Ok I am no longer on the fence with sous vide, ordered joule last night. Now I need a super recipe to cook for my wife so she is sooooo impressed she does not care or notice a new cooking tool if not I am a dead man....... oh and while I love red meat she does not eat it. Please please help me avoid the hot water I might be in.

You can do almost anything with it. Here's a recipe for shrimp (I haven't tried it): http://www.seriouseats.com/2017/01/t...de-shrimp.html

Congrats! You won't regret it.
I'd say chicken breast would be a good choice. It's almost always dry, but it sure ain't dry when done SV. It's good example of what SV can deliver and as such it'd be helpful for making your case. Then there's SV creme brulee.
Now you can make homemade yogurt easily. If you're interested, I'll post the "recipe".Last edited by Willy; March 29, 2017, 11:15 AM.

Of course and although I have never done shrimp myself yet I'm sure others will chime in.
But just for some ideas :
​​​​​​​And chicken breast is awesome done SV...

Homemade yogurt: Heat a half gallon of milk (I prefer whole milk) to 180°F, then cool to 115°F. AFTER it's cooled, add a packet of yogurt starter (available at health food stores, many home brew stores, or online) and mix it in well. Pour into two one-quart canning jars and place in a sous vide bath at 115°F for ten-twelve hours.
Refrigerate and enjoy.
In place of the starter, you can use a couple of tablespoons of a good quality yogurt, one that has active cultures. I've found this less reliable than a purchased starter.
This yogurt has no thickeners/gelling agents, so it is runnier than store bought and it's nicely tangy. I really prefer it to sweetened, thickened. store-bought. Also, the starter packet says to use one quart of milk, but one packet easily does two quarts and is therefore cheaper. (one packet costs about $1) We have this over homemade granola and fresh fruit (pineapple and grapes!) almost every morning.Last edited by Willy; March 29, 2017, 09:51 AM.

Easy - put it in the bathtub and tell her you bought her one of them there new mini spa devices. After she is less than impressed with it declare that you are not wasteful and can think of another use for it. Put your finger under your chin and look up - you know - that contemplation look. You have to give it at least 10 seconds or she will get suspicious. More time and she will think you zoned out. Suddenly, say "I've got it! You know those French cooking things? They are big and bulky. I'll bet I can replicate that with this little thing".

My wife isn't a big fan of either red meat or chicken breasts. One sous vide recipe she likes a lot is saumon mi-cuit (salmon cooked at 40 deg C). It's nearly impossible to do using standard cooking methods.

Second the salmon recommendation. Follow the Joule app guide and you can cook it exactly like she likes it. She can look at pictures of the salmon cooked at different temps and choose how she thinks she'd like it best. You can also brag about how this wonderful app was FREE.

I never hated carrots but I also never went out of my way to eat them but after trying this:
I became a fan. Sometimes I sub honey for the sugar.

Absolutely do what Breadhead said. Use the new device and grillin apparatus in cooking her favorite item. That way it will begin to justify the new purchase. Don't forget to tell her that you were thinking of her when you made this decision, since you can't cook red meat for her, because you so want to please her with your cooking. Lay it on thick! And, whatever you do, don't let her see this post! 👀 🤗
