    Sous vide steaks are the best way to cook a steak. If you get a steak at a high end restaurant, it will be sous vide no matter what. And no, it’s not “boil in a bag”. Smh.

      Please explain how putting food in a plastic bag and then immersing it in hot water differs from “boil in a bag”

        It’s a bit more involved. You need to vacuum seal your food so you have a consistent temperature across entirety of the surface. You don’t really boil the water either, you have to keep it as an exact temperature and keep it circulating. That way you can cook food in seasonings and marinades to a perfect temperature then pan sear afterward for color with out losing any juices.

        If you just throw food in a bag and boil it, you’ll probably be disappointed with the comparison to actual sous vide cooking.
