Flushed with the absolute success cooking [[Lamb chops|lamb chops]] in my homemade sous vide [[Slow cooker|slow cooker]] conversion kit, I think [[Duck|duck]] is next.

==Sous vide hoisin duck breasts==


This time I wanted to add some flavours to the vacuum sealed pouches and as [[Hoisin|hoisin]] works so well with [[Duck|duck]], I thought I would try that.  I also added a teaspoon of Chinkiang black vice [[Vinegar|vinegar]] as I love its subtle flavour and in may [[Tenderise|tenderise]] the duck a little too.  It is likely that most of the vinegar is likely to be sucked out of the pouch during the vacuum process, so to this end I used enough plastic to make a pouch that would hang over the edge of the countertop whilst sealing, hopefully to lessen the effect.
