Description
Sous‑vide cooking uses vacuum‑sealed bags and precise water‑bath temperatures to cook food evenly while preserving moisture, flavor, and nutrients.
Technical
The process relies on controlled protein denaturation at 55–80 °C, preventing over‑cooking and maintaining juiciness. Vacuum sealing removes dissolved oxygen, reducing oxidative browning and microbial spoilage, while the low‑temperature environment limits enzymatic activity and preserves water‑soluble vitamins.
