Sous Vide Iberico Rack of Pork




Ingredients:

Rack of Pork (I use Iberico one because they are more tender and juicy)
Herbs you like (I like sage and rosemary for pork)
Minced garlic
salt, black pepper and olive oil
Gravy
Apple Sauce

How to Make:

1. Preheat water bath at 65'C.

2. Season pork rack with salt, pepper, olive oil and rub with minced garlic and covered with the herbs you choose.

3. Vacuum packed the pork and place the bags in preheated water bath and cook for 2 hours.

4. Remove pork from bags and wipe dry pork.

5. Slice up the pork rack per bones (like a pork chop) and heat up a frying pan. Seared and browned pork chops on all sides then serve immediately.

Serve with gravy and apple sauce. The pork should taste crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside.

Enjoy with a glass of your favourite white wine!
