Crème Brûlée is an exquisite dessert, marrying a velvety custard with a crisp caramelized sugar crust.

With the Sous Vide method, making this luxurious treat has never been easier!

Is Sous Vide Crème Brûlée a thing?

According to Anova Culinary, it most certainly is!

“Creme brûlée is the perfect dessert for sous vide cooking. The temperature is always precise and there is no wrangling a full water bath in and out of the oven. You simply CANNOT overcook it! You can make as many portions as you can fit screw-top mason jars in your cooking vessel with water still circulating around them. You can make it five days in advance and literally stack your jars in the fridge, not having to worry about entire trays of ramekins being perfectly covered and taking up entire shelves.”

Here’s a quick Sous Vide refresher:

Sous Vide is a method of cooking foods in a water bath at a precisely controlled (lower) temperature for an extended period time. The results speak for themselves. You won’t ever worry about overcooking an expensive cut of meat, it will come out perfectly tender and juicy, based on the temperature YOU select, every single time. So far, I notice also that using the sous vide method leaves me time to do other things, as it’s a matter of placing your food in a reusable or zip top bag and into    the water, pressing START and it does its thing.

Believe me, this is the EASIEST way I’ve ever made this recipe, and once you try it, you won’t go back to the traditional method.

For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Multi Cooker:

Our pressure cooker offers so many ways to get a delicious meal on the table with minimal effort and perfect results, every time. In addition to quick cooking—fast, flavorful meals cooked up to 70% faster than other methods even from frozen—and no-fuss slow cooking so it does it thing while you’re doing yours, you can sous vide, the secret to restaurant-quality steaks, fish, and more. With sous vide, you pick the temperature, and it cooks to the exact doneness you love, every time! No more undercooked centers and overcooked outsides. After your food reaches its perfect doneness, it can stay put for up to two hours without overcooking, giving you lots of wiggle room for serving. Plus, there is a yogurt function so you can make homemade yogurt with just two ingredients and less than 5 minutes of hands-on time, and you can even sterilize bottles and utensils. All of this without ever turning on the oven!

Sous Vide Salmon (Video)

Buttery, flaky, and irresistibly moist, this Sous Vide Salmon is created with this easy hands-off method of cooking that delivers a flavor-filled dinner every time!

Here’s a quick Sous Vide refresher:

Sous Vide is a method of cooking foods in a water bath at a precisely controlled (lower) temperature for an extended period time. The results speak for themselves. You won’t ever worry about overcooking an expensive cut of meat, it will come out perfectly tender and juicy, based on the temperature YOU select, every single time. So far, I notice also that using the sous vide method leaves me time to do other things, as it’s a matter of placing your food in a reusable or zip top bag and into    the water, pressing START and it does its thing.

To Brine or Not to Brine?

Drying brining salmon with salt before sous vide cooking serves several important purposes:

  1. Flavor Enhancement: The salt in the dry brine enhances the natural flavors of the salmon. It not only adds a savory taste but also helps accentuate the inherent richness of the fish.
  2. Texture Improvement: Dry brining aids in modifying the texture of the salmon. It works to firm up the flesh slightly, giving it a more appealing texture when cooked sous vide. This ensures that the salmon maintains its structure while still achieving the desired level of tenderness.
  3. Moisture Retention: While it may seem counterintuitive, dry brining helps the salmon retain moisture during the sous vide process. The salt draws out excess moisture initially, but then it gets reabsorbed, along with the seasoned flavors, resulting in a juicier and more succulent final product.
  4. Consistent Seasoning: Dry brining provides a more even distribution of salt across the salmon. This ensures that each bite is consistently seasoned, preventing pockets of blandness or excessive saltiness in different parts of the fish.
  5. Improved Sous Vide Precision: Removing excess moisture from the surface of the salmon through dry brining contributes to more effective sous vide cooking. With less surface moisture, the sous vide process can more efficiently transfer heat to the salmon, promoting a precise and uniform cooking experience.
  6. Enhanced Sous Vide Bag Seal: The surface dryness achieved through dry brining facilitates a better seal when placing the salmon in the sous vide bag. This is crucial for an airtight seal, preventing water from entering the bag and compromising the sous vide cooking process.

Sous Vide and Seafood

The sous vide method of cooking is a fantastic way to preserve the texture and flavor of your seafood, without ever overcooking.  It is also one of the most nutritious methods of cooking, since we are using a lower temperature, we will be retaining more nutrients.  Also, it’s just so darn easy, you should give it a try. 

For this recipe, I used my Deluxe Multi Cooker and Large Reusable Storage Bag:

Sous Vide Steak

My husband loves his steak to be very well done, while I love a medium rare steak. How about you?   Either way you like it, when you try making a steak sous vide style it will come out perfectly! I’m still learning all about sous vide, if you’d like to see some tips that I shared in another post, click here.

This was the absolute best steak that I have ever had in my entire life! It’s very hands off, and the result is simply perfection it’s juicy, and the most tender steak imaginable. 

I wanted to be very simple in what I added the first time I was making a steak, so the recipe itself is very simple. This process creates such precision with the temperature, that you won’t have to worry about over or under cooking your steak. 

If medium rare is not your thing, don’t worry you can sous vide your steak until it’s well done! To give any protein color after the sous vide process you simply sear it for a minute per side on the stove or under the broiler.

Here is a quick temperature reference for sous vide steak temperatures. 

  • RARE:                       120⁰-125⁰
  • MEDIUM RARE:      130⁰-135⁰
  • MEDIUM:                 140⁰-145⁰
  • MEDIUM WELL:      150⁰-155⁰
  • WELL:                       160⁰-165⁰

One thing to remember is that we are pan-searing the steak afterwards, so this will increase the temperature, even though you’re searing for a couple of minutes.  You’ll want to sous vide at about 5 degrees below the desired temperature, in addition to factoring in the pan-searing, which will increase the temperature a bit. As an example, I like my steak medium-rare.  When I made this steak, I set the temperature for 130⁰, which is rare. Once I sear the steak, the temperature jumps up to 135⁰, medium-rare. 

This was the absolute best steak that I have ever had in my entire life! It’s very hands off, and the result is simply perfection it’s juicy, and the most tender steak imaginable. The recipe itself is very simple, when combined with the sous vide process creates such precision with the temperature, that you won’t have to worry about over or under cooking your steak. 

If medium rare is not your thing, don’t worry you can sous vide your steak until it’s well done! To give any protein color after the sous vide process you simply sear it for a minute per side on the stove or under the broiler. It’s so easy I can’t wait to share this with you, so let’s jump right in!

  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

Fill the inner pot of the Multi-Cooker to the ½ fill line with water.  Lock the lid and select SOUS VIDE; set temperature to 130⁰, set timer for 2-4 hours*. I set mine for 3 hours. 

*A note about the time: The steak WILL be done at the two-hour mark, absolutely.  However, the wonderful thing is that you can leave it in the sous vide for up to 4 hours, and not only will you have a more tender steak, but the temperature stays exactly the same! 

Season steaks with salt and pepper.  Place each steak in separate zip top bags with your herbs.  Close bag, removing any air.

When you hear three beeps and ADD is displayed, open lid and submerge bag with the seal above the water.  Lock the lid and press START. When the timer is up, press CANCEL. Carefully remove the bag.

Remove the steaks from the bags and pat them dry. Preheat a cast iron or other skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, then add the butter, heating until butter is foaming. Add the steaks and sear until they’re nicely browned, about 1 minute per side, basting steak in butter while searing for added flavor.

Slice and serve immediately; no need to rest the steak, it is perfectly cooked!  Please let me know if you give this a try, and also let me know how YOU like your steak!
