INSTRUCTIONS FOR SOUS VIDE STICK
WHAT IS SOUS VIDE?
Food, such as meat, fish or vegetables vacuum-sealed in a bag is gently cooked at relatively
low, constant temperatures below 100°C over a longer period of time. With sous vide
cooking temperature and cooking time are precisely controlled so that overcooking is
basically no longer possible. Thanks to the vacuum bags that are used fluids cannot leak out;
meat particularly cooks in its own juices and hardly loses any weight. Food prepared in this
manner retains its full flavor.
Temperatures in the range between 55°C and 65°C are ideal. At 62°C the cooked food is
pasteurized. However, for pasteurization the desired effect (killing off microorganisms) is
only achieved through the right combination of time and temperature. Food that is cooked
in the sous vide process and then stored, must be placed in ice water and cooled
immediately after it is cooked. Thereafter the bag can either be frozen or stored for several
days in the refrigerator at a temperature below 3°C. In this regard, please see the
appropriate recipes and recommendations for the individual dishes.
If sensitive persons or persons at risk (immuno-compromised individuals, pregnant women,
small children, etc.) will eat the prepared food, always ensure that the food has been heated
for an adequate period of time and at as high temperature as possible. This is the only way
to ensure that any existing germs have been killed off.
When choosing the vacuum bags, note that they must be suitable for heating as well as
freezing, to avoid damaging the bag. Extensive literature regarding sous vide is available, on
the Internet you can also find many video instructions and informative websites. We
recommend that you first spend some time familiarizing yourself with the details and then
with patience and fun implement the knowledge you have acquired in practice.
