Food Preparation & Reheating Tips
Preparation Guidelines for Liquids:
Before you vacuum seal liquids such as soup stock, pre-freeze in a casserole
dish, loaf pan or ice cube tray until solid. Remove frozen liquid from pan and
vacuum seal in a FoodSaver
freezer. When you're ready to use, just cut corner of bag and place in a dish in
microwave or drop into water at a low simmer, below 75°C.
Preparation Guidelines for Make-ahead Meals,
Leftovers and Sandwiches:
Efficiently store your make-ahead meals, leftovers and sandwiches in the
stackable, lightweight FoodSaver
dishwasher safe and come with a custom adaptor. The lightweight containers
will be ready to head off to the office, to school or the great outdoors whenever
you are!
Preparation Guidelines
for Snack Foods:
Your snack foods will maintain their freshness longer when you vacuum seal
them. For best results, use a FoodSaver

Vacuum Sealing Non-Food Items
The FoodSaver ® Vacuum Sealing System also protects non-food items from oxidation,
corrosion and moisture. Simply follow directions to vacuum seal items using FoodSaver
Containers and Accessories.
Silverware
To vacuum seal silver, wrap fork tines in soft cushioning material, such as a paper
towel, to avoid puncturing bag, and seal as normal. Your silver will be clean, fresh
and untarnished right when you need it for your next dinner gathering.
Camping
Your FoodSaver ® Bags are ideal for outdoor excursions. For camping and
bushwalking, keep your matches, maps and food dry and compact.
Water
To have fresh water for drinking, simply fill a FoodSaver
when needed, let the ice pack melt. You can trim the corner off the bag to make
a spout for drinking or pouring.
Boating
If you're going sailing or boating, you can vacuum seal your food, extra batteries,
memory cards, cash, identification cards, boating license and a dry change of
clothes. Just remember to bring scissors or a knife to open the bags when you
need them!
Emergency
To keep emergency kits safe and dry, vacuum seal flares, batteries, flashlights,
matches, candles, first aid kits, extra food and other necessities. Your emergency
items will stay dry and organized in your home, car, boat, caravan or 4WD.
