Description
Sous vide cooking uses precise temperature control to manipulate protein denaturation and collagen gelatinization, with low-temperature methods preserving moisture and high-temperature methods ensuring rapid pasteurization.
Technical
At 55 °C myosin denatures while collagen remains triple‑helical; at 60 °C collagen begins to unwind, releasing gelatin; at 70 °C collagen fully gelatinizes, increasing water retention and altering texture.
