    A lot of instructions/recipes will tell you to bring the oil to smoking, though. The other issue is that some oils smoke lower than others

      Most of the time they only suggest that as a proxy for telling the temperature. You don’t actually need oil at that temp.

        Sure.

        So, on a gas stove…. How do you determine pan temp?

        (I don’t. I’ve an induction stove. That automatically keeps it at xxx temp. Yes. It’s wonderful.)
