Sous-vide cuisine was initially used in the late 1960s, as a safety measure to preserve and package food. It was then adopted as a cooking method by French Chefs Pierre Troisgros and Georges Pralus in the 1970s. Pioneering it to the popular cooking method it is today, used by food enthusiasts, Chefs and restaurants across the world.
