The main objective is to create a whole new series of industrially manufactured sous vide gourmet dishes.

Heat treatment or thermal processing of food is used in order to kill or inactivate bacteria, increase the shelf-life, or create products with an attractive appearance. Nofima is carrying out research into several thermal methods, and how to optimise them, from sous vide processing to food canning.

Healthy food that tastes good and is easy to prepare – this is what consumers want. Nofima is working with technologies and storage methods to ensure safe food that maintains a high quality for as long as possible.
