  • You guys asked and I deliver! I put the SALT BEFORE or SALT AFTER SOUS VIDE to the test! For this experiment I used prime sirloin steak. Yes I wanted to use picanha but to change it up a little I used Prime USDA Sirloin Steak. On this experiment I answer this very controversial question. Should you season your steak before or after sous vide? I even went further doing a 3rd experiment! Which is season the steak after searing.
    The experiment is as follow, every steak is exactly the same. It has the same good old stuff which is salt, pepper, onion, garlic and organic thyme. The only difference is the timing for the salt and pepper was applied. I am please to let you know that all 3 of us had the same conclusion on which one is best! I know some folks might not agree but for this test this was the result we had. I hope you enjoy the video as I when the extra mile on this one to make it entertaining for you to watch. Thank you so much for watching and your support is very much appreciated!
    HOW I COOKED THESE SIRLOIN PRIME STEAKS SOUS VIDE
    These steaks were cooked at (135°F) (57.2°C)

  • @chrisr4488
    @chrisr4488 7 років тому

    I think you guys could expand on this & the restaurant test
    1. Salt before cooking
    2. Salt, bag, refrig overnight, then cook
    3. Salt, bag, freeze, then cook from frozen state
    I do #3 quite often with large packs of meat, I always wondered if it worked against me. Thanks for the videos!

  • @stephenjames820
    @stephenjames820 5 років тому +1

    I have always been wary of the amount of salt you season steaks with. I did a similar experiment with one steak sous vide and another the normal way I grill a steak. Steak 1 I seasoned and left out on the counter to come up to room temp for 3 hours and Steak 2 I seasoned the same way and quantity and sous vide it for 1.5 hours at 130F. I get my grill really hot and seared off both steaks. The sous vide steak was more tender but not as tasty (seasoning wise) as steak 1. So while I may question the amount of seasoning you use I believe you need to because the meat loses the seasoning effect in the sous vide process! Always love your videos! Thanks guys!!

    I've been cooking Sous Vide for a few years now and this channel has changed how I've been cooking. I have started adding herbs and seasoning before the cook, it makes a hell of a difference. Thanks guys keep up the videos....p.s. I have the Anova Culinary Bluetooth Sous Vide Precision Cooker, 800 Watts, Black from amazon and it works amazing, it looks like is even on sale right now for $109 prime case anyone is looking to buy their first sous vide machine.

    • @SousVideEverything
      @SousVideEverything  7 років тому +61

      yes I will be doing that soon, but in the office I can't use cast iron. I believe cast iron produces a better crust but have not tested side by side and I will do that soon. 👍👍👍

      WaffleNova you have to specifically ask for that cut at your local butcher with he fat on. in the USA the cuts of meat from the cow butchery are not as segmented. Brazil has much more segmentation of the cow on their end so here you really need a butcher shop.

      @user-lk7dn7yi2m 7 років тому

      Can you add asafoetida to this test? I've stopped using fresh garlic in the bag after a Culinary Institute of America chef recommended it as a garlic replacement. Fresh garlic gives a slightly bitter taste when used during the sous vide process and asafoetida is the perfect subsitute for those looking for a garlic flavor.

  • @johnbowen5336
    @johnbowen5336 7 років тому +1

    Well, yes. Anyone who understands the basics of charcuterie could have told you as much. Kenji over at Serious Eats has written quite a bit about about "dry brining" and the effects it has on meat, such as greater moisture retention during cooking.

  • @WhatsInAName222
    @WhatsInAName222 7 років тому

    Terrific video. I've been torn between salting before or after. So here's how I decide: if the piece of beef is already vacuum sealed from the store, I don't bother seasoning it before cooking it. If it's open, I season. Grass fed beef is expensive as heck but it usually comes vacuum sealed so I just pop it in the tub and cook it, then season and finish with butter on a very hot cast iron pan. Searing is done on the deck otherwise my wife will throw me out of the house 😀. I'm not as much of a connoisseur as you guys so I'm happy either ways. Thanks for doing the comparison.

      Think about it, if I used coarse sat on the others it would just fall out. It does not dissolve. 👍👍👍

    • @TheBauwssss
      @TheBauwssss 7 років тому +49

      True, but for the sake of science and consistency you should have used the same salt for all three and measured the amounts :) Real unrefined course rock salt or sea salt tastes so different from (what we in the Netherlands) use as table salt (which is 100% pure refined NaCl with added iodine). What types of salt did you use in the video?
      Also: great video! I remember watching these when you were still small channel. The quality has improved by a huge amount!

    • @nhayes481
      @nhayes481 7 років тому +4

      Fine grain salt is just gonna be stronger than coarse grain anyway. Using coarse grain salt would not have changed anything in this situation.

    • @samha75utube
      @samha75utube 7 років тому +8

      It would have been so awesome if you added the same amount of salt, such as a certain weight percent of the meat...

