Food sealers are the perfect device for any household that wants to save money by buying in bulk. They are also very handy for gardeners who have a knack for growing lots of fruits and vegetables. A food sealer ensures food is sealed tight and not exposed to air. Food sealers are generally single pieces of equipment. A person will need an electrical outlet to operate the sealer. Special bags designed for food sealers are also needed. These are generally sold in bulk rolls so a person can cut the length needed for each product. It is also helpful to have a marker or other pen to label and date each sealed package. *Set up the food sealer in an area that allows plenty of flat space in front of it to hold the weight of the food being sealed. *Using scissors and a ruler, cut an appropriate length off the freezer bag roll. It is important to allow enough space at both ends in order for the bag to be sealed properly. The instruction booklet will indicate how much room will need to be left at the top once the food is placed in the bag. Generally, a half inch is all that is needed for the bottom and two to three inches at the top. *Seal the bottom of the bag with the food sealer. This is done by putting the small end section into the sealer for it to be heated and sealed closed. *Place the food in the bag. *Seal the bag by placing the top end of the bag into the food sealer. Placement should be about an inch below the edge of the bag and one to two inches above the top of the bag contents. It is imperative the contents of the bag are not near the top. This will cause an improper seal. Close the sealer and activate the sealing process. *Once the seal has been completed, open the sealer and remove the bag. Use a dry towel to wipe off the area where the bag was sealed on the food sealer. *The bag can now be labeled and placed in the freezer, refrigerator or pantry.
