Sarah Carey is the editor of Everyday Food magazine and her job is to come up with the best ways to make fast, delicious food at home. But she's also a mom to two hungry kids, so the question "What's for dinner?" is never far from her mind -- or theirs, it seems! Her days can get crazy busy (whose don't?), so these videos are all about her favorite fast, fresh meals -- and the tricks she uses to make it all SO much easier.

Top tip: You can put the bag in the water and leave the top open a tad. The water pressure forces the air out of the bad, and then you can close it properly before full submersion.
SerAaron it looks like he didn't "Use all the online resources available to him". ALSO!! That steak was more on the medium well side
You both already said what I was gonna say. What a way to ruin a steak.
Another trick is using distilled water. No mineral deposit on or in the pod.
even easier toss in a knife and let it sink easy
ROy D thanks dude! havent heard anyone say that and it is so damn obvious why it works!!
I woke my kids up at 2am once dinner was ready. 😆
😂
funny!
Glad you're not my mother! LOL
Chatty Hilarious! Thank you for the laughter. You must be fun to be with. Wit. Peace be with you always.
Obviously Lacking some time management skills
Bought one of these three years back and it’s wonderful. Yes there is various ways to use it, fat or no fat for meat etc but the key point is that you get exact level of done. Also cheap cuts turn out wonderful. We often buy a whole rump, break it down into steaks and roasts, prep and vac seal , toss in the freezer then just put it into the bath frozen, add about an hour for roast and less for steaks and all the work is done.

I do have an aquarium heater.. I'll put it on max and see how it goes
Just dont forget to take the gold fish out.
@@Triple88a they could be an appetizer though?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
duy pham
lmfao
😂
I have never heard of this type of method to cook until a co-worker told me about it. I attempted it once, only to fail. But this video and explanation has definitely helped me pursue this type of cooking again. Thank you!
Yes I'd imagine there's quite a learning curve.
"The fear of over-cooking your fish or over-cooking your steak is really over..."
Over-cooks the steak.
Rick Roll 😂😂😂😂
He just over did it in browning it. I don't mind. I prefer medium anyways.
@@erikhansson22 This. The meat is at the ideal temperature when pulled from the sous vide bath, but gains additional heat in the final sear. You have to cool the meat down first to protect the cuts from overcooking. When I do meats, I put the bags in an ice bath or very cold water to drop the temp to cool. It's a pretty quick process, maybe only a minute or two. Then I open the bags, pat the steaks dry, season, and finish in a skillet.
Exactly
@@KittySkyfish I'm gonna have to try this next time.
“A little bit of oil” 😂😂😂😂😂
perfect video and perfect timing, i got my sous vide cooker as a christmas gift
After buying sous vide..... I prepare my dinner while eating my breakfast..... And.
Prepare breakfast while eating the dinner........ My life is Lol
HAHAHAHA!!!
Martha Stewart used these techniques while on house arrest--she had all the time in the world
Ugh same!
@john doe perfect temps, all the time, without much effort.... steaks that are close to reverse seared quality... not bad... you can leave your steaks unattended for 2+ hours and they aren't going to overcook.... not saying it's for everything, but still....
@john doe yes but the biggest benefit with these is that you don't lose any moisture.... At all. Another great benefit is you walk in from a long day of work, throw it in the pot, and go shower, watch vids, etc without fear of coming back to burnt food.
You might be okay with fish but when doing other meats you may find that adding fats to bag allow the flavors of the meat to dissolve into the oil and out of your food. The channel Sous Vide Everything has a nice video where they test their meats with and without butter and they found that cooking without the addition of butter made a juicier and more flavorful dish.
Edward Krusling Was going to make the same comment. Need to be very careful when adding fats to the bag. His reason, so the food doesn’t stick, was absurd in my mind. Never been a problem in any sous vide I’ve done or seen. Way better videos out there to learn from. This video is a step backwards from what is available on the net.
