Egg dishes sous vide are prepared with the needs of a low-carb base in mind. Sous vide holds a precise low water temperature and cooks food evenly without drying it out. After the bag, a short finishing step is often useful: dry the surface and brown it quickly in a pan, on a grill, or with a torch.

The main goal is to keep the eggs tender and avoid a rubbery texture, so temperature and timing matter more than high heat.
