The SousVide method pasteurises the food at exact temperatures, to preserve your food. After pasteurising, cool down the bag in ice water and store it in the fridge at less than 7°C, freeze or eat immediately. Pasteurisation takes place at a core temperature of about 62°C. The recommended cook temperatures for food are between 55°C and 65°C. There is a tolerance of plus 1°C if temperatures are set till 65°C, and plus 2 to 3°C by temperature over 70°C. This tolerance needs to be taken into consideration while temperatures are set (e.g. set 72°C if 75°C are desired).
Only use bags which are suitable for vacuum packing. There is no guarantee of proper closure if normal bags are used.
The cooking time depends on the thickness of the food. Times can also vary due to the quantity and consistency of the food. The following time settings are only guidelines and can be adapted to your taste. Double the time for tough meat and extend the time by at least 20% for deep-frozen food.
The temperatures listed in the tables must not be exceeded!