Also "140 degrees should give you a nice medium rare to medium"
*Takes it out*
"That's definitely the medium we were looking for"
*Looks at the steak*
That's OBVIOUSLY Medium-Well
+Steven Krische I've experienced that the skin of a fish stuck to the bag, after sous vide cooking, making it hard to transfer it to the hot skillet. The fish meat is no problem, just the skin.
I’m glad I got into sous vide everything videos before I saw this one, because this guy would have made me immediately and totally run from anything sous vide.
Boston BestEats but he put oil in the steak bag which is just dumb. It shows a lack of knowledge and studding on his part.
"A little olive oil..." *glug glug glug*
Thanks - I just got a water heater - can't wait to try it out!
“A little bit of olive oil”
Proceeds to drown the fish meat 😂
Yes, and chef speak for a little salt is a fist full. 😆
Sounds like he's used to using a lot of lubricant in everything he does.
@@yorickhunt3371 Hehe, good one 😂
Literally every tv chef does this 🤦♀️
@@BedrockLeadership I have wondered for years of watching cooking shows...why so much salt?
My favorite temperature for steak is 133 degrees. Absolutely wonderful for pork chops. So tender. Instead of searing with a pan you could use a torch. I spread compound butter on the sous vide steak. And then sear with a torch.
Interesting with the touch. I'm gonna try this
Extremely helpful. Thank you!
This Guy is fantastic and so helpful!
My son got me this, and I love it. Set it up dial the temp and forget it. The chicken is so moist....Love it, I have a different brand
What brand do you have???
Finally, I ordered sous vide on amazon. Lol.
I couldn't made up my mind but I did!
Thank you for the informations, Thomas!!
if you have a decent stove top, such devices are not needed. Because you can just do the temperature control yourself and to tell the temp just use a decent thermometer. It's what i do, because why buy a tool that does the work of things you already have. Only downside is, you wana check the pot of water on the stove every now and then. So it's not set and forget.
If you buy the Sous Vide , you gonna force yourself to Sous Vide every meals , whether you like it or not , to make money worth spending. Good luck
Well, at least you've made Bezos happy.
@@chowsing6000 sous vide is not even expensive. And god forbid you had to force yourself to cook your protein to perfection every single time.
@@ALegitimateUA-camr Sous vide is a genius invention if you want to prepare you protein to perfection every single time. You will never be able to cook your protein with same consistency and perfection on a stove, as you are able to with sous vide. Just the inconsistency in thin and thickness along a cut of meat. Makes it already there so hard to get a perfect target temperature every time. When you cook sous vide, you can have nice piece of Halibut, where the end of the cut is 1cm and the top is 4cm and you will still hit perfect target temp. If you cant see the benefits from this method, compared to using a stove or oven. Idk what to say to you then.
Very well made, great presentation. Great job.
Thank you. It was very helpful.
Sous vide is especially great for when you have to cook large batches of meats.
I had to cook 10 steaks the other week and just left them in the sous vide while I went about prepping everything else.
It honestly takes all the guesswork out and it doesn't take any extra time since you still have to prep and cook the rest of the meal.
Huy Ly Also good for very busy people
I had a barbecue at home and had lamb chops, rack and two huge 2 kg steaks in the water bath for 3 h. When my guests saw the pathetic amount of charcoal I had ignited they expected tragedy. I was done with all the grilling in 15 minutes and it was all perfect!
Does each steak require its own bag for Sous vide?
I have big ziploc bags so I put a few into each bag, as long as they lay in a single flat layer they cook just the same
Pili MF Also, make sure you space them a bit. It's not 100% required but pretty recommended
Excellent introduction, simple but very informative.
Thank you!
One of the better videos I've seen on sous vide
Excellent information!!
Thank you
Been doing sous vide for a few years now. This video covers all the basics on the technique.. Great information for someone new to the technology.
Do you have to cook in plastic? That's a big turn-off for me.
@@LoriFeldmanTheDatabaseDiva Why? Plastic is a safe thing to use to cook sous vide
I use it to warm up my pool. It really works fine.
Very helpful video! Thank you!
