Comment on YSK You don't need Teflon pans for nonstick

Even the “get a pan ridiculously hot to sear some meat” is in the 300s and MAYBE capping around 500 which isn’t great with canola but is still doable since the food will lower the pan temperature pretty quick anyway.
So if your pan is getting that hot then you are doing it wrong.

I’m not doing that. As I said, I use lower temperatures.

Then whatever facebook nonsense you read doesn’t apply? Because the heat never gets hot enough to even reach the smoke point?