    • @St3amM4chine
      @St3amM4chine 7 років тому +5

      c'mon guys, his tests are very consistent. it would be more inconsistent if he used coarse salt on b and c. and i trust that he used the same type of salt, just with a fine grain to it. don't deal with him like he is trying to precreate the outcome. if you see the video with the butter you will understand that he shows his mistakes in his opinions. also it is just cooking, you apply some principles of physics, but let us not make this whole proccess a laboratory experiment.

  • @Tabfren
    @Tabfren 7 років тому

    I always pre-season before sous vide, and i even put a little pat of butter in the bag, like a tablespoon, it will turn even the cheapest junk steak into something amazing.

  • @LeoOrtega144
    @LeoOrtega144 7 років тому

    I think pre-seasoning with salt is always better. Salt is the only seasoning that will penetrate the meat to any depth. I season mine the day before with salt and leave it uncovered in the cooler, the salt will pull the juices into the meat and enhance the flavor of the meat.

  • @kellysatterfield5759
    @kellysatterfield5759 7 років тому

  • @BotoInYoMouth
    @BotoInYoMouth 7 років тому +2

    Ive done a few experiments: All done at 129 degree Fahrenheit. With RIB EYES
    1. Butter vs no butter- seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic salt. cast iron skillet. w/ olive oil
    2. raw onion/garlic vs sauteed onion/garlic then into sous vide - seasoned, S/P/GS one had either both raw onion/ garlic, other has sauteed onion and garlic.
    3. season before vs season after- seasoned S/P/GS. raw onion, raw garlic. both sauteed juices with onions and garlic and poured on top final product.
    4. cast iron skillet vs searzall
    My Results. (atleast 3 people each)
    1. W/ butter it gave the melt in your mouth feeling,
    W/O butter felt like a regular seasoned steak.
    2. Raw onion/ raw garlic had less of an onion and garlic flavor, but the onion and garlic were still useful after going into the bath. used both with the juices to sauteed with butter and olive oil to have on the side.
    Sauteed before, had more flavor. but when it came out thew onions were very mushy and i threw them out. and kept the garlic
    3. same results as you people preferred preseason before going into bath.
    4. I just received my searzall maybe less than a week ago, and im still learning how to use it. so far, I prefer using cast iron skillet because you can have it seared with olive oil and butter.

    Great vid, I like the different experiments you did. Like the new music selection but am also happy you didn't change the searing music. NEVER CHANGE THE SEARING MUSIC!!!
    Also, I have the Sous Vide Supreme, and while the all-in-one aspect is great I kind of envy the versatility of a water circulator like a Jules. With the SVS, the capacity is the capacity, and that can limit how much you can cook at once. With the other circulators you can attach them to bigger containers.

    Great video! I was just telling my Mom about this channel yesterday when she gave me a new Sous Vide cookbook. I got an Anova for Christmas, and while my Mom isn't interested in trying out this cooking technique herself, she has helped me get the proper equipment to make things easier for me. I have a few disabilities - one of the biggest issues being an intolerance for heat - and my Mom loves that I can use this method of cooking and it does not exacerbate my symptoms. You need to try making corn on the cob - my boyfriend said he's never had better (and so did my family)!

  • @CliffordKintanar
    @CliffordKintanar 7 років тому

    My personal preference is to season before sous vide cooking, then season again just before searing, and it's perfect. If I make a sauce out of the bag juices, then i don't have to do the second seasoning, but the double seasoning works the best for me.

    • @SousVideEverything
      @SousVideEverything  7 років тому

      I am in agreement with you, I have not tried double seasoning as it was not needed but you are doing it the best way in my opinion.

  • @cuttingtooldesigner
    @cuttingtooldesigner 7 років тому

    Pre-salting and seasoning will penetrate the meat, like brining, as long as you let it rest like you did. It will also hold more of the natural juice's in. Great video, very informative. Keep up the grate videos.

  • @invisiblekid99
    @invisiblekid99 5 років тому

    For me I season after. If I'm slicing the meat a sprinkle of flake salt while resting then a few flakes on a slice is awesome. It also means people can salt to their preference. I also like the way salt tastes like this. Also salting after SV and then "burning" the steak is never going to work.

  • @gabrielsteiger5465
    @gabrielsteiger5465 7 років тому

    salt and pepper are one thing, kind of required for any steak. what about garlic powder, onion powder, etc? some people dont want that on their steak so it would easy to prepare for a group of people and just reheat each persons preference like you explored in another video knowing how other seasons worked out

    The optical difference on pre-salting should be the protein of the beaf which is drawn to the outside because of the salt.
    It would be interesting, if the meat consistency or the maillard reaction is different.

    Adam Savage did a test and they concluded searing over hot coals still in the chimney (not in the grill) was the best. Granted, when you're talking sous vide, the worst is still great. But I've tried it and it was ACE.

