Why batch cooking and vacuum storage work hand in hand

For many of us, we start to think about our goals and aspirations throughout January. These can be small and personal or larger lifetime ambitions- no matter the size, they will always be unique to you. For some of our readers, 2023 may be your year to focus on your health to improve your diet and to focus on your physic.

With the help from kitchen appliances and an environment that you feel confident and comfortable in, you can prepare your breakfast, lunch, and dinner knowing that you are retaining all the vitamins and nutrients from your produce.

Are you constantly on the go?

We understand that life can be busy, which is why we believe batch cooking and vacuum storage work perfectly hand-in-hand. By batch cooking, you can cook multiple meals at once and have them ready to eat for the week, and by vacuum sealing and storing them, you can keep them fresh for longer.

What is vacuum sealing?

Vacuum sealing involves removing all the air from a bag or container and sealing it tightly, which prevents oxygen from getting in and bacteria from growing. This can help keep your food fresh for 2-3 times longer than traditional storing methods, such as storing your meal prep in the fridge or freezer.

This technique is great for batch cooking, as it allows you to store your prepared meals in the freezer without taking up too much space- meaning that vacuum packing is ideal for larger families who have limited amounts of storage. Vacuum sealing also works great with fruits and vegetables, allowing you to have access to your favourites all year round even when they are not in season.
