Dr. Bruno Goussault was recently named one of the 100 greatest visionaries by The Einstein Legacy Project in the fall of 2017. He is recognized in both the culinary and scientific world as “the father of sous-vide.” His work pioneering and innovating this cooking technique, which began in 1971, has monumentally enhanced the culinary arena for restaurants, as well as on-board services while also popularizing sous-vide for the home chef.
Goussault has trained many of the world’s top chefs in Europe and the U.S., including Thomas Keller, Daniel Boulud, José Andrés, Joël Robuchon, Mark Miller, Antoine Westermann, Michel Bras, Anne-Sophie Pic and the two late iconic chefs, Michel Richard and Charlie Trotter, on the application of sous-vide cooking. There will be messages from several notable chefs to celebrate Goussault’s birthday on International Sous-Vide Day.
Sous-vide is French for "under vacuum" which describes a cooking technique in which food is vacuum-sealed, then slow cooked in hot water. This cooking method allows for food to cook at a precise temperature to enhance flavors and maintain the moisture, consistency and nutrients, that are often lost during conventional cooking techniques.
