you have to heat it first and put some oil.
then it will not stick!
you do not put the egg there with a cold pan, from the starts...

i use cast iron daily and shit will always stick

You're still supposed to use some kind of cooking fat.

the literal reddit pan

>>12728697
>no oil
Kill yourself

Then what's the seasoning for?

>>12728929
to season the fucking egg?

>>12728697
that pan is fucking huge. that'll take like fuckin 20 mins to get up to temp

The point of steel or cast iron pans is to sear meat by letting it stick until a golden crust forms when it naturally releases. Eggs are best boiled unless you have a good nonstick surface.

look at the pan shape, it has a huge rise in the center, all the grease is on the edge. OP you grease the pan so the food COOKS IN IT, if it runs to one side it won't fuckin work u dingus

The aim of seasoning a cast iron or other metal pan is to create a "non-stick" surface. If the pan is washed, esp in soapy water the non stick will be removed. Choose one pan that you will cook eggs, omelettes, pancakes etc in. Season it and wipe it with a damp cloth or paper towel after use. That should build up a non stick layer. For pans that liquids are cooked in, should be washed and rinsed after use then given a quick wipe over with some oil, to stop rust firming. Or get a non stick pan and use it just to cook eggs etc in. Hope this helps.

look at how much they stick

>>12729299
lol this is so obviously fake, you just played the footage backwards

Cast iron is a may may but washing it with soap water will most certainly not remove the polymerized oil ya doof, whaddaya never wash your dam pans?

don't be a pussy

>>12728697
Did you season it bro? Dis you use some lard? Do you even know how to cast iron?

>>12728992
you can cook eggs in cast iron if you use a lot of butter. I make omelettes in cast iron all the time.

>>12729299
I've done this in a stainless steel pan. You just need to let the pan heat up over medium-high heat, then add fat, and it'll be just as nonstick. You can even turn the heat down if you don't want to cook at that temperature and it'll still be nonstick. Stainless steel can be just as nonstick if you know what you're doing. The real benefit of cast iron is supposed to be it's thickness which lets it retain more heat.

Another benefit is that it can go in the oven and be fine

>>12729299
This guy is a mad man

>>12730412
>Using only one meme pan for everything
I have a small non stick pan only for eggs, another just for chicken, other for fish, beef, etc

>>12728929

>>12730623
That was great thread. My eggs looked like that when I was cooking at 13

If you fall for the cast iron meme in 2019 you deserve to be put down

>>12729299

>>12729319
Well that's what used to happen when I was a profession cook. Frequenty had my ears clipped for washing the omelette pan. I soon learned! Too grown up to add an abusive word at the end.

>>12730577
