“Don’t you just hate it when you’re eating chicken, and it’s either pink or even bloody next to the bone.” And I know we do. YUK!
How can one be assured that this doesn’t happen to you? Sous Vide the pieces. If you have questions about the process, go to my website, “Dinner Parties and More.” Do a search, or click on the category “culinary techniques,” for a full description of what you need and how to do it.
It’s always a success. And it’s so easy, I’ve heard that even Bob Miller can do it.
