Sous vide (pronounced sue-veed) is a popular cooking technique that was once limited to high-end restaurants but is now used in casual dining settings and even in the home. Sous vide cooking uses vacuum sealed food, a hot water bath and an immersion circulator to heat product, giving chefs and home cooks absolute temperature control over their final product.
Regarded as a preferred method for cooking proteins, the food product placed in the water bath is cooked for longer than usual cooking times, usually 1 to 7 hours, maybe longer, at an accurately regulated temperature. Foods cooked in this manner ensures that all products have ample time to soak in marinades and natural juices, leading to consistently better tasting food.
The sous vide method reduces product waste as meats retain their volume. The traditionally cooked steak loses up to 40% of its volume due to drying out. Steaks cooked with precision cooking ensure meats are cooked to proper temperatures and retain their plumpness every time.