Excellent video! Thank you!
Using oil does not enhance the flavor for sous vide, it has the opposite effect. Oil will carry flavor away from your sous vide meat/fish and probably won’t end up on your plate. Oil should be used in the finishing stage (searing) only.
I Sous Vide all my roasts now. Easiest cooking ever, perfect roast every time.
Does it use a lot of electricity?
Awesome, I just found out about these, definitely going to get one.
Sous Vide.....definitely my next purchase....!!! THANK YOU..!!!
Great beginner's guide, Thomas. You did a great job at an overview. I've been reading about these for a year or more. I saw a recipe for canning pickles slowly so as to not to over process them, whereas they stay crisp by either standing over the pot to keep it a consistent temperature or.....using a sous vide. It's a sort of pasteurization technique I'll need to research more, but I just ordered my Anova thanks to this video. Nice job.
Thank you for a very educational tutorial! It was extremely helpful and encouraging!
It looks good he has his heart in it.
Very helpful, thank you!
I am not lying when I say sous vide is now an essential tool in my cooking arsenal, perfect steaks every time.
Egg yolk coagulates at a different temperature than the whites (145f or 63c (yolk) & 150f or 65c (whites)) which is why it thickens faster and easier. Be aware of that the next time You try to slow poach or sous vide an egg :)
Happy cooking everyone :3
Good info. thanks for the tips
Thanks for good information! Please make more videos with Thomas Joseph :)
I bought one of those power bars with a temperature probe often used to control temperatures for pet reptiles. It effectively turns the slow cooker into a sous vide cooker. Of course the problem is no recipe guide from the manufacturer, I have to google for how to cook with it. The slow cooker now functions as a yogurt maker as well.
I was on the fence about purchasing one ...not anymore. heading out tomorrow !!! i knew that steak was great done this way , it was that beautiful poached egg that did it for me. Great video !!
So how'd that go?
Thanks....... looks fun!
Thanks for the video I didn't know what Sous Vide meant and I keep seeing the devices offered for sale in my feed and I was so curious. So thank you. :)
I once made eggs like this by total accident, the yolk was that translcucent creamy texture, unforgettable. At least now I know it can be done again.
Thank you for this. I’ve heard about it but didn’t really understand what it was
my ignorance ..didnt really like the steak .did it on a freestanding induction eye and a thrmometer 9ice and hot water to tweak . yeah i did ten filets without the fuuss and mayhem of the grill . asked them not to get me a real unit for xmas . they did .well finally im doing a bunch OF HOME CORNED BRISKET. PERFECT DEVICE FOR HOW I WANT TO DO THEM. gonna learn how to use properly . for a good RARE steak checkout alton browm cooking directover a charcoal chimney starter . i just dont set it over the meat first two flips 9not hot enough and ashes drop ))s o i just cook ontop when charcoals going with a small gril on top of it 800 to 1500degrees . talk about ruth chriwith charcoal flavor . one t bone two rib eyes or three filets at once . and itcooks so fast you could load it twice in 6 minutes . 1 minuteand a half to 2or3 perside depending on thickness . use tongs and seasredges too .. theres a video .pittsburg baby
That was brilliant thank you.
Nice and Great cooking methode… thank for share
With the Anova, you can put your "sealed protein" in a good vessel, fill it with ice, top with water, leave it all day and then remotely start the cooking when you leave work. (Works with frozen steaks too!) For poached or boiled eggs, do the same and set it up before bed, hit the app when you wake, take a shower, get ready for work, and then it will be ready by the time you want to eat and go or take it with you and go. With the wifi enabled Anova, it is like having a crockpot and a sous vide all in one.
Or you can take the steak out of fridge when you come from work, let it rise to room temperature while taking shower. Then heat the pan for 3 min, cook the steak for 4 min. Here's your dinner without the effort previous day.
Let me add a little bit of olive oil...
Wow! That's like a cup of oil!
And a little bit of butter!
Thought I was the only one that noticed lol
what is the purpose of the oil in the sous vide
Then you havent seen the danish chef She used half the bottle ._.
