  3. Thomas Keller | Under Pressure: Cooking Sous Vide

    Sous vide is an innovative culinary technique that is revolutionizing the professional food world. Blazing the gastronomic trail is Thomas Keller, owner and chef of legendary restaurants The French Laundry, Bouchon, and per se. In Under Pressure, Keller shows how this foolproof cooking method, which involves cooking food at precise temperatures below simmering, yields consistently phenomenal results. Named America’s Best Chef by Time magazine, Keller has earned numerous accolades over the past decade, including back-to-back Best Chef awards from the James Beard Foundation: the first chef to achieve such an honor.

    Chef Keller will be interviewed on-stage by fellow chef, and French Laundry co-author, Michael Ruhlman.

  5. Ihnatko Almanac episode #00165: “One Good Knife” – Andy Ihnatko’s Celestial Waste of Bandwidth (BETA)

    iA #00165: “One Good Knife”

     

    I’m really pleased with this week’s show. Dan bought an Anova sous vide cooker based on my tales of how well it cooked my Thanksgiving dinner, and I thought it’d be fun to do an all-cooking show.

    We spent most of the show talking about sous vide cooking but I’d called out on Twitter for cooking-related ideas and questions, so we went a little broad, too. Some highlights, that I recall:

    You can eat pink chicken and not become violently ill;

    How to make green beans that taste great and don’t have to be eaten out of a sense of obligation;

    Vacuum sealers, and why I don’t have to eat lots of cheese very fast any more;

    Cooking Gear Acquisition Syndrome, and why One Good Knife is probably better than Several Weird Ones.

    I keep coming back to the idea of writing more about cooking, or maybe even starting a food podcast. I’m not an expert on food. My particular set of culinary skills involve methods of cheating your way through a nice, cooked meal. I have little to offer by way of insights on the difference between shaved and ground truffles. I’m the guy who was excited to discover that chopsticks have a million uses, you can buy a million of them for like ten bucks, and if you use ‘em instead of the usual cooking and eating utensils, you wind up with one or three fewer things to wash and dry after dinner.

    I shall ponder.

    My Tweets about this particular show attracted the attention of the folks at Nomiku. They’re the other big name in consumer sous vide cookers, and they’ll be sending me their next-gen device when it ships next month.

  7. Cooking Issues #189 - Sous Vide and Fireball Whiskey

    This week on Cooking Issues, Dave Arnold is joined by Douglas Baldwin, author of Sous Vide for the Home Cook to discuss death curves, low-temp safety, and his ChefSteps sous vide class. Later on they discuss the ethics of food safety procedures and the risks of eating. Dave also takes listener questions on injection turkey brining and the science behind the infamous fried turkey explosion. After the break Dave goes into detail on grinders of all types and his thoughts on the Fireball whiskey recall. This program was brought to you by Cain Vineyard & Winery.

    If you’re going to try something new and experimental for Thanksgiving, test it first" [13:00]

    "Cooking is relatively unsafe unless its very well controlled. This is why people get food poisoning all the time. As a whole, low temp cooking is vastly more controlled than traditional home cooking and therefore more safe." [19:00]

    "The average sprout is an abomination!" [25:00]
