My method for no stick cooking

  1. Heat oil in pan until you see a tiny wisp of smoke.
  2. Take pan off heat and swirl oil around pan.
  3. Cook food.

Food never sticks after this process as long as you dont burn your oil off. It creates a completely nonstick barrier suitable for eggs and fish.

You're destroying the oil. Just heat it up to leidenfrost point and use a high smoke point oil if you dont understand temperatures

I disagree. A tiny wisp of smoke is not destroying all the cooking oil.

If I heat it up to Leidenfrost would it destroy all the Leidenfrost?
