How to Marinate With a Vacuum Sealer
- 1). Plug in the vacuum sealer, and connect the tubing attachment.
- 2). Pour the marinade into a canister, which can be vacuumed. The canister looks like a food-storage container, but it has an area on the lid where the vacuum sealer can be attached to pull the air from the container.
- 3). Place the item you wish to marinade in the canister, and coat it with the marinade. There must be 1 inch of space between your food and the lid. You can marinade meats and vegetables.
- 4). Place the lid on the canister, and insert the vacuum tube into the port on the lid. Turn the nob on the lid to "open."
- 5). Press the button labeled "Marinate" on the vacuum sealer. The machine will remove the air from the canister for 10 minutes. Release the air, wait 30 seconds, and start the cycle again to remove all the air from the container of food. The machine will beep when the "Marinate" cycle has been completed.
- 6). Press any button on the machine to stop the beeping noise. Remove the lid from the canister. Your marinated food is ready to be cooked.
