Cooking vacuum-packed foods at low temperatures, a technique used
GB
for over 30 years by the most prestigious chefs, brings many advantages:
• culinary: flavours are concentrated and the taste, softness and tenderness
of the food are maintained;
• hygienic: provided that hygiene regulations are respected, this type of
cooking protects the food from the harmful effects of oxygen, thus ensuring
that the dishes may be stored for longer in the refrigerator;
• organisational: thanks to the longer storage period, dishes may be prepared
well in advance.
• diet-related: this type of cooking limits the amount of fatty substances used
and therefore means that the food is lighter and easier to digest;
• financial: the food shrinks less so there is more of the product left after it
has been cooked.
To use this technique, you must use a vacuum-packing machine and the
appropriate bags. Follow the instructions supplied relating to vacuum-packing
food carefully.The vacuum-packing technique may also be used for raw
products (fruit, vegetables, etc.) as well as pre-cooked products (traditional
cooking).
