•ÿWhat it is?
Low temperature cooking
is any cooking procedure where the cooking
temperature is at or close to the desired final core temp.
In traditional
cooking,
the cooking temperature always exceeds the desired
ready-to-
eat temperatures.
With low temperature cooking meat
cooks at a low
temperature over a long period of time. Using this method, meat loses
less liquid (less molecul
ar
break
down
)
and
maintain
s
organoleptic
characteristic (vitamins, proteins and so
on) keeping
f
reshness, flavor and
juiciness intact.
This cooking method is particularly suitable for large and
tender pieces of
meat.
For precision we recommend using a proprietary food
thermometer to
monitor the core temperature.
Food
can
be
cooked
to
a
core
temperature
of
up
to
70
°C
in
the
food
warming
drawer.
Meat
which
needs
to
be
cooked
to
a
core
temperature
higher
than
70
°C
is
not
suitable
for
cooking
in
the
food
warming
drawer.
The

reading
gives
information
about
the
degree
of
cooking
in
the

of
a
piece
of
meat.
The
lower
the
core
temperature,
the
less
cooked
the
meat
is
in
the
middle:

1.
Preheat the culinary drawer for 15 min to 70 °C.
2.
Sear the meat with a little oil in a hot pan to preserve flavour (check
table
s
on p
p
10
-13
).
3.
Cover the meat properly with
suitable food-safe plastic
wrap.
4.
The cooking duration depends on the size of the individual pieces of
meat (check table
s
on p
p
10
-13
).
5.
Put the covered meat on a plate and use a chronometer to calculate the
cooking end
time.