@@antoniorenteria2896 My understanding is (due to this video and others) that the olive oil helps with both preventing the bag from sticking to the food, and assisting in transmission of heat directly to the food in case of air bubbles.
Useful! Thanks!
Thomas, you rock!
And all the PBA and plastic is really great for you and the environment!
IronTom that’s what I am thinking too, can we use other stuff except plastic bags?
@@milliechang6755 Exactly, like reusable bags that u just have to wash clean.
I just found out about "sous vide" while shopping for reusable silicone zip-lock style bags on Amazon!! No plastic!!
What can I call it? A new slow cooker! I bought the product and I love it because you can control the temperature to your liking of how much time you want to cook your food. And it’s essential for traveling with it. You can cook your food in your hotel if you don’t feel like leaving your hotel room to go and dine out.
Nice video... I’m going to go buy one!
Thomas, quick question....I just purchased the Anova Sous Vide unit. Do you put the meat into the water and then preheat to the said temp or let the water come up to the said temp and them start the timer?
I cooked salmon sous vide last night - it was my first attempt at sous vide since I got a device for my birthday. I cooked it at 133F for about an hour, 1" thick filets, and it was absolutely disastrous. I read a chart that said that that time would yield "firm flaky flesh" but it was very underdone. So, i'll have to keep experimenting I guess.
Nick Rossi my cooking side recommends placing salmon in refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up. Then cook at 130 for 30-45 minutes.
At least it wasn't overdone...so you could place it in a hot pan and give it a nice crust! Never used a sous vide but I watch a chef use that technique on steaks and they turn out very nice. Good luck sous vide'ing!
No smell when decarbing weed, I’m sold
Making my 10 pound Prime Rib roast right now....Thanks for the tips!
Great video!
Seems like a really expensive version of water immersion heating coil that students use in hostel.
It's not that expensive, though those water immersion heating coils can be plugged into a $30 temperature controller to do sous vide cooking, with something to help circulation like a $10 aquarium air pump.
10 years ago, an immersion circulator used to cost $1000 so poorer home cooks who wanted to cook sous vide would do use that, or connect it to a rice cooker for a version that costs less than $100. www.popsci.com/diy/article/2010-01/cooking-sous-vide-inexpensive-diy-way/
Nowadays, you can buy good immersion circulators for less than $100 anyways so its not worth it. It's about the same price or cheaper than almost any other thing in the kitchen (microwave, blender, pressure cooker, air fryer)
You forgot to mention one of the best things about the machine you're using! If you get the wifi-version, you have the ability to connect the machine to your phone through an app. This allows you to monitor the machine/cooking, change the temperature and add/adjust/remove the timer (you can time cooks to be alerted by the machine when they're done). This can all be done *remotely*- I've turned mine on from work before to have the bath preheat in time for me to drop my salmon filet in when I got home from work.
I have a similar setup to what is shown in this video. The Wi-Fi is very useful for working folk.
Use 1: Preheat water before coming home. I reuse the water dozens of times.... no need to toss it out. I have a lid that I cut a hole for the machine. After dozens of multi hour cooks, water has barely evaporated. It's VERY nice to get home, toss meat in, and 1+hrs later family can eat.
Use 2: Before leaving for work/away, put meat and ice in water. This will keep meat temp safe for hours. (longer if you sous vide in a little cooler like many people do). At some point in the day, remotely turn on machine to heat water to temp and cook meat. the meat is only in the "danger zone" for a short time, then will cook and pasteurize anyhow.
Just because you don't use wi-fi doesn't make it a gimmick.
Bluetooth I've tried using, but for me i don't get the point. Rarely do I ever adjust temp of water....and since I'm at home, I'd just rater adjust it on the device. I've also had disconnect issues with Bluetooth.

Great video thanks. Love the apron too.
