>Devastated by the trauma of his macdonald's job only affording him a used microwave, the tortured brainlet used his last few molecules of lingering muscle to raise his puny, blubber-thick arm to the keyboard, and through the tears cascading from his eyes and streaming down his bulbous cheeks, he launched what he believed to be a savage attack on the sous vide chad, furiously asserting that anyone capable of properly equipping their kitchen is incapable of cooking food. Exhausted by the ordeal and wheezing with exhaustion, he slumped back down onto his diarrhoea-saturated mattress, gulped down his few remaining morsels of stolen, left-over macdonalds waste, closed his eyes and began reciting his comfort-mantra to drown out the torturous noise of laughing girls "Anyone with more money than me is inferior, I'm burger flipper of the month, I'll have my michelin stars soon". Comfortable in his ignorance and too weak to go on, he wiped the tears from his face, looked lovingly at his good boy points chart, thanked his mommy for letting him stay even though he was 47, and fell asleep, to dream of the day he too could be one of the big boys and be allowed into his mother's kitchen without protective gear and constant supervision.

Both of those methods *COOK the food. Yes, you can HEAT cooked food in the microwave oven. You can also put RAW food in the microwave oven, power it on to your desired settings and when you remove said food, it is now hot and the tissues have toughened, juices have released, and the food is no longer raw.

Furthermore, (and it has been touched upon in this thread) one who has already learned to cook, and may even be considered talented at it, has no reason not to use this relatively new method of cooking (yes, IT IS cooking). How you're likening sous vide and microwaves is beyond me.

Virtually all sous vide bags are made from these plastics, as are most brand-name food storage bags and plastic wraps such as Saran wrap.

Benefits of Using Ziploc Bags with Sous Vide
There are several advantages to using Ziploc bags instead of a FoodSaver-type sealer. The biggest advantage is the ability to seal liquids. Ziploc bags work with both solids and liquids, so you can easily use marinades and sauces while you cook.

Another thing I really like about using Ziploc bags is that they are easy to open and re-seal. Many foods like sirloin, brisket, and pork shoulder have a lot of variation in the toughness of the meat and need different lengths of cooking time to fully tenderize them. The problem is that amount of time needed can be hard to determine before actually cooking them.

With Ziplocs I can open the pouch after the minimum amount of cooking time has passed and check the tenderness. If it needs more tenderizing I just re-seal the bag and put it back in the sous vide machine for a few more hours. When it's tender enough, I'll pull it out and it's ready to serve whenever I want. It really helps prevent under- and over-cooking foods.

Opening and re-sealing the bags is also helpful if the food has given off some gas and is starting to float. This often happens during longer cooks and it can be a pain to try and weigh down the bags.

With Ziplocs, you can release the gas, re-seal the bag, and the food will easily stay below the water again.

Cost of Ziploc Bags with Sous Vide
Of course, Ziploc Freezer Bags are also cheaper than FoodSaver bags. You can get 30 one-gallon bags on Amazon for under $5, about 15 cents a bag. In comparison, 28 one-gallon FoodSaver bags runs about $22, about 5 times as much.

People raging about them just don't understand how much easier it makes sustaining a set temperature, slow cookers have hot spots and the temperature fluctuates. it's just taking a little more control over your end result, slow cooker might be fine for you at home, but for those worried about consistent product, it's worth getting the sous vide.

Sous vide looks anaemic by default. It just needs a butane torch (and maybe a very light brushing with milk powder) to the exterior to get that browned maillard deliciousness. You will not beat sous vide for texture or for flavour.

>> No.10125345

Correct. No matter how jealous you are, yes, sealing everything in a bag stops any loss of flavour unlike boiling/oven cooking/grilling, and cooking at a very low temperature stops any loss of moisture and flavour by way of cell walls breaking, as well as not causing the meat to constrict and become tough. The extreme heat to the exterior alone then causes the protiens and sugars to chemically react (maillard) and create a crunchy, meaty exterior without ruining the interior. Well done, you're learning! Maybe one day you'll get lucky and save enough of your allowance to try it for yourself, just like the cordon bleu chefs in France.

>> No.10125351

>>10125341
Real? Dunno what you're asking. There's no other method by which meats can be cooked this low and slow, without leeching out a shitload of flavours and moisture. If it's literally vacuum sealed, that tastiness is going nowhere.

We use butane torches where I work and have an open kitchen, and one (1) time a guy made a big fuss and asked the server if a butane torch was used on his dish, because he could "taste the butane".

We told the server to say no, even though he obviously saw us using the torch and was just being a douchbag. A butane torch leaves no butane flavor on the food, and is basically the same as throwing something under the broiler.

Want to give it another go, 48hours.

Also want to try smoking it. Live in an apartment so I'll diy some shit.

Is it worth smoking though? The ghetto way.
The point isn't the flavor, it's the long smoking sessions that works the meat deeply, right?
If this attempt works out I aim to do it for 10+ people, so smoking that amount will be troublesome with my small diy thing.
Will adding smoke flavor suffice?
