How prevent? I'm scrambling eggs with finely grated cheese, cooking low for 5-8 minutes in 1/2 tbsp of butter. Skillet is a cheap nonstick from Walmart. I always get the sticky icky, which is very annoying and makes me not want to eat eggs even though they're a favorite of mine.

[Anonymous No.15042808]

It's simple. Don't eat eggs.

Use pam spray first before the butter and lower the heat

>>15042810
You're not supposed to use sprays with nonstick skillets, it dissolved the coating and leeches it into your food

[Anonymous No.15042816]

>>15042804
Cook it on and off the heat

But I gotta

[Anonymous No.15042820]

>>15042816
I do that. But I only pull them off 2-3 times to reincorporate the wet and cooked. Should I do more?

There is no way in hell that 0 calorie cooking spray is dissolving your nonstick coating

You're a special kind of conceited retarded, huh

[Anonymous No.15042890]

use smaller skillet, cut the cooking time, more butter, or lower the temp
pic one

I usually cook a scrambled egg in under 3 minutes, how many eggs are you using ?

[Anonymous No.15042901]

>smaller skillet
Might do
>more butter
Doesn't fix it, I've used up to 2tbsp before
>less time
So higher temp? Won't that make them rubbery?
>more time
Lower temp? I'd think that would make them stick worse
>how many eggs
3-4. But the How to Cook Everything cookbook author says he often takes 30 minutes to make scrambled eggs on Sundays, says more time=more flavor. I don't go that crazy, and I guess I'd be willing to go faster if it meant no sticking

>30min for scrambled eggs

Holy shit. Jack could smoke an entire brisket in that time.

More butter

[Anonymous No.15042967]

>>15042949
But that's so many calories, and I've gone up to 2 tbsp before and it's still been sticky

Don't let the eggs sit so long.

[Anonymous No.15043000]

Use more heat op. Also scramble the eggs right away and shake the pan. For a pan this size you need more butter and eggs. But it should work nevertheless. Most likely your pan is already shit. Did you wash it with soap or a sponge?

[Anonymous No.15043012]

>>15042804
Some nonstick pans just aren't really that nonstick. If you get the pan hotter it might stick less, but you might just want to try and find a better pan instead.

[Anonymous No.15043018]

>>15043000
Soap and a soft scrub brush. Other stuff doesn't stick much. But I think it might just be that the pan is too big for so few eggs, I'll try a small one

Ok chud

[Anonymous No.15043024]

>>15042980
I've tried constant movement too, but they leave a trail as I push them once they hit a certain point. I guess I need more heat and a shorter cook time in a smaller pan

[Anonymous No.15043031]

ok bud :DDD

Get a new pan. Or soak your pan while you eat.

>But the How to Cook Everything cookbook author says he often takes 30 minutes to make scrambled eggs on Sundays
you have been memed my friend. it takes no more than 2 minutes to make scrambled eggs. medium heat, and stir constantly. the sticking at the bottom is because the eggs touching the surface overcooked and dried. cook them quicker and keep scraping the bottom of the pan.

I mean if the skillet to hot for a long time, it might build up crust
I usually do it this way https://youtu.be/16adnCof_xA

Nigga he didn't say that was the only way to cook them, he just said it's better

Do you think I typed that shit out and formatted it, you dense motherfucker? Do you really need the link to the website, where you can read the same text I've posted with the same amount of accredited scholarly proof? Or can you just stop being a whiny little bitch faggot and shut up?

Something dissolving is not the same as something getting dried up. You have brain damage.

[Anonymous No.15043204]

>>15043178
The spray sticks to the coating which then has to be scraped off to remove it, rendering your pan no longer non-stick. Either way, the end result of using Pam on your nonstick skillet is that it ruins the coating. You retarded fucking monkey.

[Anonymous No.15043231]

>>15042812
nonstick always leeches into your food so there really isn't a problem with using Pam

[Anonymous No.15043247]

Low heat and stir constantly, use more butter.

>30 minutes to cook eggs

Thats a blatant lie you were told, I make runny ones within 3 minutes of them touching the pan.

Oh and while Ive never in 31 years used a non stick pan, in both my Le Creuset and deBuyers, by doing what Ive said I have never had issues whatsoever with sticking.
