Vacuum packing is a method of packaging that removes air from the package prior to sealing. This method involves (manually or automatically) placing items in a plastic film package, removing air from inside and sealing the package.

What bags can be used for vacuum sealer?
If you want to use your FoodSaver® appliance to re-seal, but not vacuum package a bag (without removing the air first) you can use it on Mylar type (strong, thin polyester) or stiff plastic bags, not any other types. For example, you can re-seal potato chip bags.
What is the recommended bag-content filling capacity?
Overfilling your vacuum bags can make it very difficult to ensure a reliable air-tight seal is created. We recommend that a minimum 10cm of empty space is left above the bag contents and below the opening seal level.
Do vacuum sealers prevent freezer burn?
Vacuum sealing provides food an air-tight environment, preventing the crystals that cause freezer burn from forming on your food. Vacuum sealing keeps the moisture in your food for an extended period of time, allowing you to enjoy food that tastes fresh months after you have stored it.
Can you vacuum seal ice cream?
“If you have a vacuum sealer, use it for this purpose.” Fredette agreed, telling The Kitchn that the added layer will help prevent some of the ice crystals from forming on opened ice cream and keep the air from drying it out.
