maybe you love food but hate cooking or maybe you just suck at cooking maybe
you're like me I love cooking but I rarely have time to sit around and nurse
some of the foods that I like to prepare for myself to eat which can result in
more fast food junk food and paying for
late night pizza deliveries in my pajamas while waiting to respawn so how
do we solve this problem science of course all we need is a little bit of
water cooling a 1,100 WT heater a
brushless DC motor Bluetooth Wi-Fi and a neodium magnet this is SED
cooking tunnel bear is the simple VPN app that makes it easy to browse
privately and enjoy a more open internet to try tunnel bear for free check out
the link in the video description so the general idea behind
Su is that if you could control your cooking temperature very precisely and
very accurately while ensuring that the heat is applied evenly to the food all
while keeping all the juices herbs and spices contained well that would be
extremely beneficial if you like tasty food so the way that suied cookers also
known as immersion circulators accomplish these goals is pretty cool
they're submergible water circulators and heaters that keep a volume of water
within a reasonably sized container like a cooking pot at an exact predetermined
temperature then the idea is that you vacuum seal your food or put it in a
ziplock bag and squeeze the air out this
creates a barrier between the water and your food while still allowing for
adequate heat transfer what using one of these devices and achieving all of the
goals previously noted affords you is a more predictable and precise
mathematically enriched cooking experience traditional cooking methods
are heavily reliant on timing because the heat used is usually very high so
pulling what you're cooking away from the heat when it is at the correct
temperature to ensure that it isn't under or overdone can be as much of an
art as a science with Su you just put your food in a bag tell the cooker what
you plan to eat and how done you want it dunk your food in wait a set amount of
time or a little more if you're busy and then just put a sear on it to finish it
up and enhance the color texture and flavor what did you do at work today
John well I seear the chicken rest is an industrial heat gun so if you've made it
this far into the video and I know this isn't usually our thing so thank you
you're probably interested but unsure where to start there are a few solid
immersion circulators on the market currently but the one I have today is
the jewel by Chef steps a company backed by the one and only Gabe Newell whose
son took an interest in cooking after meeting Chef step's co-founders
hardware-wise the jeel is 11 in tall and only 1.85 in wide weighing in at only
1.2 28 lb it has 1,100 watts of heating
power and can maintain the temperature of up to 40ish L of water enough to
simultaneously cook enough steaks for a small freaking Army it even has an
impressive 01 de Celsius temperature
accuracy and I've tested that it's true
it does this by combining its impressive heater with a brushless DC motor and a
360° Inlet flute at the bottom to pull
in the coolest water for reheating for usability it features a neodium magnet
mount with about 6 lbs of holding Force so it's not easy to accidentally knock
over when paired with iron steel or other induction ready pots it's got a
simple clip on the back as well for other containers like Plastics and
whatnot and finally that brings us to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi which again brings
us to the software the app is arguably the best part and it features some
extremely important tools that chefsteps absolutely nailed the first of which is
visual dness so as you follow there many
interactive guides that ensure you're correctly compensating for meat type and
thickness you'll be presented with these awesome videos not only do they provide
funny yet insightful comments about the dness of your food but they even include
a video of someone cutting into said food after it has been cooked letting
you select a visual result for your meal before you even start brilliant this
works because the lower and more controlled cooking temperature allows
you to get every part of the meat even the center of the thickest sections to a
minimum temperature that will reflect that dness without overcooking anything
else this is kind of tricky with traditional cooking methods that can
leave thinner parts of the meats or parts closer to the surface overdone so
at the end of the day it's just math and Chef steps is doing it for you the
temperature you want your meat to be at when it's done corresponds to the dness
that you choose at the start then you pick the amount of time to cook for
based on the typee and the thickness of the meat in simple terms dness
determines temperature type and thickness determines time the app also
features a training wheels off manual mode that lets you pick your desired
temperature and time if you want to have some fun off the book there are many odd
things you can use the jewel to cook and of course there's also notifications
although I do have a pretty big gripe here it is truly a notification not an
alarm meaning that when my phone is muted which it essentially is always
muted I don't hear it it just vibrates
now in their defense this is a beta version and they could easily change
this with a software update and with suid it isn't as important to get your
food out of the cooker right on time their app literally tells you how long
you have to remove it which is often quite a while either way I would prefer
there was at least an option to make this notification act like an alarm so
you're hyped up you're ready to eat you're wondering what to buy I was there
on December 16th of 2015 I pre-ordered
The Jewel and as it goes with much pre-ordered hardware and the W show it
was far from on time in fact I don't even have it yet this is a beta version
that I got for review through work not the one that I bought personally I am
very happy with how well it works how easy it is to use and the quality and
feature list of the app and holy crap the food is amazing my girlfriend said
the steak that I made for her was the best she's ever had my dad was super
very much happy with the steak he had and I cooked chicken with it every other
night and it's been absolutely fantastic
wow nice this is like he went to a really
nice restaurant wow but I am a little
salty pun intended again that it's taking so damn long to get it into my
kitchen for good Dollar Shave Club as

this video like it and get subscribed and maybe go get some food cuz you're
probably hungry if you dislike this video and you're like what the hell is
happening to Lion Tech tips I expected computer videos I didn't come here for
this crappy cooking stuff uh you can dislike the video and leave a comment
like that down below if you're wondering where to buy a shirt uh check out the
link in the video description down below and buy cooking stuff at Amazon if you
would like also check out this video which is our Tech cookie on Su cooking
and I'll see you next time
