Let’s Start At The Very Beginning – Sous Vide

I had a very exciting parcel last week.

So what is a Sous Vide Supreme?

The sous vide technique has been the secret of great chefs worldwide for decades. The award-winning SousVide Supreme is an amazing all-in-one sous vide water oven designed to bring the sous vide culinary technique into home kitchens and restaurants at an affordable price. The sous vide (pronounced “soo-veed”) technique involves cooking food in vacuum-sealed pouches submerged in a water bath held at a precisely-controlled temperature. This foolproof method eliminates guesswork and lets anyone cook foods with incomparable taste and texture: steak perfectly cooked edge-to-edge, vibrant vegetables, juicy tender chicken breasts, and ribs with the meat literally falling off the bone. All at the push of a button!

Sounds good yes?

Over the next few months I’m going to be sharing my journey with the Sous Vide with you. I will post recipes, ideas, tips and any successes and failures I may have.

Having never used this before I started at the very beginning with basics such as chicken, vegetables and eggs coming up in my first recipe post.

Let me know if you have any ideas for dishes I can create or any questions you have about the Sous Vide technique and in turn I will try to share my experiences as fully as possibly with you.

Recipes that will be coming up soon include:

Perfectly Plain Chicken
A Really Eggy Egg
Brown Sugar and Mustard Gammon

And lots more.
