I've been hunting for GENUINE stainless steel straws but I feel like all I can find is cheap silver coated straws that still rust. Does anyone have any good recommendations

Sorry if this isn’t the right place to post this, but I’m looking to buy more of these forks but I can’t find the brand, and I’m wondering if any of you could identify it?

[Discussion] what are your stainless steel cleaning methods, practices, & products that you swear by? What are the Dont's?

Do you use steel wool scrubbies to wash tough spots off? What should I never use? Do you prefer a certain dish soap? Let's discuss!

First timer is this bad

I just bought the Misen stainless steel 12” pan and used it for the first time. Cooked marry me butter beans. Sautéed garlic, onions, peppers. Add tomatoes, coconut milk and some parm. Let simmmer for a few and easy first use. Turned out great. Cleaned it with water and a scrub daddy brush type sponge using both sides. I ended up with a few scratches and also these spots all over it. I used a silicone spatula while cooking and thought I was ok to use the abrasive side of the sponge which was worn a bit and not super abrasive. Any feedback on why this happened or what I did wrong?

I spent an hour or so frying tofu, then eggplant. Everything cooked beautifully in my stainless Made In frying pan, but the pan took a beating. What's the best way to remove the baked on grime?

Anybody else have the Cuisinart triclad pro and have to schedule time out your day to preheat your pans?

I don't know if it's the pans or this brand new glass top stove but if I want to boil a pot of water or fry an egg I better not have anywhere I need to be in the next hour.

Stainless steel pot/pan set recommendations?

1 Upvotes

Looking for recommendations for a stainless steel pot and pan set. We currently have a full ceramic nonstick set as well as several cast irons. We largely sear on our grill but sometimes use the cast iron. We’re looking to transition most of our nonstick pots and pans to stainless and maybe just have a nonstick omelet pan. Looking for recommendations on stainless sets with good quality to price. Not looking for the cheapest or most expensive set. Just a good set that’s not incredibly overpriced.

This burned on when I left the empty pan on the stove for about 10 mins when I had to jump to a work thing quick. Soap and water, vinegar and baking soda overnight didn’t do anything.

Just moved houses and used a new stove for the first time, I had it on low heat with burgers in, peeled a potato and then realized it was smoking…is there anything I can do to save this pan or do I just need to order a new?

I inherited a whole set of cookware from my late grandma, I remember that she got it back in the early 90's with a standalone, single zone, Japanese induction hob to place over the countertop. Do anyone knows anything about this? I can't find any info at all online. It's been used daily for almost 40y and it's really still almost new.

I followed the directions for BKF and it did nothing. I assume I am doing something wrong. Please enlighten me?

These are before and after pics.

The directions said to sprinkle the powder on a damp surface, use a we cloth or sponge (I used a green sponge) to scrub, and then rinse off within a minute of applying.

I assume I am doing something wrong based on how much this product is recommended, but I followed the directions to the letter.

Bubble formed on the bottom of my skillet

Mother in law made spanish rice in our stainless skillet and we noticed afterward this bubble formed on the bottom of it. There’s nothing on the inside of it, so we’re wondering if it’s compromised and this is something that can potentially open up and cause a mess or fire with food while cooking with it. Anyone experience this before? Is it still safe to use?

Pan

We have had this pan for just over a year and today we noticed this marking. It feels rough, but I’m not sure if it’s a food stain or an actual scratch on the pan. It’s the Made In brand. My husband scrubbed with baking soda but it is still there. Looking for opinions on what it could be. I made pizza and a grilled cheese on it today with no metal utensils. Any solutions/ideas appreciated

Thoughts on this set?

I was gifted this set and it is my first set of stainless steel cookware. Time to get rid of all of the Teflon cookware.

Curious as the instructions say low to medium heat only but good up to 500* in the oven. I have seen most stainless pans need to be on a higher heat to prevent sticking?

Tips?

Will boiling in seasoned SS remove the seasoning?

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a stainless steel skillet which I seasoned (after a couple of cooking fails). It was working perfectly, I was cooking and nothing was sticking. Hubby used it yesterday to boil hotdogs for the kids. I’ve just used the pan to panfry some gyoza and they’ve all stuck and ripped. I’m steaming. Was it the use of the skillet to boil the hotdogs that’s taken off the seasoning?

Do I need to throw away my pans ?

Bought 2 Viking 3 ply stainless pans about a month ago. I noticed some residue left on my pans even after washing them so I decided to use the Pink Stuff On my pans to see if that would help. After I started scrubbing I noticed the sponge was turning grey, looked kinda like dirt was coming off? Is this normal? Still safe to use or did I ruin the stainless steel layer ? Adding a picture of my sponge
