SOUS VIDE POACHED PEARS
A light and refreshing dessert that you can fix and forget until ready to serve. This can be doubled, but I suggest using one bag per pear. I generally serve this with a scoop of ice cream.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with warm water, leaving 3 inches of head room. Attach the sous vide to the pot and set the temperature to 175 F degrees (80 degrees C) and timer to 1 hour.
- Peel pear and halve lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds using a small spoon. Place pear halves into a resealable or silicone bag and add butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Remove all air from the bag and immerse the bag into the water, making sure that the top does not go below water. Leave in the water for 1 hour.
- Remove the bag when time is up and place pears on dessert plates. Drizzle with cooking liquid.

BUTTERY SPICED SOUS-VIDE APPLES
Steps:
- Fill sous-vide cooker with hot water and heat to 170 degrees. Place lemon zest in a bowl. In another bowl, place apples. If using large apples, cut in half. Cut lemon and squeeze juice over apples, turning to coat.
- To bowl with lemon zest, add butter, salt, spices, sugar and raisins; mix together. Divide mixture among apples, packing it into hollowed core. If using apple halves, rub mixture all over them.
- Place two apples in a sealable plastic bag, and seal it after removing as much air as possible; try squeezing most of it out and then carefully sucking out the rest with a straw as you seal the bag. Or, seal apples in plastic with a FoodSaver or similar vacuum device. Repeat with remaining apples. (For sous-vide cooking at home, a complete vacuum seal is not necessary if food will be served immediately after cooking.)
- Place plastic bags in sous-vide chamber, making sure they are submerged in hot water. Cook at least 2 hours. Food may remain in cooker for up to 2 additional hours; it will not cook any further. When opening bags, be careful as juices will be hot. Serve apples in bowls, topped with crème fraîche, whipped cream or ice cream.
