This holiday season we are trying to get the most we can out of all of our leftovers. So sometimes that means freezing things until we are totally ready to eat them. That is why we love to vacuum seal with our FoodSaver®. We can really preserve the food and keep things as fresh as they possible can be. Along with preserving food, we love utilizing our FoodSaver® and their Bags to sous vide. The Bags are really great for locking in flavor which is why they are perfect for sous vide. So today we are going to share with you guys a really delicious sous vide recipe for Creamy Lobster Pasta.
First, we vacuum seal the fresh lobster tails with garlic, butter, and tarragon. The sous vide technique for this dish is really perfect for this dish because it gives the lobster a really soft even texture while infusing them with a ton a flavor. The Bags are completely air tight and designed to hug the food so whatever you’re cooking will be cooked as evenly as possible. Get your own FoodSaver and FoodSaver bags here. There is also an iBotta coupon offer available to purchase your FoodSaver products.
