I bought a refillable spray bottle designed for cooking oils. Unfortunately the oils I have tried don't compare to the ones in the cans (PAM cooking spray with lecithin) Can anyone suggest a good refillable substitute for PAM? Anyone tried mixing up their own lecithin laced cooking oils?

What is it you’re looking to get from the lethicin? What do you think is missing from just straight canola? What problems are you having? I think this would help with alternative suggestions.

I’ve used a refillable oil spray bottle a few times in my life. I’ve got back to packaged cooking spray because I’m the refillable bottles, the nozzles always clog or degrade over time.

The oils definitely help keep the food from sticking, in fact butter/margarine seem to work the best for whatever reason, but they just don't seem to compare to the non-stick ability of pam. I am using anodized aluminum pans. We were trying to find an alternative to throwing out multiple cooking spray canisters each month (we cook a lot and have a medium sized family). I've noticed this especially when cooking eggs (in the pans) and salmon on the grill.

Anodized aluminum pans are really bad for non stock cooking without seasoning it.

Look up how to aluminum pans and drain the pan. Also don’t scrub off the seasoning, just keep building that up.
