Question:

In sauteing in a stainless steel pan, I can't seem to get the temperature right. Water droplets either all scatter or it just stays in spot and dissipates. I've tried turning it down, but still seems to do same?

— Ann Smith

Answer:

So your pan is heated already to the temperature that you like. I should have brought it upstairs. But one of the things that I've been having a lot of fun with this is an infrared thermometer. And I thermometer I took the temperature of everything. I'm not sure what the answer to that is Peggy, but it sounds to me. If they're scattering, it might be too hot. But I can't answer the question. But as long as you're cooking without oil, I think that's the that's the main event.
