How does a Sous Vide work?

A sous vide machine uses a heated metal coil to warm water to a precise temperature with circulation. Once the sous vide machine is attached to any water-filled pot, you'll set the desired time and temperature, clip your bag of food to the side of the pot and wait for the delicious results. Because you're cooking at one constant temperature, a sous vide will take longer than preparing food on a grill or pan. The benefit of cooking your food at a constant temperature is that you'll never have to worry about overcooking anything and everything is cooked evenly.

What does Sous Vide mean?

Sous Vide is a French term that literally translates as "under vacuum." This term makes sense because the method of sous vide is cooking food in a container that can be vacuum sealed in temperature controlled water. Because your food is prepared in a ziplock-like-container, it retains all its juices resulting in moist and tender meals.

What are the benefits of sous vide?

There are several benefits to the cooking method of sous vide. The biggest benefit is that you'll always achieve consistent and accurate results. Because you're cooking at a precise temperature in water, your food will never be under or overcooked. The immersion circulator allows your food to cook evenly, so your food is never chewy or raw on the inside. Food also maintains its moisture and flavors due to the natural juices that are kept in the ziplock bag. 

Another significant benefit to sous vide is convenience. You can prepare meals in a bag in advance, then when you're ready just place it in water, set the time and temperature, and walk away. You don't have to continuously monitor how your food is cooking, because the app or device will let you know when your meal is done. You can also get updates from the app to see how much time your meal has left. There's also no messy cleanup with sous vide. Once you take your food out of the bag, you'll just have to throw it away and empty out the pot of water.

What can a Sous Vide Cook?

There are thousands of sous vide recipes with a variety of different foods that you can cook. When most people think of the sous vide they think of making the perfect steak, chicken, pork or salmon, but there's more than just meat that the sous vide can perfect. You can prepare veggies and fruit, soft boiled eggs, rice or quinoa, and even bake cookies. The recipes are endless, and there are several cookbooks on Amazon that are just for the sous vide.
