local chapter FMCA Vice President J EFF B UCHMAN presented the Rally Seminar at La Palma to 30+ Rally attendees. This, not new type of cooking, has become very affordable. Your machine shrink-wrapped vegetables or meat is cooked in warm-to-hot water depending on recipes and your quantities. We all got a taste of chicken, Tri-Tip beef and carrots prepared earlier in the morning. Simple “Zip-Lock” type bags work almost as well. You probably already have the big container for water. All you need is the very small Sous Vide device which can be purchased for under $100.
