Low-temperature Cooking - Practice

Practice

A typical process for low-temperature cooking would involve vacuum sealing food in a plastic bag and placing vacuum packaged food in a water bath with precise controlled temperature for a long duration. The food is then briefly browned, its outside surface temperature exposed to a much higher temperature (e.g., 400 °F), using a roasting pan or even a blow torch prior to serving. One eccentric variant of low-temperature cooking involves placing the food in a dishwasher.

Famous quotes containing the word practice:

    “If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practise, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever- present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.”
    —Muriel Spark (b. 1918)

    “The practice of S/M is the creation of pleasure.... And that’s why S/M is really a subculture. It’s a process of invention. S/M is the use of a strategic relationship as a source of pleasure.”
    —Michel Foucault (1926–1984)

    “Kindness is a virtue neither modern nor urban. One almost unlearns it in a city. Towns have their own beatitude; they are not unfriendly; they offer a vast and solacing anonymity or an equally vast and solacing gregariousness. But one needs a neighbor on whom to practice compassion.”
    —Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
