Cooking eggs in stainless steel — are you feeling like you have a good handle on this, or nah? 😜

I recently asked you all what your comfort level was with stainless steel cookware and I was saddened to hear that many of you struggle with it (but also that you want to learn more)!

I figured we’d start straight with something that seems scary, but really isn’t. 🍳 Don’t let the fact that I broke an egg yolk upon entry into the pan deter you —  that was due to lack of coffee, and YES it still releases from the pan easily.

What questions do you all have?! Shout ‘em out below or save this for later when you want a refresher!

My best tips for cooking with stainless steel:
1️⃣ Preheat the pan very well. I set this to medium-high and heated for 2 minutes.
2️⃣ Test with water. When you think it’s ready, splash a little water. It should evaporate.
3️⃣ Add fat — in this case butter, but oil works great too. Just let it melt (or heat up) for about 30 seconds before adding the eggs.
4️⃣ Give the eggs time. Once you add the eggs, season them however you like, then give them a minute or two to cook. You’ll see the edges begin to lift up a bit.
5️⃣ Shake the pan. The ol’ wiggle test will let you know if it’s time to flip your eggs (or simply remove from the pan if you’re cooking them over-easy). They should move freely. If they don’t, let them cook longer.
6️⃣ Use a thin spatula! You’re not supposed to use metal with nonstick, but that’s another perk of cooking with stainless steel. 😜 My fish spatula is my #1 most used kitchen tool.

Excited for you to try this because it really isn’t meant to be scary or intimidating. And what’s the worst that happens, you waste $15 worth of eggs? 😂 I kid!
