WHAT IS SOUS VIDE?

You must be wondering what is “Sous Vide“. It is a method of cooking meat or fish by vacuum-sealing the meat or fish and immerse in temperature controlled water. Because the food is surrounded by water, it cooks evenly and comes out tender and juicy.

Anova Precision Cooker sous vide is the best toy one can have in the kitchen! The food is never over or undercooked using “Sous Vide”. It comes with different power. The Anova Precision Cooker sous vide that I have is the 900W. We find this is good enough for Chicken or Ribs. If you want more power, you can go for a higher power (1200W) Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker Pro.

HOW TO USE SOUS-VIDE?

• Firstly, attach the Precision Cooker to your own stock pot or Anova Sous Vide Cooker Cooking container
• Secondly, fill the pot or container with water, 
• Lastly, add the food in a sealed bag, and cook manually with the built-in controls or with the Anova App.
