The present disclosure relates to sous-vide cooking in an oven of a cooking appliance. A temperature probe senses a temperature of a water bath or the food in the water bath, which is placed in the oven cavity. The sensed temperature is used as a feedback input for a controller that controls a heating element of the appliance in a manner that causes the water and food to reach a desired final temperature of the food in equilibrium with the water bath, which in turn is in equilibrium with the air in the cavity.
