Sous vide, which means "under vacuum" in French, refers to cooking vacuum-sealed food immersed in temperature-controlled water (at lower temperatures than say simmering or boiling).
The new menu items are available in two varieties:
- Bacon and Gruyere - Sous-vide-cooked cage-free eggs with aged Gruyere and Monterey Jack cheese, topped with a layer of Applewood smoked bacon.
- Egg White and Roasted Red Pepper - This vegetarian dish consists of cage-free egg whites with Monterey Jack and cottage cheese, plus spinach and fire-roasted red bell peppers.
