    This is the best demonstration I've seen teaching how to fry veggies without oil. It hits all the points, explaining sauté vs steaming, explaining the leidenfrost effect (water in the pan), the actual temperature range using a heat gun (I find this helps the most.), and how to do this without resorting to a non-stick pan.
    11 out of 10. This is the video everyone should be watching.

    Terrific video! Where it always seems oil is necessary to sauté with, you have proven oil is not required to transfer heat from the pan to the protein, starch, or vegetables. I need a handheld thermometer for sure!

    2 Things: EMPTY PAN ON INDUCTION PLATE, and which veggies work best this way. Hi, great video. I'm wondering why a number of sites like All-Clad, LeCreuset, GoodHousekeeping, etc. say to never preheat or heat an empty stainless steel pan on an induction stove because it will warp. Did/does yours warp? #2, also, I noticed in comments below you said doing starch vegs like potatoes and tofu don't work that great. Which other veggies would this "dry" method work best on, other than garlic, onions and bell peppers? Thanks!

    • @PlantBasedBistro
      @PlantBasedBistro  4 месяца назад

      As for the induction thing... no idea. Sorry! We have yet to have stainless steel warp. Veggies? Anything really works. Potatoes and squash are difficult. Most others work just fine.

    I do this on cast iron but don't get it nearly as hot. The cast iron has a thin layer of oil seasoning which I wipe clean with a paper towel and I leave it on medium to medium low ish for 5 mins minimum, then add my food and it doesn't stick.

  • @whitevoodooman7276
    @whitevoodooman7276 10 месяцев назад

    if you put a lid on the pan while it cooking then the steam , evaporation of the water will retain inside and make it stick less too

  • @BeesAndSunshine
    @BeesAndSunshine Год назад

    What do you think of doing the reverse where you soften the insides with parboiling or steaming first and then saute? I think it could potentially give a crispier exterior.
    For deglazing I like vinegar. You have to be careful with the amount you use because it can change the acidity quite a bit which will change the flavor, but some acidity can really make certain foods pop.

    • @PlantBasedBistro
      @PlantBasedBistro  Год назад +2

      It’s harder to brown that way. I find getting the food a little brown then deglazing works best. Vinegar… only of you want that flavor added to the dish :)

    • @Danielle_1234
      @Danielle_1234 Год назад +1

      Traditionally in french cooking you want to deglaze with wine. Vinegar is a great alternative.
      Doing it in reverse works for any sort of veggie that you want to lose its crunch, because you can flatten it down onto the pan giving more contact with the pan. So e.g. this works well when caramelizing onions or making french onion soup. (It might work well with mushrooms?) It works well with bell peppers if you want to incorporate them finely into a sauce. I'm not sure what else though.

    • @PlantBasedBistro
      @PlantBasedBistro  3 месяца назад +2

      It's really not. It's just concentrated fat. You're far better off eating the olives themselves. The small amount of nutrients left in the oil is nothing compared to the pure concentrated fat that it contains. I've spent a LOT of time researching these things, and the consensus is that oils are just not needed in a healthy diet and only add extra calories.
