Sous-vide cooking gives many advantages to the commercial kitchen. The sous-vide cooking
method cooks food under a vacuum, which contributes to the preservation of the product.
Made with expertise, the Metos sous-vide machines are produced from brushed stainless
steel for easy cleaning. The user-friendly touch-screen display serves all the functions of the
machine.
How does sous-vide work?
Sous-vide cooking consists of cooking a vacuum-packed product. The food is prepared and
vacuum-packed. Then the product is cooked in a water bath until the desired temperature is
reached. Meat that requires a crust must be fried or baked after the sous-vide cooking.
Benefits
Even though the sous-vide cooking method was developed in a lab there is nothing artificial
about food cooked in a sous-vide. Products, prepared in vacuum-packs, have longer shelf
lives and the cooking bags retain aroma and overall quality of the food offering a full taste
experience. In addition, sous-vide cooking ensures maximum tenderness in all meat cuts.
Benefits in the kitchen
In commercial kitchens the sous-vide is essential in achieving unique operational profits.
Thanks to the sous-vide cooking method, which makes bulk production possible, it is a staff
reducing production method. The products’ prolonged shelf life provides an opportunity to
separate the preparation and serving of food, offering great flexibility in production
planning. Thanks to the airtight packaging no contamination will occur when handling the
products.
