What is a sous vide oven?

A sous vide container is a heat-resistant container filled with water for sous vide cooking. You insert a sous vide stick , which keeps the water at the precise temperature you set, sometimes for hours. This way, your ingredients cook slowly and evenly, without the risk of overcooking or undercooking.

Unlike a regular pot, a sous vide container offers more space, better insulation, and greater stability. The water cools down less quickly, you need to refill it less often, and you can prepare multiple vacuum bags at once. A lid or thermal insulation balls retain heat even better and save energy.

The benefits of buying a sous vide container

Constant temperature

A good sous vide container keeps the water at the perfect temperature for hours. This means no fluctuations, no stress, and always an evenly cooked dish.

Applications in the kitchen

You've made your decision: you want to buy a sous vide unit. The possibilities in the kitchen seem endless! With a sous vide unit, you'll elevate your culinary skills. It's not only convenient but also a source of inspiration for countless recipes.

Think of a slow-cooked rack of lamb that develops a crispy crust and bursts with flavor after a quick barbecue . Or cod cooked so perfectly that it falls apart into shiny, juicy flakes, with fresh notes of lime and cilantro. Asparagus stays crisp and fragrant, while chocolate lava cakes, cooked in a water bath, retain their moist center yet are firm enough to serve beautifully.

A sous vide container is also ideal for meal prep. Prepare multiple portions at once, vacuum seal them, and freeze them. This way, you always have tasty, healthy meals at your fingertips, eliminating last-minute cooking stress.
