Recipe: Sous Vide Sesame Chicken
Sesame chicken is the counterpoint to salmon in our household. Tired of one? Then try the other. We suggest playing around with different types of vinegar for the marinade until you find something you like best. Personally, we're quite fond of both rice wine vinegar and Japanese mirin.
We recommend serving over a bed of soft white rice and garnishing with finely sliced scallions for a dash of colour.

Recipe: Sous Vide Octopus
When cooked well octopus is a buttery, delivious meal that absorbs flavour like nothing else. These days a lot of attention is paid to 'umami' - or richness. Octopus, and seafood in general, are the original umami ambassadors. In sushi restaurants new hires often have to massauge the octopus before cooking in order to make it tastier down the line. Using sous vide allows for nailing this difficult balance 100% of the time, every time - and without hurting your wrists to boot.
Although not for the squeamish we would strongly suggest you give octopus a go, whether as an appetizer or main dish. There's a lot of flexibility to be had here, but for now we're pursuing a classic combination of spanish flavours like smoked paprika, rosemary and olives.

Recipe: Sous Vide Eggplant Parmesan
Eggplant parmesan is, to me, the perfect comfort meal. It's a bit of work, but with sous vide eggplant turns buttery and soft - with none of the bitterness of scrapy textures you might have (unforunately) experienced.
To simplify this recipe, feel free to use your facourite store bought tomato sauce. The one included in this recipe is a personal favourite, but nonna knows best.
