Command of the Week, number 5.
wait
usage: wait --until CONDITION
The pan is not ready yet.
A lot of sticking and grey food comes from impatience in the first two minutes. Food added to a cold pan sticks, then stews in its own liquid.
Heat the empty pan first. Add the oil and wait until it shimmers and flows as easily as water. Then add the food. You should hear it sizzle immediately. Silence is a bug report.
