Why does food sometimes stick in my nonstick cookware?

If food is sticking to your nonstick cookware, there may be residue on the nonstick coating that is causing food to stick. Visit our article on cleaning and deep-cleaning your nonstick cookware.

Nonstick pans can become less nonstick over time and use, as the coating wears off. If you use metal utensils or high heat, the nonstick coating can become even less effective. Additionally, food can stick to the pan if it's not heated properly or if there is not enough oil in the pan.
