Recipe for turkey breast sous vide
Turkey breast has a bit of a bad reputation because it can often become dry. By using the sous vide technique, you can retain the juiciness and flavor in this delightful cut of meat.
We have the recipe from the book: “Sous vide 2.0 – Recipes, Techniques, Tips and Tricks” where the author Karsten Tangaard says the following about the recipe:
“Turkey breast is very lean, but still juicy and completely tender after sous vide cooking. A good sear on the ham crust provides saltiness and crunch, which complements the charred lettuce surfaces. The salad and vegetables have a sweet freshness, and it all comes together with the richness of the dressing.”
