you’ll only see water bead up when you hit certain temps.

Leidenfrost effect FTW

Basically If you FIRST heat up your stainless steel cookware to the point that when you drip some water on it, it "beads up" instead of immediately boiling away, your cookware becomes temporarily non-stick. Just don't want to go a lot hotter than that, or you'll do things like burn butter (unless using Ghee butter or something with a higher "smoke point")
