Vacuum Storage Bags are for use in the freezer, refrigerator or pantry. Refer to
your Vacuum Food Storage System Reference Guide for instructions on how to vacuum seal
using pre-cut and roll bags.
Reheat
Follow these simple steps to heat foods directly in the bag:
•
Boil - Place sealed bag in boiling water, reduce heat and simmer food until warm.
For best results do not allow food inside the bag to reach a boil.
•
Microwave - Cut corner of bag to vent and place on a microwave safe dish.
Reseal Bags
•
Bags can also be resealed. Cut sealed edge of bag, remove desired amount of food
and reseal.
Wash and Reuse
Follow steps below to wash bags for reuse:
•
Wash bags in warm, soapy water.
•
Bags can be washed in the dishwasher if desired. Turn bags inside out and spread
them over the top rack.
•
Allow bags to dry completely before reusing.
NOTE: DO NOT reuse bags if they have been used to store raw meats, oily foods,
fish, or have been boiled or microwaved.
PREPARE MEALS IN ADVANCE
•
Prepare large quantities of food, and then divide into smaller portions that work for you
and your family. Seal in bags for tomorrow, next week, next month, etc.
BUY IN BULK
•
Save money by purchasing food in bulk and vacuum sealing into smaller portions for
later use.
KEEP LEFTOVERS AS FRESH AS THE DAY THEY WERE PREPARED
•
After dinner, store leftovers in a Seal-a-Meal
®
bag, and keep in refrigerator or freezer for a
later date.
