The marinating function can only be used with the "FoodSaver
Marinator Accessory". This feature will not work with bags or rolls.
The FoodSaver
Quick Marinator Canister is the perfect
®
FoodSaver
Accessory for marinating foods. Foods will
®
marinate in minutes when vacuum sealed because the
vacuum process opens the pores of the food and absorbs
the marinade more quickly.
Important note:
Use the FoodSaver
Canister with clear lid and large white knob. To marinate,
make sure the knob on the accessory lid is set to
Vacuum/Canister position.
1. Prepare enough of your favorite marinade to fully
cover food inside a marinating canister. Always leave
at least 2.5 cm (1-inch) of space between the contents
and the top of the rim.
2. Make sure the rubber gasket underneath the lids as
well as the rim of the marinating canister is free from
food materials.
