What does OP think of saving thumbnails?

I want to try but $200 seems too much to drop on a device that I might not use after the novelty wears off.

What's the ideal temperature to sous vide a 'go 'za?

I wanna stick a live lobster in one just to see what would happen

It would move around until the water got too hot and stuns it, then it would stop moving. Then it would turn red and cook like a regular lobster.

It wouldn't be that interesting.

Honestly, if you're a restaurant, yeah definitely. It just makes things easier and more efficient.
But for a home cook? No, they're expensive and there is probably a list of other things you want or need in your kitchen before that. The only way I would recommend it to someone is if they BBQ a lot. You can sous vide Sausages in some beer and just leave it going while you walk away and when its done people can grab what they want. Though again, price is still a factor and you can get a reasonable smoker for around the same.

I use an immersion circulator to cook boiled eggs perfectly every time whether it's soft, medium or hard
Literally the only thing it's good for in a household setting

The fuck are you smoking? You think $125 device that is like a culinary magic wand is expensive?

Enjoy your instant ramen.

For a Home Kitchen investment? Yeah it is. You think most people will use that enough to justify them buying it?

And yeah its a magic wand, but you realize people don't usually have the time to even cook? Which is why I made the difference between home cooking. I mean fuck me, people will microwave bacon and it is beyond me. Most regular people homes I visit don't even own a fucking stand mixer.

And congratulations on finding a picture on the internet to prove you "know food"

When I got my own place I ended up buying a kitchenaid, vitamix, anova, and an old tilia food saver and they've all paid for themselves in some fashion.
