GUIDES MacDirectory 131 Precision cooking, or sous vide as its also called, may be the perfect fix for Dad's that are culinary challenged. This easy-to-execute cooking technique uses a water bath set at a fixed temperature to ensure that your foods are cooked perfectly every time. With no opportunities to burn dinner or undercook the main course, Dad will knock it out of the park! Anova's Precision Cooker is a great way to get perfect results right in your home kitchen. The Precision Cooker comes packaged with a clamp to attach it to any of your existing cookware—most large soup pots will work, or an inexpensive plastic tub. The 360-degree pump moves 8-liters of water a minute, heating up your water bath to the desired temperature and keeping it that way by powering the heating element as needed. The precise temperature you need can be manually selected via the backlit scroll wheel on the Precision Cooker itself, or alternatively programmed from the Anova app (compatible with both iOS and Android). Using the app provides the added bonus of guides and recipes that take the guesswork out of selecting the proper temperature, Precision Cooker by Anova including pictures of different cook temperatures from rare to well done. Easy to read, with a ton of pictures, the app is really a solid companion to an already amazing cooking tool. Dad can start cooking and monitor the time and temperature on his phone without babysitting the kitchen (the app will easily notify you when the food is ready). Truly fool-proof, the Precision Cooker makes it nearly impossible to overcook food. Depending on the recipe, Dad may want to sear the meat for that desirable crust, but otherwise it's ready to go! 4 At the end of the night, the Anova Precision Cooker makes cleanup a breeze— pour out the water, throw away the plastic bag used for cooking, and dry off the device. It doesn't get any easier than that. For any fathers that can struggle in the kitchen, or are simply looking to achieve the perfect temperature every single time, the Anova Precision Cooker is a home run. Try it once and you'll never want to cook any other way. For more information, visit: www.anovaculinary.com
