Set the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker to 180°F (82.2°C).

Transfer mixture to a second large zipper lock bag. Seal the bag using the water immersion technique and place in the water bath. Set the timer for 1 hour. Agitate the bag several times throughout the cooking process to prevent clumps from forming.
