Boilable Vacuum Pouches (for Sous Vide)
Our boilable vacuum pouches are perfectly suited to sous vide cooking where high temperatures (up to 120ºC) are required.
Made from 9 layers of high temperature nylon/polythene laminate which provides exceptional barrier properties and prevents the passage of air, inert gasses or water vapour. They guarantee a very reliable seal.
We offer an extensive range of boilable vacuum pouches with features including:
- Ability to high temperature cook if required – up to 120 degrees C (120º Celcius)
- Can be steamed, boiled or microwaved.
- “Sous vide” printed into the seal to avoid mix-ups with standard vacuum pouches
- Our boilable vacuum pouches provide excellent temperature control to ensure perfect cooking and food safety.
Typical Usage Applications
Our boilable vacuum pouches are suitable for cooking a wide range of food types including :
- Meats and poultry – beef, lamb, pork and chicken
- Fish and seafood – sous vide works well with delicate fish, ensuring it is not overcooked
- Vegetables, selected fruits and eggs
Advantages of boilable vacuum pouches
- Taste: The juices are locked in, enhancing the overall flavour
- Consistency: Meat in particular becomes very tender and succulent
- Space saving: Sous Vide cooking takes up relatively little space, ideal for smaller kitchens
- Time saving: Food can be prepared in advance, vacuum sealed and stored for relatively long periods of time, perfect for busy kitchens.
