Sous Vide for Everybody is an approachable cookbook that demystifies sous vide cooking and demonstrates how it can make your life easier, while also giving you the tools to try exciting new dishes.
Originally from the French for "under vacuum" because it often involves sealing food in plastic, sous vide allows you to cook food gently in an automatic water bath to the perfect temperature. That may sound intimidating, but the technique has trickled down from experimental fine-dining restaurant kitchens to the home kitchen precisely because it's an easy, convenient, and hands-off way to cook. Sous vide not only makes traditional cooking easier and more foolproof, it often can help to make food taste better, taking away all the guesswork and giving you back some free time. In this cookbook, you will find recipes that teach you how to cook sous vide, starting with basics like the perfect steak or soft-cooked egg. You will also find recipes that expand your knowledge and creativity in the kitchen using sous vide, from a holiday-worthy chuck roast that tastes like a prime rib at a fraction of the cost to eggs Benedict to fruit-on-the-bottom yogurt cups.

Title: YES to Ice Cream en Sous Vide!!
Review: I actually bought another sous vide book because of the bad reviews here. Huge mistake. I collect cookbooks - that I actually use - and ATK publishes some of my favorites. This fits right in!Addressing the top two negative reviews:1. As far as the typeface goes, I do not have 20/20 vision, I wear glasses or contacts, and I also have vision disturbances due to a structural brain abnormality. Iâve never had a problem reading ATKâs cookbooks, and that includes the narrow font used in their âWhy This Worksâ section. Iâm not invalidating the other reviewerâs experience, but I strongly believe itâs more of an individual issue and not a bad printing issue.2. YES, ice cream en sous vide! Itâs brilliant. Iâll explain why in a minute. First... This isnât an âadvancedâ sous vide cookbook. Iâd call it more intermediate. Like every other ATK cookbook, itâs for the home chef who loves to cook and wants to take things up a notch beyond the typical everyday cookbook... while still having a sizable variety of accessible foods that appeal to a wide audience.2a. Can I find basic sous vide recipes for everything in this book anywhere on the internet? Yes. But if someone thinks any old sous vide eggs Benedict recipe is the same as an ATK sous vide eggs Benedict recipe... they donât know ATK. Those of us who know ATK come for the science and testing based tweaks ATK makes. Their work takes common recipes and makes them reliable and amazing. So, no, you canât just google whatâs in this recipe book. I did, however, find a bunch of recipes for sous vide bacon online!- Set circulator to 145°- Leave bacon in the original packaging and drop it in.- Leave it overnight (8-48 hours)- Sear it off!2b. Yes, make ice cream in your sous vide!! If that never crossed your mind, Iâm guessing youâre not into homemade ice cream. Which is fine! But let me explain why sous vide ice cream is brilliant: scratch made ice cream starts with a custard. Making a custard is time consuming and full of potential pitfalls. Sous vide to the rescue! You mean I can make a custard base for my Mexican chocolate ice cream while I sit on the couch and my sous vide does all the work? I donât have to stand there stirring over a double boiler? I donât have to stress the whole time about hitting that perfect balance between a too-thin custard (read: ice cream full of ice crystals) or accidentally scrambling the eggs? BRILLIANT!! So, yes, sous vide that ice cream base!Will I make every recipe in here? Nope. Iâll let my pressure cooker handle the beans and Iâm happy with my stovetop hard boiled egg recipe. But Iâd say the same with every single cookbook I own. I donât buy cookbooks to make use of every single recipe. I buy them because they have a bunch of great recipes that I do like. The best ones - like ATK - are also full of helpful cooking education. This is a great cookbook!

Title: Covers a broad spectrum of foods that benefit from sous vide
Review: Love the complete process for each recipe. Clear and consistent instructions and great photos. Iâve made three recipes already. I wasnât confident to use the sous vide without it.

Title: Good but not Great
Review: When I first opened the book, I was prepared to dislike it. Flipping through it, I saw many wonderful recipes that I'd never make. I was hoping for there to be an individual chart of food types with time and temperature. Sadly, it did not make it into the book. After scouring images on the net, I finally found one, so I'm all set now.

Title: Great Way to Start Sous Vide Cooking
Review: I received an immersion circulator as a gift but was a little unsure how to make lots of things with it. This book not only have helpful info on the technique of sous vide but is jammed full of great recipes of many types â meat, veggies, fish and even dessert!Itâs a great book for anyone looking to cook sous videâ but especially great for newbies to the technique (like me).

Title: Perfect for the beginner!
Review: I am new to sous vide cooking and I looked at quite a few cookbooks before deciding on this one. I ordered the spiral bound one, it just makes it easier for me when using my cookbook stand. The pages are glossy and full color and the instructions are easy to understand. There is even a section with each recipe called "Why This Recipe Works" which is so help in understanding the why of what you do for the recipe to work. Excellent book!

Title: Good to read even if you're only thinking about a sous vide device
Review: I know a cookbook isn't a standard read but I'm considering spending $200 on a sous vide device and thought it would be good to try and figure whether I'd use it or whether it would be a very expensive paperweight. This book gives a lot of basics. I suspect that the perfect steak and perfect eggs are my reasons for wanting one of these and the book explains in detail why this is the perfect, but not quickest, way to achieve those goals. Also how to poach an egg and make hollandaise for my beloved eggs Benedict at the same time and it's supposed to be fool-proof which is quite a claim since fools are so ingenious. I really enjoy the way ATK and Cooks Illustrated explain the science of cooking. Part of me says just tell me how to do it but another part reads every "why this works" segment at least once. I also found a lot of new ideas I expect I'll try like celery root. Celery root has never been on my radar but this makes it sound yummy and probably healthy. So the book was a good buy. Now if only the sous vide machine would go on sale!

Review: Before we start i can't cook.I'm new to sous vide cooking so I purchased a couple of books to try to understand if this way of cooking was for me. The other books just had meals that I would never eat after all I am a simple man. This book is different it explains the how and why. Each food type is explained why cooking this way is safe and why. Yes it is American but how it is worded it ok for any were in the world. It even tells you how to pronounce sous vide?Say it ten times fast: soo veed.Hope that this helps.
