Take a cue from chefs and take the guesswork out of preparing meals
with this ingenious appliance. The latest trend in home cooking is
sous-vide cooking, where food is typically sealed in plastic
pouches and cooked in a temperature-controlled water bath. The
result is perfectly cooked meat, fish, vegetables and eggs. Sous
vide machines are one of the hottest selling and popular appliances
today but despite their popularity, most home cooks are somewhat
intimidated by them once they bring them home. Where do you start?
What should you first try? This is where Jay Nutt, a professional
chef and bestselling author, and Jennifer MacKenzie, also a
bestseller author, come in. Taking a friendly and very
easy-to-follow approach, they walk you through all the basics of
this ingenious appliance, ensuring predictable and perfect results
every time. All the information a home cook needs is here, from
properly prepping the food, proper bag and glass use (typically for
eggs), desired cooking times and temperatures, to tips and
techniques for finishing your food to caramelized perfection. Sous
vide machines are all about efficiency and effectiveness and with
this in mind, Jay and Jennifer provide clear directions including
charts, making the transition to sous vide a fun and stress-free
process. The 125 recipes were especially developed with the sous
vide in mind and they are simply delicious. There are recipes for
every occasion and for every component of a meal - from incredible
Broccoli and Cheddar Breakfast Strata, to Thai Green Curry Mussels
in Coconut Milk appetizers, Porchetta Sandwich with Spicy Aioli and
Shredded Lettuce on Ciabatta Roll for the perfect lunch or get
together for the big game. The main courses and sides are perfect
family fare and also do double duty for effortless entertaining -
from Super-Slow Whisky, Garlic and Brown Sugar Brisket, to Garlic
and Lemon Chicken Breasts to a sublime Dijon and Rosemary Leg of
Lamb with Red Wine Sauce. Jay and Jennifer have also included
vegetarian dishes and side dish ideas along with desserts that are
tailor-made for the sous vide like Chocolate Almond Bread Pudding
and Creme Caramel. These recipes prove that you'll be able to
achieve results simply not possible through using traditional
cooking methods. Yes, sous vide may require some preparation and
planning but the results are worth it!
