Why You Would Cook Sou Vide
Cooking
Sou Vide gives you one of the highest levels
of control that a cooking method can offer. In
the words of Food Labs Kenji Lopez-Alt
"No poking with a thermometer, no cutting and
peeking, no jabbing with your finger—just
perfect results every single time."
Another Advantage to Sou
Vide cooking is the time spent cooking is
generally hands off and the only time you need
to spend one hundred percent focused on the
steak is the final searing and preparation
stage. The cooked steaks can rest for several
hours before being finished.
The last main advantage is
the consistency of the results that are only
attainable with this method. An prime example
being the steak pictured below. A perfect medium
rare from edge to edge with a thin golden brown
sear completely encasing the flavor.
