    Love your explanations, they are perfectly logical and complete for me.
    After watching this vid i feel confirmed: sous-vide is not worth all the effort and time. I bought such a device three years ago, used it a dozen of times, and was dissapointed. My reasons just were confirmed.
    Thank you, i discovered your channel yesterday, am loving it!

    I like the Ziploc trick. They're also considerably cheaper than Vacuum Bags.

    I do have a question: If I were to use my vacuum sealer to make, say, a heat and eat one-bag meal, like stew:
    I should boil the veggies separately, and sous vide the meat, and then, once all is cooled, combine them in the bags, seal, and freeze?

    Thank you so much. Now I don't want or need this tech. You saved me a couple of hundred bucks and encouraged me to work a little bit harder for a better product. I think this is for chefs, not cooks. ❤️❤️👍🙏

    Hi Helen, I'm a professional cook and also a culinary instructor. I LOVE your channel – you are excellent!! I have an important question with regards to Sous Vide cooking. I'm relatively inexperienced with Sous Vide but am looking into it's practicality (which brought me to your channel :-)) I was wondering if you could address concerns of FOOD SAFETY. It seems like a long time for food to be in the danger zone where bacteria grows. I understand that strict safe food handling must occur before the meat is placed in the freezer bag however there is not quite a vacuum in the bag and it basically does not leave the danger zone… Also, the meat is then cooled down and then slowly dragged through the danger zone to re-heat – seems dangerous. Can you put my mind at ease?

    Can't believe you are serious here 😄 .. Cooking sous vide makes use of the effect that water boils at a lower temperature in a vacuum. Cooking in a opened freezer bag is definitely not "Sous-Vide Like a Pro" – it isn't even sous vide at all! 🤣

    Thank you for your honesty about it not working like a slow cooker. I did see that marketing tactic on Home Shopping Network for the Curtis Stone immersion circulator. The woman marketing with him made that claim “go to work while your dinner cooks!” & he did not correct her. Stupid marketing strategy, bc 1) they come cross as dishonest to those who know the real deal & 2) people who try doing this will be unhappy and won’t recommend the product!
    Why can’t they just be honest? It’s still an awesome technology; they don’t have to lie!! I guess he doesn’t care about his reputation as a producer of kitchen products bc he makes enough money as a chef. Maybe he just needed some quick extra cash from product sales at the expense of unhappy customers. Lame. 🙄
