SOUS VIDE SWEET POTATOES: HOW TO COOK SWEET POTATOES PERFECTLY

Steps:

• Preheat the Sous Vide Machine: Fill a large container or pot with water. Attach the sous vide precision cooker and set the temperature to 194ºF/90ºC.
• Season the Sweet Potatoes: Wash the sweet potatoes, peel the skin, and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes.
• In a large bowl, mix the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until they are evenly coated.
• Vacuum-seal the Bag: Add the seasoned sweet potato pieces into a vacuum-seal bag or zip-lock bags and arrange them in a single layer.
• Vacuum seal the bag if you have a vacuum sealer, otherwise, use a zip-lock bag using the "water displacement" technique: Just seal all but one corner of the bag. Slowly place it in the water bath, and make sure everything below the zip-line is covered by water. Then seal the rest of the bag. (Make sure to arrange in one layer. If your bag is not large enough, use multiple bags).
• Make sure the sweet potatoes are fully submerged. You can add sous vide weight or use heavy kitchen items to weigh the bag down if necessary.
• Sous Vide Cook: Cook for 30 minutes.
• When the timer goes off, take the bag out and remove the sweet potatoes from the bag and transfer to a plate.
• Season with more salt, pepper and optional chopped fresh parsley.

SOUS VIDE ESSENTIALS: BUTTERY SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. You will need a Sous Vide machine to make this recipe.
• 3. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 4. Place your Sous Vide machine in a pot or container and set the temperature to 185f (85c).
• 5. While the water is heating up, peel the sweet potato, cut into 1/2 inch (1.3cm), slices, and quarter.
• 6. Cube the cold butter.
• 7. In a small bowl, add the butter cubes and the potato quarters together, then toss with some salt, pepper, and cinnamon.
• 8. Add to a vacuum seal bag, spread out into an even layer, and seal
• 9. Water Displacement Method If you are not using a vacuum-sealing machine (Food Saver, etc.), then you, most likely, are employing standard plastic food bags (Ziploc, etc.). To get as much of the air out of the bag, as possible, fill it with food and slowly sink the open bag into a pan of water, while keeping the open end just above the waterline. The pressure of the water will push against the bag and force out most of the air. Then, seal the bag and you are ready to sous vide. If I am using Ziploc-type bags, I always clip the bag to the side of the container with the zip-seal portion above the water line. One more thing, do not use the "regular" Ziploc bags; use the ones designed to go into the freezer. They are much stronger and less prone to leaks.
