With ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE vacuum products you can keep
your food fresh for longer. Please note that vacuuming is not a substi-
tute for proper freezing, cooling or preservation of food. The shelf life
of food depends on many factors, such as the initial germ content of
the food, compliance with the correct storage and cooling conditions
and the required hygiene during processing and vacuum sealing.
If possible, dry the food before vacuum packaging. Always wait
for the food to cool down to room temperature before vacuuming.
Some vegetables emit gases in their raw state, which can lead to a
loss of vacuum inside the packaging. These include cabbage, beans,
onions and garlic. To prevent the formation of gases, these should be
blanched before vacuuming. Blue cheese should not be stored under
vacuum, fresh mushrooms should only be stored when deep-frozen.
