Vacuum Packing
Use only the vacuum bags and chamber
vacuum sealer recommended for sous-
vide cooking. Only this type of vacuum
sealer can vacuum pack liquids.
Do not reuse vacuum bags.
For faster and better results set the
maximum vacuum degree.
To guarantee a safe closing of the
vacuum bag, make sure that the area
subject to the seal is clean.
Make sure that the edges of the inner
side of the vacuum bag are clean, before
sealing it.
11.4 SousVide Cooking: Meat
• Look at the tables to prevent
undercooking. Do not use meat
portions of a larger thickness than the
tables show.
• The cooking times in the tables are
the minimum necessary times. The
cooking time can be increased in
accordance to personal preferences.
• Use only boneless meat to avoid
damages to the vacuum bags.
• For the poultry fillets to taste better,
fry them on the skin side before and
after vacuum packing.
