BENEFITS: These pouches are like a protective shield for your meat. Oxygen in the normal air surrounding us triggers chemical reactions on food and meat that causes it to spoil and allows freezer burn to form. The best way to preserve meat is to remove its exposure to oxygen, which is why vacuum sealing is so effective. If you don't own a vacuum sealer, these zip lock pouches are a great alternative as they still enable you to get rid of almost all of the oxygen.
- POUCH DIRECTIONS:
1. Fill your pouches with the food you want to store.
2. Zip lock close the pouch, but leave about 1-2cm of the zip lock open
3. Gently squeeze your pouch so that you get as much air as possible out of the pouch.
4. Whilst still (gently) squeezing the pouch, close the rest of the zip lock.
5. Check the zip lock is fully closed all the way along. This will prevent any oxygen getting into the pouch.
6. Store in fridge or freezer as usual.
HOW LONG TO FREEZE: Although frozen foods stored continuously at -18°C (0°F) or below can be kept indefinitely, we recommend storing processed meat (sausages, mince ) for no more than 6 months and fresh meat for no more than 12 months. We also recommend thawing frozen meat gradually. Thawing meat in the fridge is best, although this could take a full day.
