Thirdly, its bad luck to drop frozen food into a steaming pan , and well frankly its so much more likely to burn that its just plain old not worth it, so please thaw all of your food before placing it into the pan. And if that doesn’t work, and worse comes to worse and something does burn, just wait for the pan to cool and then soak it in hot water.
However, there are even more ways to prevent sticking, and that’s just by following these few tips like : not letting food overcook ( Which won’t taste good anyways) , not using metal utensils to stir food ( talk about a soon -to -be scratched up pan ) , and if in doubt grease up a little. When it comes to baking, the simplest tip that I can offer up to you guys is to always use aluminum foil. I mean it can coat any pan, and best of all there is virtually no clean up when you’re done. Just lay it out on the baking pan, grease it up a little and presto! Just remember to also use a paper towel when greasing, to make it less likely that you’ll miss a spot and just remember to follow your recipe to the tea!
