What's the best way to fry eggs in a steel pan?
Ron
03/21/06 		I recently bought a stainless steel cookware set from calphalon. The pots are easy enough and even the frying pan was easy when I made chicken in it, but my question is how do I fry foods like eggs and pancake batter without tearing it apart. I've tried putting olive oil on the pan but it didn't seem to work when I tried to make some over easy eggs. Please help.

With all the news lately of teflon having possible cancer causing agents, she felt more comfortable with the stainless steel. I've never used stainless steel before and my attempts to use the frying pans are just becoming a sticky mess. I'll try a lower setting. I guess I just have to get out of my habits I had with non stick and figure out new methds with the new pans. Thanks
