ABOUT SOUS VIDE
French for “under vacuum,” sous vide is a cooking method in which food is sealed and slow-cooked in water at precise temperatures. The method was discovered by Cuisine Solutions Chief Scientist, Dr. Bruno Goussault. Sous vide gives our chefs complete control to create incredible textures and impeccable flavor every time. Sous vide cooking can be used for food preparation of a wide range of ingredients, including poultry, beef, pork, fish and shellfish, vegetables and fruits, gourmet sauces, and desserts. It has become a staple of commercial kitchens around the world and is rapidly revolutionizing the way food is prepared, served, and enjoyed.
