Sous-vide will be big in 2018. But what is it? The short answer is it’s a method of cooking by vacuum sealing and steaming food to the perfect temperature. It’s the technology used in the most high-end restaurants, giving unmatched texture to food while also preventing overcooking.
Now this method is moving into everyone’s kitchen. So let the AEG SteamPro oven enable you to prepare with precision. And best of all, more vitamins, colours and nutrients stay sealed in.
SteamPro oven
In our SteamPro ovens with sous-vide, you can achieve results that are impossible in a normal oven. Vacuum sealed bags slow oxidation, preserving flavour.
Temperature is maintained within a half-degree range. This precision gives you mouthwatering flavour and results you can recreate time after time. Sous-vide may be an advanced technique, but AEG makes it easy.
