Description
Vacuum-sealing and sous-vide cooking for precise temperature control and preservation of delicate ingredients.
Technical
Vacuum-sealing removes oxygen, preventing browning and oxidation reactions, while sous-vide cooking involves sealing food in airtight bags and cooking it in a water bath at a controlled temperature, allowing for denaturation of proteins and preservation of texture and flavor.
Science
Primary Reaction
Denaturation of proteins, Maillard reaction inhibition
