Here is some additional information on VACUUM COOKING, obtained from the first site mentioned above:

There is a futuristic cooking method called the vacuum method that seals the food in a plastic bag which allows it to be cooked at much lower temperatures. This helps to preserve the natural taste of the food. It was originally designed to be used with foie gras in French cuisine. In the 70s there was controversy over the cooking methods of foie gras, the feeling being that pan frying used too high a heat and destroyed many of the flavor elements of the foie gras. And so the vacuum method was born.
