Butter sous vide steak - OMG! (Pornographic)
Poaching in fat (butter, ghee, olive oil, duck fat…etc) at low temperature for a long time is actually called confit. It’s a very established french cooking technique.
I olive oil poached fish once (in the oven) and it was one of the best pieces of fish I’ve ever had. Cooked to perfection.
One of our favorite restaurants does Sous Vide beef ribs as an appetizer. Absolutely incredible. I think I am just going to get a few of them next time as a meal.
So, how would this compare to vacuum sealing a stick of butter with my 2day sous vide chuck roast?
Tried it I did not notice as much a change, but my non-keto kids insisted on eating the fat pieces (always cut and discarded before) because they tasted so “buttery” and yummy.
I’m sure it’s delicious but to be fair that was a pretty damn good steak to begin with. I have to think butter in the sous vide bag would produce a similar result.
