6SousVide Supreme Demi Instructions
Cooking with the SousVide Supreme Demi
As with any new cooking method, there are some differences in technique that
you will want to become familiar with. Here are the basic principles you should
understand:
Length of cooking time depends on the thickness of the food (meat especially)
more than the weight. Doubling the thickness of a steak, for instance, increas-
es the time needed for the meat to reach target temperature at its center by
as much as four times. Thus if a 1–inch (2.5 cm) steak requires a minimum of
1 hour to reach the ‘medium’ target temperature of 140F/60C, a 2-inch (5 cm)
steak will require not 2, but 4 hours to reach 140F/60C.
Foods can be cooked at their desired serving temperature and held for
extended periods of time (8 hours or more) without significant loss of flavor
or appeal or can be cooked at higher temperatures more quickly. When cook-
ing meat at a temperature higher than the desired serving temperature, using
the timer function is required to prevent overcooking.
Tougher cuts of lean meat require longer cooking times (6 to 8 hours or more)
at desired serving temperature, which will not overcook, but rather tenderize
the meat. Typical of this group would be flank steak, eye of round, grass-fed
beef, ostrich filets, or bison steaks.
Tough, fatty cuts of meat, such as pot roast, pork ribs, leg of lamb, should be
cooked at temperatures hot enough to ‘melt’ the collagen fibers into gelatin,
which means at least 140F/60C and for at least 24 hours. Some very tough
cuts, such as beef cheeks or beef spare ribs may require up to 72 hours. The
end result is simply succulent, falling-apart-tender meat.
Very tender meats, such as lamb chops, rack of lamb, or tenderloin of beef or
pork, need only to be brought to serving temperature throughout, which
requires less time. Leaving tender cuts in the water bath for extended periods
(over 4 to 6 hours) can cause some loss of textural quality.
Poultry is best cooked as the individual parts. Air trapped in the cavity of a
whole bird carcass can cause the bag to float in the water bath and result in
uneven cooking. Half chickens, ducks, or game hens or individual breasts,
legs, or thighs work best in the SousVide Supreme Demi water oven.
Vegetables and fruits, which contain a significant amount of fiber, require
higher temperatures than meats (usually 183F/84C to 190F/87C) for 1 to 2
hours to become tender. Tender vegetables, such as asparagus, broccoli,
cauliflower, cabbage, summer and winter squash varieties, as well as most
fruits including tomatoes may need only 45 minutes. Root vegetables, such as
beets, carrots, potatoes, parsnips, and turnips will usually require 1-2 hours.
Longer cooking times will result in very soft fruit and vegetable textures, ideal
for soups and purees.
Some foods—those for which poaching is an ideal preparation medium, such
as vegetables, fish, shellfish, and skinless poultry—can be plated and served
straight from the cooking pouch.
Foods in which a caramelized or crisp exterior is preferred—such as roasts,
NA_demi_us_manual_rev.qxd 10/20/10 11:04 AM Page 6
SousVide Supreme Demi Instructions 7
steaks, and chops—require a brief finishing step (on the grill, under the broiler,
in a hot skillet, or using a kitchen torch) to sear the exterior before serving.
Poultry is best cooked skinless. For crispy poultry skin, remove skin carefully
before sous vide cooking. To crisp the skin, cut the skin into strips about
1
/
2-inch wide. Lay the strips in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with parch-
ment paper and season with salt and pepper. Then place another sheet of
parchment paper over the skin and another sheet pan atop the parchment
paper. Place the sheet pans in a 350F/176C oven and cook until the skin is
very crispy; check at about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let
the skin cool on a wire rack until needed.
The 5 Basic Steps for Cooking in the SousVide Supreme Demi
Season
The sous vide cooking method locks in the flavor of foods, bringing out their
particular character more fully. Vacuum-sealing the food and any seasonings
or oils tightly together in the pouch magnifies the flavors of spices and herbs
somewhat. Seasoning can be as simple as a sprinkle of salt and pepper, but
adding fat or oil to herbs and spices can improve flavor quality. Here are some
simple techniques:
Compound butters—mix fresh or dried herbs, spices, salt, and pepper with
unsalted butter. Use to coat the inside of the empty cooking pouch, then add
the meat or vegetables, and seal.
