Pickling in a vacuum container!
For an even more efficient pickling process, pickle fish/meat in a vacuum container according to the
following description:
1. Position the appliance on an even surface and plug to a wall outlet, turn on the switch on back of
the appliance to ”I” (the signal lamps Sealing Time/Dry and Vacuum/Normal will go on).!
2. Make sure that the vacuum container and the lid are clean and dry.!
3. Put the raw materials in the vacuum container, but be careful not to exceed the maximum level.!
Put the lid on the vacuum container.!

6. Turn the lock of the lid to ”SEAL” position.!
7. Press the ”Marinate” button. The vacuum packing process starts directly.!
8. Press the lid with your hand at the beginning of the process to avoid air leakage between the
vacuum box and the lid.!

Preparation guide for various raw materials !
Meat and fish: !
To get the best result, the raw materials should be pre-frozen for about 1 to 2 hours prior to vacuum
packing in order to preserve juiciness and texture. If it is not possible to pre-freeze the raw
materials, put some paper towel between the meat/fish and the bag opening. Make sure that the
paper does not stick in the sealing.
Note that beef may have an even darker colour when vacuum packed, as oxygen is removed during
the process. !
!
Vegetables: !
Vegetables should be blanched before vacuum packing, since all vegetables emit gas during storing.
