AF'd 1/2 of the batch just now . the other 1/2 Ill SV @ 130.1F for 24 H ( vac packed ) ,
and the other an additional 12 H . rapid chill . , then AF at some point.
out of the bags , a little glaze on them , ready for the AF
I preheated 400 F
instructions were to reglaze every 3 - 4 minutes first hot glaze
second
third
done. total 20 minutes .
plated
cut.
of note , the parchment paper I used , the flat w the holes in it , didn't really completely fit the AF's basket.
I derided clean up w the burnt sugar. I might try the basket parchment paper ,
as I noted the two types I purchased from Amazon along w the fryer.
good news : the clean up went fine . by had w hot water and a brief soak w liquid detergent.
the taste for a first attempt was good. 22 - 24 minutes might have been a better idea for the time.
the Rx says 14m- 16M , but I think the hunks in the Rx were thinner.
and the marinade needed more 5 spice . Ive noted that on the Rx.
@Dejah shared here Rx . similar , w the addition of fresh ginger and sesame oil
Ive made a note and will add that next time , maybe even some lemon grass as I have some
plump stalks Vac'd and frozen.
over all a decent effort w decent flavor.
interesting to see what the SV cooked version will be like.
stay tuned.