Herbed broths—mix fresh or dried herbs, spices, salt, and pepper with
vegetable, mushroom, beef, seafood, or chicken broth. Freeze in small por-
tions (in an ice cube tray or a zip closure bag) and add the frozen seasoned
broth to the cooking pouch with the meat, poultry, fish, or vegetable prior to
sealing. The broth will melt and envelope the food.
Chilled herbed oil—mix fresh or dried herbs, spices, salt, and pepper with
olive oil (do not use extra virgin olive oil, as it will sometimes develop a bitter
metallic flavor.) Chill the oil until it is semi-solid and add by the tablespoon
(or more) to the cooking pouch along with the food, then seal.
DO NOT use wine or distilled spirits in the seasoning, without first heating
it on the stovetop for a few minutes to drive off the alcohol, leaving only the
flavor of the wine or spirit. Alcohol, especially from wine, can impart a peculiar
metallic flavor to meals cooked sous vide.
Seal
Use only food-grade plastic vacuum-sealable pouches to package foods for
cooking in your SousVide Supreme Demi. Seal according to manufacturer’s
instructions. Use only pouches certified by the manufacturer as suitable for
cooking under vacuum. Do not use standard zip-closure bags meant for food
storage.
1. Fold back the opening of the bag before before filling to prevent seasonings
or debris from becoming trapped in a zip track, if present. This debris can
hamper successful sealing of the pouch.
NA_demi_us_manual_rev.qxd 10/20/10 11:04 AM Page 7
8SousVide Supreme Demi Instructions
2. Place food and desired seasonings into the bag.
3. Do not overfill the bag. Try to keep food clear of the vacuum membrane
area, if present.
4. If using a zip-closure bag, zip the bag closed and check to see that it made
a good seal.
5. Vacuum seal the bag.
NOTE: If for any reason, pumping does not evacuate air from the bag,
discard bag and begin again, placing food into a new bag.
EADES APPLIANCE TECHNOLOGY, LLC does not recommend using stan-
dard or thin zip-closure bags, not designed for evacuating air, in the SousVide
Supreme Demi.
Simmer
Place the sealed pouch into the water bath once the water has reached the
target temperature for cooking. If using multiple pouches, place them vertically
in the pouch rack in the water bath. Be sure the food in all pouches is com-
pletely under the water surface for cooking. Do not place large pouches
horizontally in the SousVide Supreme Demi, as this will impede the convection
circulation of water around the perimeter of the water bath.
Sear
Some foods, such as steak, chops, tenderloin, fish, seafood, or poultry with
the skin are commonly served with a caramelized or crisp exterior, which is
not possible in the moist environment of the sous vide cooking pouch. After
coming to the proper temperature, these foods require a quick finishing sear
that can only be provided by a brief exposure to a very hot temperature.
The Sear step can be done by putting the meat, fish, poultry, or seafood into
a very hot, lightly oiled skillet (taken to the smoking point) or onto a hot grill,
under the broiler of an oven, or by using a kitchen torch to caramelize the
surface of the food.
Take care just to caramelize/brown the surface (1 to 2 minutes) to enhance
color and flavor.
or Sauce
Another option is to sauce your food. Foods such as fish, seafood, or chicken
are quite delicious topped with a favorite sauce.
Serve
You are now on your way to exploring the delightful benefits of sous vide
cooking with your SousVide Supreme Demi. For more tips and recipes, visit
SousVideSupreme.com.
Note: Raw or unpasteurized food must never be served to highly susceptible
immune compromised individuals. The US Food Code recommends that for
safety, foods should not be kept between 41F/5C and 130F/54.4C for longer
than four hours.

Troubleshooting
If your SousVide Supreme Demi is not operating properly, please follow these
recommended checks before contacting customer service. If after following
these recommendations, your machine still fails to function properly (or for
any malfunction not covered in this Troubleshooting Guide) please contact us
at customerservice@sousvidesupreme.com or call the Customer Service
Department at 877.787.6836 Monday through Friday between 9:00 a.m.
and 4:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time for assistance.
Machine won’t start.
1. Be sure the unit is plugged in and the outlet is working.
2. You should feel/hear a slight click when you depress the On/Off button.
If you do not, reposition your finger and press/hold again.