    You need to do a test with salt. From experience flaked or sea salt has much better flavour than conventional table salt. Maldon normal or lack smoked salt is my current favourite. Great video guys. 👍

    As I understand it you always have to salt meat a long time before cooking to retain moisture. It has something to do with the protein structure changing. Like if you make a chicken in the oven you have to rub it with salt the day before so it's juicer after cooking - when you heat the proteins, the fibres squeeze the water out but if you salt in advance the proteins don't get as 'tight'. So then breast meat isn't as dry even thought you overcook it to get thigh meat to the safely cooked temperature

    My guess as to why the pre-seasoned steak is juicier is that once the salt penetrates the meat 2 things happen. 1) Because the meat has more salt, osmosis helps it keep some of the moisture. 2) the salt helps dissolve some of the muscle proteins into the juices, preventing the muscle fibers from contracting as much.

    • @SousVideEverything
      @SousVideEverything  7 років тому

      pre-seasoned is not juicier, check out the video I made for prime rib and rack of lamb.

    • @cocci852
      @cocci852 7 років тому

      I just checked out those videos, but for both they were pre-seasoned? The tested difference was pre-SEARed vs post -seared.
      Which, by the way, with my own tests with sous vide I agree that presearing is not as good as post-searing.

  • @hvtran5o4
    @hvtran5o4 7 років тому

    on my steaks, I pre-season SV and season before searing it. I find that when I use a towel to damp dry the steaks, a lot of the leftover residue salt gets taken away (I use coarse salt) and re-seasoning them gives them an even bigger kick. just don't go overkill on it, but gives it a better flavor IMO

  • @DasGrinch
    @DasGrinch 7 років тому

    I always double salt things. I salt after sous vide but before searing, using a kosher salt, and then after it's seared I'll use a big flake salt like Maldon. You used the coarse salt for steak a, and then the fine salt for b and c, and I think that might have thrown off your results a little too. If you re-do this test in the future make sure you weigh your salt, so each steak has an identical ratio of salt:steak. Otherwise, excellent video, can't wait to see your comparisons.
    Oh, and for 12 bucks just get a Ikea VARIERA pot lid organizer. Stainless steel, accordion-style, easy to adjust it based on your container and your steaks. If you put it upside down it also acts as a weight.

    Btw, salt absolutely removes liquid from the meat (there is no debating this, it's basic osmosis). The meat will be slightly less moist, but it's worth it for the meat to be properly seasoned.

  • @INSIGHTSAU

    I always brine my steak (mostly picanha, or what we call "rump cap" these days, thanks to this channel). I'd love to see a comparison between equilibrium brining overnight and adding an equivalent amount of dry salt to the steak. I suspect there will only be a difference if the dry-salted meat isn't allowed to rest in the bag (i.e. "brine") before cooking.

    • @SousVideEverything

    Hi Guys, first thanks for the awsome work
    Can you make at Test with tougher cuts of beef like ribs and brisket? Some say you should NOT SALT if you cook it for 12-24 hours since it would dry out the meat and act as curing if you would salt it.

    Something I think you should put to test is raw crushed garlic and onion vs roasting them. I believe that they are gonna release a lot more flavor if you roast them first, specially the garlic.

    • @SousVideEverything

      +Jarejander69 yep I have that in my books and I will be testing it soon. The roasted never thought about it. But now its in my books.

  • @guipovill
    @guipovill 7 років тому

    Meus caros, se me permitirem, vou dar a minha humilde opinião. Na primeira carne vocês utilizaram sal grosso e nas outras duas, sal refinado ou moído. A utilização de sal grosso faz toda a diferença. Por fim, acredito no resultado final do experimento, como se trata de sous vide, temperar a carne antes do procedimento é sempre melhor. Tente colocar um pouco de azeite ao invés de manteiga, fica muito bom tambem. :)
    Aproveito para parabenizá-los, o canal é excelente, ninguém tem um conteúdo igual ao de vocês. Parabéns!!!

    I really enjoy your videos. But when you're doing these kinds of technique comparisons, I think it's important to keep everything except the thing you're testing as similar as possible. For example, in this video, the type and amount of salt should have been identical across all the steaks. The time of application should have been the only thing you changed. But still entertaining. I'll keep watching, thanks!

    • @SousVideEverything
      @SousVideEverything  7 років тому +1

      Think about it, if I used coarse salt for steaks B and C it will just fall out and nothing would penetrate. The fine salt did not penetrate but at least it stock to the meat. I appreciate you ongoing support and thank you so much for watching. Hope you liked the video...👍👍👍

    • @TheSleepyDad
      @TheSleepyDad 7 років тому +2

      Sous Vide Everything I think you can find a salt that will stick under all three conditions, like Morton kosher salt, or even the fine salt. Then you will be isolating the test variable as the only difference between the three steaks. All the best!
