Preparation Guidelines for Fruits:
When freezing soft fruits or berries, it is best to pre-freeze them for 1-2 hours or
until solidly frozen. To freeze fruit in individual servings, first place on a baking
sheet and spread them out so they are not touching. This prevents them from
freezing together in a block. Once they are frozen, remove from baking sheet
and vacuum seal fruit in a FoodSaver
®
Bag. After they have been vacuum sealed,
return them to the freezer.
You can vacuum seal portions for baking or in your favorite combinations for
easy fruit salad all year round. If storing in the refrigerator, we recommend using
a FoodSaver
® Canister.
Preparation Guidelines
for Baked Goods:
To vacuum seal soft or airy baked goods, we recommend using a FoodSaver
®
Canister so they will hold their shape. If using a bag, pre-freeze for 1-2 hours or
until solidly frozen. To save time, make cookie dough, pie shells, whole pies, or
mix dry ingredients in advance and vacuum seal for later use.
Preparation Guidelines for
Coffee and Powdery Foods:
To prevent food particles from being drawn into vacuum pump, place a coffee
filter or paper towel at top of bag or canister before vacuum sealing. You can also
place the food in its original bag inside a FoodSaver
® Bag, or use a FoodSaver ®
Universal Lid with the original container to vacuum seal.