3. Make certain to press and hold the On/Off button for 3 seconds. If the unit
fails to start after that time, reposition your finger and press/hold again.
Machine beeps during the cooking process.
1. The machine should beep:
to signal that it has preheated to its set target cooking temperature.
• to signal that it has regained its set target after cool food pouches, ice, or
additional water have been put into the water bath.
• to signal the completion of a pre-set cooking time.
2. The machine should not beep during the cooking process if it is at the
desired/set cooking temperature. If it does:
• check to be sure cooking pouches have not settled to the bottom,
occluding the holes of the perforated bottom grill or impeding circulation
around the perimeter of the water bath. If this has occurred, use the pouch
rack and reposition the pouches to open the circulation.
• check to be sure that there is sufficient water in the machine—i.e., that
the water level reaches the FILL line on the interior wall of the water bath.
Water is found on the counter under the machine.
Water can accumulate inside the lid (especially when using the machine at
temperatures above 175F/80C or for extended periods) and may, on occa-
sion, overflow the lip of the unit and run onto the counter.
1. Check the sides of the machine housing for evidence of wetness, indicating
that water has trickled down the sides and pooled there. If so, remove the lid
periodically during higher temperature or prolonged cooking, and allow the
accumulated water to flow back into the bath.
2. If you see no evidence that water has dripped down the outside of the
machine, turn off the machine, unplug the unit, move it and wipe up the spill.
Make sure everything is dry and turn the machine back on, resetting the
desired temperature. If the water re-appears beneath the machine, there
could be a gasket leak. Turn off the machine, unplug it, and contact customer
service.
NA_demi_us_manual_rev.qxd 10/20/10 11:04 AM Page 9
10 SousVide Supreme Demi Instructions
The temperature is not holding to within 1F/0.5C.
1. Check to be sure that there is sufficient water in the unit—i.e., the water
level at least reaches the FILL line on the interior wall of the water bath.
2. Check to be sure that cooking pouches are not lying on the bottom,
occluding all or most of the holes in the perforated bottom grill or impeding
circulation around the perimeter of the bath.

Recipes
SousVide Supreme
Steaks in Browned Butter
Serves 1–4
Cooking time: minimum 30 minutes for 1-inch (2.5 cm);
2 hours for 2-inches (5 cm) or up to 4 hours
1 to 4 tender steaks (rib eye or let mignon) 1 to 2 inches (2.5–5 cm) thick
Coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Garlic powder
Bacon grease (rendered bacon fat) or unsalted butter (optional)
Fill and preheat the SousVide Supreme to desired serving temperature
(134°F/56.5°C for medium rare).
Step 1: Season
Sprinkle each steak lightly with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Step 2: Seal
Though no fat is necessary, if desired, place a generous tablespoon (.5 oz/
15 g) of bacon grease or butter into the center of the food pouch and press sides
together to distribute the fat across the middle of the pouch. (Avoid the area im-
mediately beneath the vacuum valve or membrane if present in the pouch.)
Place each steak into a suitably sized pouch, leaving ample room to seal
the pouch. Vacuum the air from the pouch as completely as possible, according
to your machine’s instructions.
Step 3: Simmer
Place the pouch(es) into the pouch rack slots and then lower the rack into the
preheated SousVide Supreme water oven. Be sure the meat is submerged fully
throughout the cooking process. At the appropriate time, remove the pouches
from the water oven onto the inverted lid and allow them to cool for about 10
minutes at room temperature, or quick chill and refrigerate up to 48 hours. Allow
chilled meat to come to room temperature before searing in step 4.
Step 4: Sear
When ready to serve, open the pouches and remove the steaks. Pat the
surface dry with a paper towel. Heat 2 tablespoons (1 oz/30 g) of unsalted butter
in a skillet (one large enough to hold the steaks comfortably or sear in batches)
over medium high heat. When the butter foams and just begins to color (don’t
let it burn) place the steaks into the skillet and allow them to gently reheat and
brown on the surface, no more than 1 minute on each side.
Step 5: Serve
Place each steak on a warmed plate and drizzle the remaining browned butter
over the meat.
