The Perfect Steak
Before you Begin
It is very important that you read this entire manual making certain that
you are totally familiar with its operation and precautions.
The Perfect Steak Every Time
Your new Power Precision CookerTM has unlocked the secret of the
world’s nest restaurants. Using “Sous Vide” technology, our culinary
engineers and acclaimed chefs have made it possible for you to
get perfect results at home, every time. With the Power Precision
Cooker, everything is cooked to its perfect “doneness”, meats, poultry,
vegetables, sh, seafood, even desserts.
A Different Way to Cook
Using traditional cooking methods, heat is transferred from a hot burner
or oven to a pan and then to your food, where it heats from the outside
to the middle. Using guesswork and a little luck you sometimes get good
results but often the food is overdone on the outside and sometimes
under cooked towards the center. The heat generated by a pan or air
inside an oven is usually much hotter than it needs to be. If you don’t
remove the food at precisely the right time results will be inconsistent.
With the Sous Vide method, using any pot or container deep enough
to hold the proper water level, you simply set up the Power Precision
Cooker as shown in this manual, place your seasoned food in a snap-
shut, slider or vacuum sealed food storage bag and place it in the water.
Then set the time and the temperature. That’s it, your food will cook to its
perfect “doneness” every time. Once cooked, you can leave the food in
the water bath until you are ready to serve.
