Ah, I still remember in your early KZbin days when your vacuum machine was you sucking out air from the plastic bags using a straw, and the sous-vide machine was a beer cooler with a water bath of slightly too high temperature to compensate for the slight drop in temperature over time. It's been a pleasure following you for all these years, and I'm looking forward to many more! :)

[@davidali2117]

So... What I'm hearing, is to get the best croissant you have to Sous Vide the dough.

[@necronomicon1472]

That idea might not be as stupid as you think! With a Sous Vide machine you could bring the dough up to the ideal proofing temperature.

[@recoil53]

Only if you use a good VPN service.

[@supergeek1418]

@reimu No it won't. There's plenty of room for expansion in a vacuum sealed bag. Even if vacuum sealing *couldn't* be used, the water displacement method would work just fine. If might even be an interesting experiment: use the water displacement method to sous vide some assembled croissants at around 98C, then (once they're done) broil, or bake in a really hot oven to create the crust. I've made sous vide cake (in lightly sealed 1/2 pint mason jars) and it turned out great. Who knows? It may be a quantum leap forward in croissant science.

[@terrorfex1611]

Patting the exterior relatively dry after removal from the Sous Vide will help you get a really amazing sear much faster and having less gray gradiation in the meat. Also try using really high quality dried herbs instead of fresh in the Sous Vide. Sounds ocunter productive, but it seriously works.

[@maskedpotatoes]

Alex, sous vide is great to cook tenderloin, but that's already a pretty juicy and tender cut of meat. You have to try with cuts that are considered "tough": they are more flavorful, and cooking them sous vide for a long time allow them to get as tender as a filet mignon, while having a more robust meat flavor. Try with brisket and the shoulder, they are great; the belly also!

[@hl321662]

You should also consider reverse searing, which is cooking a steak through in a low temp oven with the door open then sear it in a hot pan. It works similarly to sous vide but can produce better crust easier since the outside of the steak is dried out of the oven compared to wet in the case of sous vide. The downside of reverse searing is that a meat probe is required since the oven temp can't be controlled as precisely as a sous vide machine.

[@EggMan1988]

As many others have pointed out, dry the steak of before searing it. Also leave it on the counter for about 10 minutes or so before searing it, it helps by lowering the temperature of the steak before you sear it so that you don't "overcook" it in the pan.

[@indiolush]

Did you mean "raising the temp" instead of lowering it?

[@EggMan1988]

@@indiolush No, straight out of the water the steak is at the target temperature. By putting it straight on the pan your raising the temperature over the target. If you leave it to rest for some time (depending on the size of the cut) you will have time to get a proper sear without overcooking the steak.

[@Haenki]

I love my sous-vide machine. I've got 2 tips. it looked like the steak was still quite wet when you put it in the pan, to get a perfect sear you need to dry it off properly with paper towels. 2nd thing, 54deg is the perfect temp but when I cook an entrecote for example which tends to be thinner than a filet I cook it at 52-53deg depending on thickness which leaves me a bit more time to sear it in the pan.

Looked a bit wet going into the pan, he must have forgot that important step!

[@strangelyrepulsive77]

i was about to mention tha; this steak is far from perfect.

[@danytostudios]

I think he didn't

[@TheOriginalBagelstein]

He did not, I noticed that immediately.

[@lutze5086]

he DIDNT AND he salted it BEFORE sous vide -ing it. i get the feeling thats not best practice sous - vide, dry, then salt, then sear. please correct me if im wrong

[@androkon6920]

Why though ? did not get the connection, did he invent the sous vide cooking for meat ?

[@SharkyMoto]

sous vide is the way to go. it really changed my perception of eating meat. whenever i made a steak in the pan it was kind of a guessing game if its how i like it and i find it extremely hard to get right, let alone consistent. with the sous-vide thing, its easy, you cant do it wrong and it tastes so much better. also the sous vide is perfect for vegetables, especially esparagus, you have to give it a try since its the season now :)

[@tanikokishimoto1604]

I need to try it with asparagus!
