is achieved when we vacuum-seal each course, followed by sous vide cooking.
what is sous vide cooking…
“Sous vide” means “under vacuum” in French and refers to the process of vacuum-sealing food in a bag, then cooking it to a very precise temperature in a water bath. This technique produces results that are impossible to achieve through any other cooking method and has the added advantage of allowing you to serve food that is untouched by human hands after reaching temperature.
3 EASY WAYS TO RE-HEAT:
1) Simply reheat the vacuum-sealed portions by submerging them in a pot of hot water.
2) by using your own sous wand
3) you can open the bag, transfer contents to a Dutch oven or sauté pan and re-heat in the oven or on your stovetop.
All my Meal Kit menus are designed to be served family-style. I also include plating instructions in case you prefer present your meal plated, restaurant-style.
i have developed several menus that lend themselves well to vacuum bag packaging without comprising flavor or quality. the vacuum-sealed bag assures there are no bacteria, while making re-heating and serving effortless.
