    I just can’t resist picking up a bag of little potatoes when I pass them in the grocery store. In just an hour, the result of the sous vide process leaves the potatoes tender and evenly cooked. You can eat them right out of the bag, they’ll be buttery, herby and delicious. But, if you have a few minutes, take the extra step to pop them in the broiler to make them crispy little potatoes. So yum!

    Ingredients

    Only a few simple ingredients are needed for this recipe! Most importantly you’ll need about a pound of your favorite small potatoes. You can use any variety as long as they are about 2-3 inches in length. For seasonings, I used unsalted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, salt and pepper. And finally, to fully balance out the flavors, a few sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme from my Aerogarden.

    How to make Sous Vide Little Potatoes

    Step 1. First things first, it’s time to preheat your sous vide bath to 190° F. While the sous vide bath is preheating, prepare your small potatoes. Wash and cut off any imperfections, but leave the skin on for extra texture and flavor.

    Step 2. After that, place the potatoes, butter, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper into a sous vide bag. Next, vacuum-seal the ingredients in a flat layer.

    Step 4. Once done, preheat the broiler to high heat. Then remove the potatoes from the sous vide bag and transfer them to a baking sheet. Now broil on high for about 5 minutes until they start to crisp.

    FAQs

    Can you overcook potatoes sous vide?

    Yes you can! Just like over-boiling potatoes, if you sous vide them for too long they’ll also become mushy or gluey. That being said, if you want mashed or super soft potatoes, you can cook them for up to 2 hours in the sous vide.

    Do I have to broil the potatoes?

    Nope, this step is optional. I like to have a nice crispiness to my small potatoes, and the broiler does that quickly. However, you can certainly skip this step if needed.

    Final Tips for Making Sous Vide Little Potatoes

    • Switch up the flavors. Like so many sous vide recipes, these little potatoes are easy to customize! Change up the herbs or even add a little bit of spice. Remember not to overpack the vacuum-sealed bag, but feel free to experiment with different flavor combinations.
    • Enjoy the leftovers. If you happen to end up with leftovers, you can store in an airtight container to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven for a nice snack any day of the week.
    • Perfect for entertaining. Potato sides like this one are such a versatile dish. If you’re having guests or looking for an easy side dish at a large family dinner, these sous vide little potatoes are exactly what you need. You can make a large batch, prepare other food while it cooks, and then arrange as an easy finger food. Set out all of your favorite condiments to add a little extra flavor. This creamy jalapeno ranch dressing is a great sauce for them.

    The Perfect Sous Vide Setup

    Everyday I’m asked, “what do you need to sous vide food?”. Here’s my answer.

    1. A sous vide machine.
      Option 1: “stick” models like the Joule, Anova, or Instant Pot Slim.
      Option 2: “multipot” models like the SousPreme or InstantPot Duo Evo Plus.
    2. Sous vide container.
      If using a sous vide “stick” model, you need something to hold the water the food cooks in, like a bucket or stockpot.
    3. Bags to cook sous vide food.
      Keep it simple and sous vide in ziplock gallon bags, or get fancy like me with a vacuum sealer setup.
    4. Nice-to-have accessories for sous vide cooking.
      – Sous vide weights to hold down food that floats.
      – Mini mason jars for desserts and sous vide egg bites.
      – Cast iron skillet to sear sous vide steaks to finish them.
    5. My sous vide cookbook with 100+ recipes.

    Hey, I’m Jenna Passaro.

    I develop easy recipes that can transform your kitchen into a restaurant – and you into a true home chef.

      

    Where to start?

    Learn the secrets to smoking tasty Traeger recipes and making pizza at home. And cook amazing tri tip steak dinners.

    Or, fall in love with something new to cook with your air fryer, pellet smoker, BBQ grill, sous vide cooker, and more…

    You’ll notice, I kind of geek out over new cooking trends and tools!

    My story. Growing up, I didn’t learn to cook.

    (I was actually banned from cooking for years)

    And then in my 20’s I didn’t have to cook because my job as an event planner involved a lot of travel and it was easier to eat out. At the time, I was 100% positive that restaurant food would always taste better than cooking at home, and there was nothing I could do about it.

    Until I fell in love with a chef. He would come over and cook me delicious meals right in my own kitchen. My mind was blown.

    Since then, I’ve been on a mission to figure out easy ways to make restaurant style food at home and share it here on Sip Bite Go.

    Love to eat out and travel? I can totally relate. See my guide on where to eat in Portland, OR.

    Never in a million years did I imagine I’d ditch the 9-5 lifestyle in my late 20’s, move across the country on a whim, start a new life, start a food blog, and write a book.

    But here I am!
