Would poached eggs stick to this pan?

Eggs are poached in boiling water. With water in the pan first, the eggs never touch the surface of the hot pan.

I don't really know. Assuming that your doing the poached egg. You may have to adjust the water that you are putting in and make sure your toaster in level. I boiled an egg in the machine for the first time the other day, and it was a medium (kind of running) so next time I will adjust the water by adding more water for a hard boiled.

I returned it because it did NOT do eggs without sticking. I did buy this pan Vollrath Z4012 Wear-Ever Aluminum Fry Pan with CeramiGuard II Non-Stick Coating, 12-Inch and I love it!!!

Add water to a 10 inch or bigger pan so Norpro Poacher is barely sitting in water. Add the eggs, cover the pan and let boil for few minutes. BUT the eggs sticks badly. So, I spray each poacher with non-stick and add a little oil so the eggs can come out fine.

If you are simply pouring eggs into the ring, then no scratching. But if you are pressing heavily to form pancakes, etc., then maybe.If you have All-Clad non-stick, then no worries - lifetime guarantee.

Probably not, if it did they would rise way above the cover while cooking, and might be undone in the middle. If I use 2 eggs, I use medium or large, but if my eggs are extra large, I only cook one at a time. I hope this helps. I am very happy with the item, it makes cooking an egg fast in the morning and I just wipe it clean with a damp paper towel after use, no messy pan to wash!

Yes, it's true. The pans need to be coated with a good dose of oil, and there still may be some sticking. You need to heat the pan over LOW heat for 5 full minutes before adding the fish or eggs. A much easier way to go would be to buy a Wolfgang Puck Teflon coated pan for egg and fish dishes.

I usually use oil or butter but I did notice that once the egg has absorbed the oil and the pan appears dry it doesn't stick at all. I am going to buy more of these pans because they are the best I have seen as far as not sticking.

NO-It shouldn't. It is a baked on enamel finish and not a non-stick coating.

Not for eggs, I use it to grill chicken and meats. I actually have a similar pan I use for everything. It doesn't stick I love it!

It is not. If, you know how to cook in stainless steel, you will find that most things don't stick. I couldn't cook eggs without them cooking, so I ordered nonstick skillets to go with this set. I love my set. The skillets I ordered work great as well.

Fish and eggs will stick unless you use enough oil and proper technique. I heat the pan on medium, and once it's hot (a squirt of water should dance across the surface) I use at least a tablespoon of coconut oil or bacon fat and let that melt before putting the fish or eggs in. It took a couple times to get the technique down, but my eggs and fish never stick now. Just don't be afraid to use a decent amount of oil.

No, I haven't had any problem with sticking, but I'm inclined to say that the best non-teflon nonstick pan would be a well-seasoned cast iron one.

I never did eggs or omelets in this pan. I have sauteed various foods and if enough oil or butter is used it doesn't stick. Even if something does stick, it cleans up very easily. I will say it is a pretty hefty pan and hard for me to lift but I'm 72 and have arthritis so for anyone without any health issues this would not be a problem. All in all, pretty satisfied.

I suppose if you were frying eggs, and without turning them over this pan would work. It does have ridges so would be tricky with scrambled of over easy. On the other hand if you used a rubber/silicon scraper scrambled would work.

No it will stick. Due to the ridged surface area. Howver a coating of pam/cooking spray prevents that and has an easy clean up
