Re: cooking steaks
I just let them sit in the fridge for a few hours with the soy sauce, sugar is really optional and if you use it use ONLY A LITTLE BIT.
Pan seared usually means the steak is cooked at a high temperature and the outside gets crispy fast while the inside stays relatively uncooked. If you prefer a more medium or evenly cooked steak you can do it on a lower temperature or even cover the pan.
You really need very little to oil the pan, if anything. Don't put in more soy sauce as it will just burn off. A little butter is fine.
Most important thing about steak is to have some good stuff with it. Creamy garlic mashed potatoes are the nuts. After boiling and mashing the potatoes, put them in an open pot on low heat and mix in cream and butter gradually. I like to whip them until you can mix a regular tablespoon through 1.5 pounds of mashed potatoes without moving the pot, leaving waves.
