"Sous Vide" is french for "under vacuum" and refers to the process of vacuum sealing food and cooking it in a temperature controlled water bath. Professional cooks and high quality restaurants have been using this technique for a long time. Now this new machine makes it super simple for anyone to cook the same way right in your own kitchen. The benefits of Sous Vide are huge. Steak gets that perfect red colour all the way through. The juices and aromas stay inside the meat so it keeps all the rich flavours. There is no risk of overcooking. It also works great for cooking fish, chicken, vegetables and much more.
