Someone in my family used to make this for special occasions, and it's really nice served chilled with some whipped cream. Great recipe!

[alessandropalmero]

This is a recipe I use all the time, it levels up dessert on a magnitude scale.

You guys have an absolutely amazing working environment, looks like everything is top of the range and you know how to use it and whats more, you even have fun whilst you are doing it too.

I don't want to be a teacher. I really want to be a chef. Like this!

Wow...I was kinda debating on whether to sub this channel for a while because I don't really have any of the propped equipment for the work you guys do, but you guys have the most creative ideas that can't stop me from watching. Keep it up!

If you want to sous vide something with a lot of sauce, freeze it first. Prepare the sauce the day before and put it into an ice tray. Put the ice cubes in the vacuum bag when you seal it

I can't help but think that a little bit of that juice reduction would be amazing in a cocktail with champagne and a splash of Cointreau.

Classic Spanish  Dessert Recipe! It´s really good if you add mild ajoblanco and a lime peel twist.
Really nice videos! Keep up with the good work guys!

a great take on a dutch classic "stoofpeertjes"

[chefsteps]

we pulled to 20 mBar, we recommend pulling as strong a vacuum as your machine will allow

[rafaelcebriansalvat]

I need to get in that but cognac is my choice. Any advice for sugar Quantity?

[beeldbuijs]

Interesting. How strong is the vacuum? Bar? Watt? Thanks.

[JonathanKitchens]

What are the factors affecting the "uptake" of the sauce into the pear? I created this dish earlier, and while it was fantastic still, the pears I used didn't look nearly as "filled" with the sauce as yours appear to be. I'm just curious as to if its in vacuum pressure, pear type, etc.

[ClearAutumnFestival]

What is the brand and model of that digital scale? =)

[Kindreda]

Could you use the water displacement method for this?

[whiteazn]

Would a food saver vacuum sealer work for this?

[ClearAutumnFestival]

What's the device at 25 seconds? A digital scale for the sugar?

[김영우-ev]

Impressive, I'm wodering that can i use apple instead of pear?
