A user asks our chef about the cooking time and temperature for preparing lamb sweetbreads in the sous-vide.
To vacuum-cook lamb sweetbreads, certain points must be taken into consideration.
Prior considerations
The sweetbreads must first be washed in water with salt to purify them. They must then be bleached; that is, boiled in water and salt and then cooled quickly. They will then be ready to cook under vacuum and low temperature.
Benefits of sous-vide for cooking lamb sweetbreads
The vacuum and the low temperature provides the sweetbreads a very fine and delicate texture. At the same time, they are aromatised and they turn out with a different, more personalised touch.
Cooking time and temperature
As a general recommendation, cook the lamb sweetbreads in a sous-vide at 65ºC for 2.5 hours.
