Sous Vide Salmon Belly

This sous vide salmon belly is probably our favorite thing we’ve made (ever) with the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker — and we’ve made a lot! It is so perfectly cooked and the flavor is an amazing balance of sweet, salty, and spicy. Salmon fillets will do if you can’t find salmon belly, but we really recommend trying to find this cut of salmon. You’ll be amazed at the taste and texture.
