Description
Sous vide cooking precisely controls protein denaturation and collagen gelatinization for optimal texture across meats, poultry, fish, and eggs.
Technical
By maintaining temperatures below the myosin denaturation threshold (~54–60 °C) while allowing collagen to gelatinize at higher temperatures (~70–75 °C), sous vide preserves juiciness and tenderness. Precise time–temperature profiles prevent bacterial growth and over‑denaturation of proteins, ensuring safety and sensory quality.