2 SousVide Supreme Recipes
Succulent Lamb T-Bone Chops
Serves 4
Cooking time: minimum 1 hour for 1-inch (2.5 cm);
3 hours for 2-inches (5 cm) or up to 4 hours
8 lamb T-bone chops
Coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 packet SousVide Supreme New Zealand Lamb Rub Seasoning Blend
Fill and preheat the SousVide Supreme to desired serving temperature
(134°F/56.5°C for medium rare)
Step 1: Season
Lightly salt and pepper the chops and generously sprinkle SousVide Supreme
New Zealand Lamb Rub on both sides.
Step 2: Seal
Place two seasoned chops into each appropriately sized (1 quart/.95 liter) pouch
and seal.
Step 3: Simmer
Place the pouches into the pouch rack, ensuring that the meat is fully submerged
beneath the surface of the water bath. Cook chops for at least 1 hour and up
to 4 hours. Cooking beyond 4 hours can result in excessive softening of the
meat. At the appropriate time, remove the pouches from the water oven into the
inverted lid and allow to cool in the pouches for about 10 minutes at room tem-
perature. You may also quick chill in an ice water bath (half ice, half water) for at
least one hour and refrigerate for use up to 48 hours. Allow chilled meat to come
to room temperature before searing in step 4.
Step 4: Sear
When ready to serve, open the pouches and remove the chops. Pat the
surface dry with a paper towel. Heat 2 tablespoons (1 oz/30 g) of unsalted butter
in a skillet (one large enough to hold the chops comfortably or sear in batches)
over medium high heat. When the butter foams and just begins to color (don’t let
it burn) place the chops into the skillet and allow them to gently reheat and brown
on the surface for 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side.
Step 5: Serve
Place the chops onto warmed plates, pour the browned butter over them,
and serve with minted vinegar or mint jelly, if desired.

Tender and Juicy Pork Chops
Serves 1–4
Cooking time: Minimum 4 hours
1 to 4 double thick boneless pork chops (about 2-inches/5cm thick)
Coarse salt (omit if brining chops)
Freshly ground black pepper
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Paprika
Bacon fat and/or butter (optional)
For best results, brine the pork chops overnight in the refrigerator. Make the
brining solution by dissolving 1
/8 cup (1 oz/30 g) kosher salt in 1 quart (23  oz/
.95 liters) of water in a 1 gallon (3.785 liter) zip closure bag or large covered con-
tainer. Place the chops into the brine, seal or cover, and refrigerate 4 hours or up
to overnight. When ready to cook, remove the chops from the brine and discard
the brining liquid. Rinse the chops in cold water. Pat dry.
Fill and preheat the SousVide Supreme to desired serving temperature
(140°F/60°C for medium).
Step 1: Season
Sprinkle the chops lightly on both sides with each of the seasonings, omitting the
salt if you brined the chops beforehand.
Step 2: Seal
If desired, place a generous tablespoon (.5 0z/15 g) of bacon fat or butter into
each vacuum pouch (suitable to hold 1 to 2 chops) and press the sides of the
pouch together to distribute the fat across the interior. Place seasoned chops
into the pouch(es).
Step 3: Simmer
Place the pouches into the pouch rack and load into the SousVide Supreme
water oven. Be sure that all the meat is fully submerged below the surface of
the water in the bath. Cook at the target temperature for at least 4 hours, but no
more than 8.
When ready to serve, remove pouch(es) from the water bath and place into
inverted lid. Allow chops to cool for 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature before
proceeding, or quick chill and store in refrigerator for use within 48 hours. Bring
refrigerated chops to room temperature before searing.
Remove the chops from the pouch(es) and pat the surface of the meat dry with
a paper towel.
Step 4: Sear (3 methods given)
On the stovetop: Melt 2 tablespoons (1 oz/30 g) of butter or vegetable oil in a
skillet over medium high heat. When it foams, place the chops into the skillet to
4 SousVide Supreme Recipes
gently reheat and brown for approximately 1 minute on each side.
On the grill: Oil the grates of the grill. Preheat the grill to hot (450°F/232°C to
500°F/260°C). Sear chops on the grill for 1 minute per side.
With a kitchen torch: Place a pat of soft butter onto each chop. With a slow,
gentle motion, sear the surface of the meat (just the top side) with the torch until
the meat slightly browns and the butter bubbles.
Step 5: Serve
Place each chop on a warmed plate. If you seared on the stovetop, pour any
remaining browned butter over the chops.
