Place beef into the bag, along with sprig of thyme and black truffle olive oil. Vacuum seal beef and place in circulating water bath and cook until target core temperature is reached. Remove cooked beef from bath and carefully open pouch. Gently dry on paper towel to absorb excess moisture and sear evenly in hot pan or grill. Rest 60 seconds and slice. Sous vide beef does not require but a few moments to rest. Meanwhile, in a food processor, purée the red pepper gently using black truffle oil and season with Himalayan salt. Sauté the shimanji in black truffle oil and prepare the potato purée. Also cut the carrot, baby turnip and the asparagus in small pieces, blanch them and keep them warm. To decorate the plate, peel and slice the salsify. Roll it like a spiral round of a metal tube and bake it in 180°C for 8 minutes.
