before placing into cooking bags. Vacuum seal or remove air manually from the bag
before cooking.
8. Manual Air Removal - The manual water displacement method works to remove air from
plastic bags without the use of a vacuum sealer. This method is especially necessary
when cooking softer foods such as hamburgers or chicken breasts, when the food
product would lose its form using a vacuum sealer.
9. Fill a large plastic container with cool water. Prepare food to be cooked and place in a
BPA-free plastic freezer bag. Do not seal.