I have cooked baby back ribs using sous vide few days ago and put in the fridge for 2 days. I plan to grill the ribs tomorrow, do I need to reheat the ribs or just leave the ribs out to room temperature before grilling? If need to reheat, at what temperature and for how long? Please help. TIA
Boil an egg for two hours? When do you get up to prepare your breakfast?
Imagine your energy bill just to cook an egg for 2 hrs. safety concerns says you should always be present. I have an instant pot and never have to be present while cooking. This is anti-eco friendly
Sous vide is great when your landlord is paying the utility bill.
Plug timer. I use it on my slow cooker all the time it might work with this.
Love these videos. I love the science behind cooking. Thank you
This is awesome this totally gets rid of the oven, unless you're making pastries.
Nicely done video.
I have concerns about the plastic bag. Had dinner out with friends at a restaurant and one friend had a very thick pork chop.We had a tiny bite to share and taste. The most tender pork I have ever eaten. I'd like th sous vide for that.
There are plastic bags high temp safe… this video, he used ziplock bags which are not safe to be used in this process… soooo he is clearly a paid actor not a chef… I’m shock they did not point out to use heat safe plastic. I have the vacuum sealer and the heat safe plastic from Amazon.
@@jenniferparker8449these ziplocks are okay to cook with. Most of the ziplock brand is BPA free made with polyethylene and microwave safe. If it’s microwave safe, you can boil it.
Do a spherification kitchen conundrum please
I first heard of this technique from master chef when Dino did a coffee caviar and when I did some research there's actually very little resources talking about it... Do it please
you can search about molecular gastronomy. this is youtube, you'd definitely stumble upon info on it.
yup just search all about molecular gastronomy whether on youtube or google, there's a "recipe" and techniques for it. also some tips for spherification if you wanna make a truly round not melting or blobby caviar or spheres, make the consistency of the solution thicker
Look up Chefsteps. They have a few spherification videos where they go through exactly pretty much everything from ingredients, amounts and techniques

Nothing like standing over the ole sous vide machine grilling steaks and drinking beer
hahahaha
hehehhee
Drinking cases of beer by the time it's done. Kids you want eggs? Give a minute or 120.
he absolutely destroyed the impression of cooking steak in sous vide for people who havent tried one.....but I am telling you guys it is a m a z i n g
i know what channel you are coming from

Thanks for the video. In addition to Ser Aaron's tip on how to get the air out of the bag, I would suggest to also sear the sides, esp. the fat strip. This renders the fat and the caramilization adds a lot of flavour.
Looks great if you want to spend your day cooking things very, very, very slooooooowly
Got and Anova Sous Vide for Christmas, and made 2 Porchettas, a 4 lb tenderloin, baby carrots, asparagus, for New Years Family feast... the results were amazing...
Ary Calvo Well finally some positive stuff. This person used his/her grey matter, read all they could on the topic, watched many videos including this one and voila...success!
Before searing the meat let it cool down a bit that minimizes the risk of changing the texture of the meat that it got in the sous vide process.
you can cook all your steaks at once and just store the uneaten ones in the fridge/freezer. When going to eat put in the water bath @120 for like a half hour to 45min to bring up to temperature, then sear to taste
1980: In 40 years we will have flying cars!
2020: We boil food in plastic bags and eat the next day!
Dont knock it til you try it! I threw a couple cheap steaks in the other day while my husband was at work.. when he got home, he seared them and they were ready & amazing in 1 min. My husband said they tasted like prime rib!
@@Monilynn17 So what do you do with your steaks after they're done cooking in the water? Do you freeze them or store them in ice cold water, until later? Just curious on the process. I guess the reason im knocking it is because the time it takes to prepare and cook it. I cook a lot and im usually using 2-3 pans at the same time and im finished in less than an hour. 2-3 hours will be tough. Do you use regular ziplock bags or vacuum sealed bags?

dumbest gimmick EVER!😞
Sad how gullible & naive people who need something to waste $$$$ on are 😒

I liked his intro to sous vide. A lot.
I ain’t got 45 min to cook eggs LOL
How much time do you have to meal prep a dozen eggs on a Sunday, and have them completed and perfectly cooked for the rest of the week?
