Ruined by Technology These "Non-stick" pans from Costco

Apparently I'm an idiot. But they still aren't great

Update: going in for round 2 with a lot of butter and low heat. Stay tuned (10:58pst)

Update update : see pics below of retest on low heat with all the butter

Use the water test. If the water beads and moves around the pan, it's ready to go! If it evaporates, it needs to keep heating. The add the food. But never crowd the pan.
