12  How it works

Here, you can find the ideal settings for various dishes

as well as the best accessories and cookware. We

have tailored these recommendations to your appli-

ance.

12.1 Vacuum-sealing for sous-vide cooking

You can use your vacuum-sealing drawer to prepare

food for sous-vide cooking. Sous-vide cooking is a

method of cooking "under a vacuum" at low temperat-

ures between 50–95 °C and in 100% steam or in a

bain marie.

The vacuum-sealing drawer is used to heat-seal the

food in a special air-tight, heat-resistant cooking bag.

WARNING ‒ Risk of harm to health!

Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low tem-

peratures and, if the instructions for use and hygiene

instructions are not adhered to, it may result adverse

health effects.

Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.

Wash and disinfect your hands.

Use disposable gloves, cooking tongs or grill tongs.

Take extra care when preparing critical food, such

as poultry, eggs and fish.

Always thoroughly rinse and peel fruit and veget-

ables.

Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards

clean.

Use different chopping boards for different types of

food.

Only interrupt the cold chain briefly to prepare the

food.

Store vacuum-sealed food in the refrigerator before

you starting the cooking process.

Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately.

Do not store it after cooking – not even in the refri-

gerator. It is not suitable for reheating.

Notes

¡

Use the enclosed vacuum-sealing bags for sous-

vide cooking. You can reorder the vacuum-sealing

bags.

¡

Do not cook the food in the bag in which you

bought it (e.g. portions of fish). These bags are not

suitable for sous-vide cooking.

¡

Position the items of food in the bag next to each

other and not on top of each other.

Vacuum-sealing for sous-vide cooking

1.

In order to achieve an even heat transfer and there-

fore a perfect cooking result, use the highest va-

cuum-sealing level to vacuum-seal food.

2.

Before cooking the food, check whether the vacuum

in the bag is intact. To do this, refer to these points:

– There is no air in the vacuum-sealing bag.

– The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.

– There are no holes in the vacuum-sealing bag.

Do not use a core temperature probe.

– Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-

sealed together are not pressed directly against

one another.

– Vegetables and desserts are vacuum-sealed flat.

3.

If the vacuum-sealing bag is not filled ideally, place

the food into a new bag and vacuum-seal it again.

Note: 

To prevent gases escaping from the food, e. g.

from vegetables, vacuum-seal the food no more than

one day before the cooking process. The gases pre-

vent the transfer of heat or cause the texture of the

food to change, thus altering how it cooks, as a result

of the vacuum pressure.

12.2 Fast marinating and flavouring

You can use your vacuum-sealing bag to quickly add

flavour to or marinate food such as meat, fruit and ve-

getables.

Marinating your food in the traditional way usually takes

a long time and is not particularly intensive. When you

vacuum-seal in a bag, the food's cell pores open. The

marinade that is added can be absorbed quickly. This

produces a more intensive taste in a much shorter

time.

12.3 Storing and transporting food

You can use the vacuum-sealing process to store your

food for longer and can benefit from additional advant-

ages.

¡

Due to the low-oxygen environment in the vacuum,

freshly vacuum-sealed food remains edible for

longer when it is stored correctly.

¡

The freezer burn is lower when the food has been

frozen and vacuum-sealed.

¡

You can re-seal food, such as jams and sauces, in

glass containers.

¡

The vacuum-sealing significantly increases the stor-

age time.

¡

Store food such as cheese, fish or garlic without any

unpleasant odours. The hermetic sealing that takes

place during vacuum-sealing means that no un-

wanted odours can get out and the flavour cannot

be absorbed by the other food.

¡

Sealed vacuum-sealing bags or vacuum-sealing

containers are the ideal means of transport for liquid

foods. They are easy to handle, leak-proof and

space-saving.
