Pictures to Follow...GO CHARGERS!!

"Just put it in a bag"

It's nuts how sucking the air out of a bag and "confiting" or sous vide prevails over any classic cooking technique...if done right...at the right temperature...it's guaranteed to be better than anything you have ever had.

This is a confit of sweet shallots, leeks, and fennel...cooked at 165 degrees for 4 hours....perfect. Especially for a baked trout from idaho..wink wink

My Tools

My small tool kit that is currently building...gellan s and gellan lt to join the family as soon as it comes back in stock....my favorites though have to be my tweezers and my Ux-10...simple and perfect...hobbies and passion don't come cheap