@@shmorpiem6323 5 minutes in the instant pot
@@burntorange9394I realize you're right. I'm certainly not arguing with you. Is it possible that you're right, for your needs, and someone else can use this for their needs, as well?
@@burntorange9394 Instant pot is for sissies...(hahaha!)
Yeah--a pan on the stove works nicely.
Is there any concern about the leaching of chemicals from the plastic into the food? I can't really see any way around that.
U need to buy the freezer type zip lock bag if u want to do the cheaper option or get the vacuum sealing bags. They dont have that plastic chemical thatll contaminate ur food. The channel sousvide everything is rly extensive of testing what works and some tips aswell
That's a great question.
THIS. I was scrolling to find this exact comment. The convenience seems great but you effectively infuse your food with bisphenols and plastic ...
Earl of Lemongrab no, ive already answeres this in the exact comment. The vaccum seal bags and freezer bags dont melt/or leak any chemical into ur food
Fabulous...
Great😊
It would be great to have a side by side with and without souls vide to see the difference of results.
without sous vide it is all up to the cook, a good chef can cook your steak the same, but 99% of the people are just guessing when it is ready, with sous vide it is always spot on . The only thing you have to learn, is how long something has to be in the water. but there are guides for that online. always check 2 or 3 different ones, because they all say different temps and times
You don't need to go that high for chicken breast. 140 is fine if you like it very very tender, and totally safe provided you go for about two hours or more from fresh.
yeah i have to go llow on my steak to get my crust right on the sear . but what i saw in comment on chilling before sesaring will help . and dd to juiciness and flavor
My digital pressure cooker has a sous vide setting but I've never been sure which type of ziplock bags to use. None have temperature guides on the bags themselves, it is safe to assume any strong name-brand plastic bag will work? I keep imagining the bag melting into my food 😅 that's the one thing that's been stopping me but there's so many recipes I'd love to try. Also, do you always leave the water uncovered??
So with this method are you setting the device to the internal temp that you want your meat to finish at and then basically doing it for an hour per inch of thickness?
I don't consider myself a master chef but the Sous Vide method seems almost like an alternative to a busy kitchen, so you don't have to keep a close eye on the many dishes a restaurant serves all the time. almost like a food babysitter. A rice cooker cooks your rice in 45 minute where as traditionally most rices might cook in 20 to 25 minute. The rice cooker being the nice babysitter it is, will make sure to not only cook your rice but will make sure it doesn't scorch and will shut itself off. Now the onlt question I would have is the vacuum cooking, how much more flavor does it really infuse on the food compared to traditional cooking methods
Thank you! I have been wondering about how this cooking technology works. Very interesting for sure. But I’ll stick with my crock pot, Instant Pot, or the old school way of cooking. I don’t want to cook with plastic. 🙂
that is why you use foodgrade plastics, vaccuum bags are even better than those ziplocks. nothing will come off your plastics into your food. And those bags are re-usable
Excellent bro
Can this be used to cook pre-prepped frozen meals?
i work in a sous vide based resteraunt and you definetly dont need oil in your bag, it wont stick
Really with as long as that takes? I'm surprised by that. The restaurant gonna have to charge the customers rent for a table.
I think he screwed up the steak and over cooked it
Yes, the skillet seems to be to hot for the steak to stay on it for more than a minute. Perhaps if he had added the butter before the steak it would have cooled the skillet down enough to save him, but he didn't.
He mudrered that meat
"It should be nice and rosy...er...well done, this is a medium steak...". Lol
It looks like it was boiled then burned in a pan
haha i was thinking it to XD i normaly do it on 52.5C and then just burn it in butter for like 30 sec and then its on 56C XD
What type of bags do you use, can they be regular zip tie bags and what about the air? I have seen many videos where they are using machine to get the air out and really make compact package without air, so my question is that if I purchase sous vide device can I be okay with the regular zip tie bags or do I need to purchase such a machine.
this guy is really eloquent, each word is precise
