Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking
Useful tips
– Freeze liquids such as marinades
before vacuum-sealing to prevent
them from escaping from the vacuum
bag.
– Fold the edges of the vacuum bag
outwards for filling for clean, perfect
weld seams.
– If you do not want to eat the food
directly after cooking, put it in iced
water and then store it at a maximum
of 3 °C. In this way, you can maintain
quality and taste while extending the
life of the food.
– After cooking, cut the vacuum bag on
all sides for easier access to the
food.
– Briefly fry meat and firm types of fish
(such as salmon) before serving for a
roasted aroma.
– Use the brine or marinade of
vegetables, fish, or meat to make a
sauce.
– Serve the food on pre-warmed
plates.
