Liquid: !
Before you vacuum pack liquid, e.g. soups and bouillon, pre-freeze the liquid in a freezer resistant
container or an ice cube tray until the liquid is fully frozen. Next, remove the frozen liquid from the
tray and vacuum pack it in a vacuum bag or a vacuum container. Next, put the vacuum bag/vacuum
container in the freezer. Note that if liquid is vacuum packed direct in a vacuum container without
having been frozen, the container may be damaged and crack when stored in the freezer.
