Not long ago, you’d find it mainly on fine dining menus. Today, anyone can cook sous vide at home—with just a few basics and the right tools. This slow and precise cooking method will win you over with its rich flavor, simplicity, and gentle approach to ingredients. And with Lauben’s help, it gets even easier.
What is sous vide?
Sous vide is a method of cooking where ingredients are vacuum-sealed and cooked in a water bath at a precisely controlled temperature—usually between 50–80 °C. Thanks to this stable, low-temperature environment, your food stays juicy, flavorful, and full of nutrients.
And the best part? You don’t need any fancy skills. It’s the temperature and time that do the cooking—not you sweating over the stove.
How to do it at home
Start by placing your ingredients (like meat, fish, vegetables, or eggs) in a vacuum-seal bag. The Lauben Vacuum Sealer 60SB ensures a perfect seal—air out, flavor in.
Then place the bag into a water container with the Lauben Sous Vide Stick SV01 clipped to the side. This elegant immersion stick keeps the temperature steady—whether you’re cooking steak at 56 °C or salmon at 50 °C. Everything is controlled via a simple touch display, and the powerful 1200 W heater warms the water in no time.
For longer cooking sessions, the Lauben Sous Vide Container 12 is your best friend. Its durable body and lid help prevent water evaporation and look great in your kitchen, even when stored.
