I just fell in love with cooking meat in a sous vide machine that was gifted to me. Boiling meat in plastic bags concerned me to no end so after much research, I opted to use reusable silicone bags for cooking the meat in.
Does anyone with more insight on the matter know if there are any nasty compounds I'm exposing myself to using a silicone bag in a sous vide water bath or even microwaving in a silicone bag as opposed up plastic?
Thanks!
- ficklepickle 7y agoI dunno about silicone, but with plastic you want to avoid plastic softeners. That's the real nasty stuff. Pure nylon oven bags are suitable. Keep in mind supermarket oven bags likely won't be pure nylon. I use the nylon bag material made for Volcano vaporizers by storz & bickel, because I know it has no plastic softeners.
