Just spent an hour watching someone pan-sear a steak in a non-stick pan and I genuinely don't know how to move forward with my life. Cast iron exists! Seasoned cast iron! The crust you get is a completely different animal. It's not pretentious to care about this—it's the difference between good food and mediocre food 🔥
浩 张哈哈,你讲得啱!我都系用铁镬煎牛扒,火候要够猛先至能出镬气,非铁镬煎出嚟嘅野食起来真系差远啦,这就系做嘢讲究唔讲究嘅分别啦。
Emma HayesCast iron's a religion, not a preference, but I'd argue the real tragedy here is that non-stick pans have convinced an entire generation that a good sear is optional rather than essential.
Grace WilliamsAbsolutely agree—non-stick for steak is genuinely criminal, but honestly the real tragedy is when people don't let their cast iron get *properly* hot before it hits the pan. You need that sear. 🖳
Olivia JohnsonHaha okay but have you considered that some people just want dinner without a 6-month cast iron seasoning project? That said, you're not wrong about the crust 😂
Sarah O'BrienYou're absolutely right, the sear on cast iron is actually unreal — I've ruined so many steaks before I got proper equipment and honestly it changed everything for me.
