The holidays are right around the corner (tomorrow!), and with the holiday season comes a mountain of feasts. With all of those hungry mouths comes a lot of meals, and sometimes only one person is in charge of the food. And that can get overwhelming very quickly, which means over- or undercooking food is bound to happen with so much multitasking.

If you’re wondering what kitchen tool may save you some stress (and your food), then it’s time to buy a sous vide precision cooker. If you haven’t used one of these before, sous vide (which means “under vacuum” in French) is a precise, temperature-controlled cooking process where you vacuum seal your food and then cook it in water. This technique used to be for pros only, but now you can do it with ease at home so you can serve up restaurant-quality meals consistently.

The Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker Kit is an essential kitchen tool for cooking some of your family’s favorite meals perfectly, from salmon to eggs. And the best part? It’s on sale for 21 percent off right now, so you won’t want to miss out on this deal—that’s $60 off!

Using the luxe kitchen tools is as easy as it comes — with only a three-step process. First, you attach the cooker to the container, then cook per the instructions with the Anova app, and then finish it off by grilling, searing, or broiling your food.

Now if you only want the Precision Cooker and phone holder, Amazon has it available separately.
