Testing 1, 2 Anova over!
« Reply #-1 on: January 04, 2015, 04:29:36 PM »
Figured before I do a 72 hour cook I'd take baby steps.
First soft boiled egg at 167 for 18 minutes.
Perfect yolk but white was too loose. I'll do 185 degrees for 13 minutes





Next, stuffed chicken breast.
Cooking at 148 for 2 hours





I'll be back!

Don't you just love the way the yolks turn out a bright silky smooth yellow when eggs are SV?

Watching the chicken, I know it will be good, chicken always turns out great in SV.

I deboned a whole chicken, kept the breast whole. Stuffed with chopped raisins, Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs.

I am a little disappointed Biggie...(but ONLY a little ;D...) With the  fine collection of liquor you have - you did not brandy those raisins first? :D :D :D

JK...I am drooling, waiting on the results.

I am curious how the chicken will turn out when being stuffed.

I knew you getting a SV device was going to be good for this forum!

Here's the thing, I picked 2 hours to see if it'd dry out.
WRONG! I'm a thigh man but let me tell you something, supple, juicy and tender.



Served over warm potato salad and arugula.



I might need a second thingamajig. LOL

Next, beef short ribs.

Go for it, I just got my second Anova as a Christmas present.

The stuffed chicken looks great, will have to try it myself.  ;)

One bag is salt and pepper only. The other bag is salt, pepper and a  little ghee. I want to see if I need to add a little fat or not.

I am going to predict that you do not need to add the ghee - but if you like the butter flavor add...why not? ;)

I'll pull one bag after 48 hours and the next at 72. I'll see which one I prefer.

Tee, I think so too.

I prefer the texture of around 50 hours. The 72 hour are good but are almost too tender if that is possible.
