What Does Sous Vide Mean?
Sous vide, literally translated to “under a vacuum,” is a style of cooking where foods are cooked at a low temperature, slowly & precisely. This low & slow cooking method allows Gently Cooked recipes to retain moisture and maintain the bioavailability of nutrients more effectively than traditional high-heat processing.
