11 Mistakes Everyone Makes With Sous Vide Cooking - Mashed

Although it ensures an even and controllable transfer of heat, sous vide cooking also produces an unrivaled amount of waste when compared with other common cooking techniques. This is because nearly every item of food cooked using this process is traditionally contained in a plastic bag, creating vast volumes of single-use plastic waste. However, with the public increasingly prioritizing the environment and governments introducing measures such as taxes to control plastic use (per Government of the United Kingdom), many are seeking ways to sous vide without utilizing single-use plastics.

One popular alternative is to purchase reusable bags, usually made from silicone. According to Sous Vide, these bags can be washed out and reused a large number of times. Many brands which make sous vide equipment such as Anova have launched their own silicon bag ranges, which, while not being vacuum sealable, still produce satisfactory results (via Reviewed). For those not willing to invest more money into their kitchen, Ziploc bags will perform the same function, as they are suitable for being washed. However, they are much less durable than their silicon counterparts and will break after being used a few times, potentially ruining your meal. Finally, mason jars can be used to hold certain foods cooking in the sous vide. However, Anova notes that due to the gasses and liquids released they are not suitable for the cooking of meats and vegetables as the jar might shatter under pressure.
