I love Azubu so was keen to give this a crack.
Yeah Azabu is one of my favourite restaurants. Did you find potato starch or just use cornflour?
Potato Starch was at our supermarket in the Organic section, thankfully

Sous Vide machine arrived today.
Just to play, I am doing chicken wings as I love chicken wings. Trying that Sweet Baby Rays buffalo wing sauce which is in the bag with the wings. So excited.
Any recipes you recommend using the machine will be gratefully recieved.
Cheers

I have lost confidence with mine. Did some amazing tomahawk steak, but played with a couple of thinner steaks (less than 1 inch thick) and they came out well done, as in well over done. Too scared to try it on another expensive piece of meat

@hooroo Coincidentally I have had a brisket in @56 degrees for the last 48 hours. My plan was to finish it in the smoker tonight. It got a mild smoke before going in. However given the weather I may just sear if off on the griddle
Was it a full Brisket? Thanks for the heads up. I will definitely give that a go.

@hooroo The Sous Vide hype went through a group of friends a couple of years ago. I didn't get involved as the time was too constrictive, but now that I'm home much more often that could change. This was the general gist:
Beef / lamb must be quite thick. As you really need to sear it after and it basically undoes all temperature orientated cooking if it's too thin.
Chicken on the bone is much better than chicken off the bone.
Pork is probably the best results but it's also the easiest to screw up.I don't think that helps much but that's what I remember!

Did mini Chicken wings and fried them off after. Was happy. Didn't make a real difference though.
Going to do a pork belly and I will decide on the ingredients to go with this weekend. Will definitely do a brisket too.
I have a two bone ribeye that I will give a go too

A mate cooked oxtails, they turned out awesome

@hooroo said in Recipes, home grown goodness, BBQing and food stuff:
I have two reasonably sized pork knuckles in the freezer that I want to crackle up etc. Can I Sous Vide first and then cool and put them in an extremely hot oven to crackle? Or do I need to briefly deep fry?
Try one then the other.
Can’t really say. It’s one of those things you need to experiment and/or use judgement at each step unless you can find a recipe or like if someone that has done that work for you.
Tbh this is why I don’t go down the path of fucking around with stuff like sous vide. You can get just as good results cooking traditionally and can reference other peoples experiences.
Sous vide oxtail? WTF? Braise it on a bed of veg with whatever liquid you like after browning off. Tried true and delicious.

@hooroo texted one of the lads who was into it. His response
"WTF is a pork knuckle. Is that the things we got at beeriest?"
So not sure he'll be helpful here ...
Who doesn’t know what a pork knuckle is.
