Stages of cooking
-
Fill a large pot with water and place a sous vide immersion cooker into the water. Set temperature to 170 degrees F (77 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
-
Drain oil from tomatoes, reserving 1/2 teaspoon. Chop tomatoes finely and place in a small bowl. Add reserved oil, vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and set aside. Combine eggs, cottage cheese, goat cheese, heavy cream, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender; mix until thoroughly blended, 15 to 20 seconds.
-
Spray mason jars with cooking spray. Divide tomato mixture among the jars. Top with egg mixture. Screw on the lids until just barely tightened. Do not over-tighten as the jars can burst in the hot water.
-
Submerge mason jars into the water bath and set timer for 55 minutes.
-
Remove jars to a cooling rack. Run a knife along the outer edge of each egg bite and invert onto a plate, or eat directly from the jar. Let any remaining jars cool, then refrigerate for up to 1 week.
