Sous-Vide: literally, “under-water.” Recently, sous-vide technology has become accessible and financially feasible for the home cook. As a professional chef, Jensen Lorenzen has utilized sous-vide in his kitchen for over ten years. In this class, he will walk you through the advantages and disadvantages of this style of cooking. Something that has taken him years to learn, he can teach you in a few hours.

This class is an introduction to sous-vide cooking. It is designed to demystify a technique that, at first glance, might seem out of reach for the home cook. Our goal is to familiarize you with the basics in proper sous-vide methods for achieving professional quality results, with minimal effort.

In this class you will learn all the basics. A technique that has been used in professional kitchens for years can be as helpful in the home kitchen as the crock-pot, rice cooker or microwave—and just as easy to master.
