Fruits
When freezing soft fruits or berries, it is best to pre-freeze them
for 1-2 hours or until solidly frozen. To freeze fruit in individual
servings, first place on a baking sheet and spread them out so
they are not touching. This prevents them from freezing together
in a block. Once they are frozen, remove from baking sheet and
vacuum seal fruit in a FoodSaver
After they have been vacuum sealed, return them to the freezer.
You can vacuum seal portions for baking or in your favourite combinations for
easy fruit salad all year round. If storing in the refrigerator, we recommend
using a FoodSaver Canister.

Baked Goods
To vacuum seal soft or airy baked goods, we recommend
using a FoodSaver
If using a bag, pre-freeze for 1-2 hours or until solidly
frozen. To save time, make cookie dough, pie shells, whole
pies, or mix dry ingredients in advance and vacuum seal for
later use.
Coffee and Powdery Foods
To prevent food particles from being drawn into vacuum
pump, place a coffee filter or paper towel at top of bag or
canister before vacuum sealing. You can also place the food
in its original bag inside a FoodSaver
FoodSaver Universal Lid with the original container to
®
vacuum seal.

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 Bag. You can stack these 'frozen bricks' in your
®
freezer.
When you are 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 (170°F).
To vacuum seal non-carbonated bottled liquids, you can use a FoodSaver
Bottle Stopper with the original container.
Remember to leave at least 25mm of room between contents and the bottom
of the Bottle Stopper. You can reseal bottles after each use.
