Sous vide cookers

What is sous vide cooking?

Sous vide cooking, also known as vacuum cooking, is a cooking technique that involves placing food in a tightly sealed plastic bag and then cooking it in hot water at a specific temperature. This technique preserves the flavors and nutrients of the food, as well as its texture and appearance. It is often used in high-end cooking, although it has become increasingly popular in home cooking.

There are several reasons why sous vide cooking is used. First, it helps preserve the nutrients and flavors of food. It cooks in a tightly sealed bag, preventing air and bacteria from entering the food. Additionally, sous vide cooking ensures precise temperature control, which helps achieve consistent and precise cooking results. Finally, sous vide cooking can help preserve the texture and appearance of food, which is especially useful for delicate or fragile foods.

Our range of sous vide cookers

A sous vide cooker is a household appliance that cooks food under vacuum. It typically consists of a heating element to keep the water at the desired cooking temperature, a pumping system to extract air from the plastic bags, and a control panel to adjust the temperature and cooking time. Sous vide cookers are usually smaller than other cooking appliances, making them easier to use and store in a kitchen. They are often used by professional chefs to prepare high-quality dishes.

For both professionals and individuals, sous vide cooking offers real advantages. It allows you to cook at low temperatures to create excellent dishes, achieving a more delicate result. You can also reheat your already cooked food that you have previously vacuum-sealed and frozen. This cooking method does not exceed 100 degrees. It prevents damage to the food cells and prevents dehydration during preparation. Cooked in their pouches, your meat, fish, and vegetables will not release their contents. This prevents loss of the flavor and aroma of your dishes.

Why use a vacuum immersion heater?

Using a sous vide immersion circulator offers precise cooking down to the degree. This kitchen tool circulates heat throughout your water-filled container. This helps achieve consistent cooking and cook your food thoroughly for the desired amount of time. Since the food is cooked in a pouch and in its own juices, it won't lose its flavor during cooking. With a sous vide cooker, your food will be cooked to perfection, whether you're a professional or not.
