Sous vide recipes are popular for those who love food and want food to come out perfect without worrying about overcooking or undercooking the recipe. Precision and perfection are what sous vide cooking is all about.
What is sous vide cooking?
Sous Vide is French for 'under vacuum. Sous Vide cooking is the water bath cooking method that was developed by professional Chefs in France where meats, fish, vegetables and more are vacuum-packed in a food save plastic bag and cooked in a sous vide machine or with a water circulator at a precise lower temperature.
Water displacement method is used to removed air from the bags when a vacuum sealer is not available to get an airtight bag.
Previously only available in high-end restaurants, hotels and commercial cooking Sous vide is becoming very popular for home cooks.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SOUS VIDE STEAK?
The short answer is, it depends. But I would definitely plan on at least an hour per inch of thickness.
The traditional methods of grilling steak could take from 6-15 minutes but the exact internal temperature is not guaranteed from edge to edge.
With the precise temperature control of the sous vide water, the steak will be your desired temperature from edge to edge. For example, sous vide prime rib will take from 6-18 hours depending on the texture and doneness you are looking to enjoy.
Plus, if you need a few extra minutes, and up to several hours, before you serve your steak, the sous vide method will keep your steak at your desired temperature without overcooking. What you give up in time you more than make up for in quality.
When I am asked 'what is a simple recipe to start out with sous vide', I point them to this collection of sous vide recipes. Poached eggs are one of the first recipes I send because poaching eggs the traditional way can be a bit tricky but this recipe gives you perfectly poached eggs every time.
Sous vide bacon is a great example of a super simple 24 hour cook that will give you amazing results. The bacon doesn't curl when you finish it off in the pan and the texture is meaty, yet crunchy.
Sous vide egg bites are also a great choice because they are the original simple sous vide recipe and everyone is clamoring to make the famous Starbucks egg bites at home. And then I tell them to read up on everything I know about sous vide cooking.
