How Does it Work?


You put the food to be vacuum-sealed in one of the special FoodSaver bags, and the FoodSaver Vacuum Sealer removes all the air from the bag and seals it with an airtight heat seal. It doesn’t sound that incredible until you realize that most food spoils because it comes into contact with air. 
Consider these uses:

Vacuum seal whole bean or ground coffee for long term storage without fear of oxidation


Store nuts and seeds for longer at room temperature without them turning rancid

Seal leftovers and freeze for later use


Make large amounts of soups or stew, portion and freeze in FoodSaver storage bags
Vacuum sealers perform three major tasks. No surprise, one task is to remove oxygen. In removing oxygen, mold and bacterial growth is slowed down, and foods can be safely stored for longer periods of time. The second job of a vacuum sealer is to create a moisture barrier. This does two things.
Not only does it keep moisture in your foods, it also keeps excess moisture out. No more slimy meat. Lastly, the vacuum sealer creates a flavor barrier, keeping the entire flavor in and keeping unwanted flavors out. Vacuum sealed foods taste just as fresh and vibrant after a month in the freezer as they did when they were made.

To Seal or Not to Seal?



Do you want to marinate foods in minutes instead of hours? Are you looking for a low-fat, healthy way to cook and seal in nutrients? You might be interested in the Vacuum Sealer."
I know I sound like a commercial; I can’t help it. What might seem like an infomercial kitchen gadget fad is actually a method of long-term storage and low-heat cooking that is used by many of the top chefs around the country.
Some people are skeptical about buying one of these small appliances, but after years of frustration due to freezer burn many customers have given it a try and have not looked back. I love this device. It has saved me a ton of money especially with the cheese I buy.

Extreme Couponing!!

No, no I'm not referring to the crazy TV show :) But, if you are into saving money at the grocery store...a vacuum sealer machine will be the best coupon you've ever found. 


One of the savings that I am particularly excited about is being able to buy meat in bulk at Costco and then vacuum sealing and freezing it for later. Before vacuum packaging, I would throw away food due to freezerburn or excess. Freezer burn happens when the surface of the food comes in contact with air and dries out over time. Vacuum sealing eliminates the air, so now my meats don’t get freezer burn. I save money because I’m not wasting food!

Marinating Under Pressure

I like to marinate in a vacuum sealed bag because it speeds the absorption of the marinade and also dramatically reduces the amount of marinade you need. Refer to this post for tips on sealing liquids. Refrigerate the vacuum bag pieces to marinate.
As the vacuum sealer removes the air from the bag, it also opens the pores of the food, allowing marinades to penetrate deeply in as little at 20 minutes. No more marinating for hours. I just put pre-portioned meat and/or vegetables in a vacuum seal bag along with my marinade, vacuum seal, and I’m ready to grill in under half an hour.
