Food and beverages can be preserved for later use by using a variety of different methods. Freezing it, home canning and dehydrating foods are 3 of the most popular methods. Over the years…I’ve used all 3 and continue to do so. Matter of fact, you’ll find hundreds of recipes right here on the TwoClassyChics blog.

I’m going to introduce you to two products that I’m currently using in my kitchen to preserve food. The BlitzHome Sous Vide Machine and Vacuum Sealer. They can be purchased in a money-saving bundle directly from Amazon. First thing I want to say is this…I have a good amount of experience in vacuum sealing food but using a Sous Vide Machine is something new to me. Hence, I’m educating myself on it’s use.
Today I’m going to focus on the BlitzHome Vacuum Sealer which I absolutely LOVE! I’ve owned 3-4 other machines over the years and none of them worked as well as this one! It has all of the bells and whistles you would want with a high-quality vacuum sealer. Let’s take a look at some of those features.
* One-Click Start
* Built-In Cutter
* 6 Built-In Automatic Settings
* Visual Digital Time Display
* Automatic Magnetic Lid
* Built-In Storage Area for Bags/Rolls
* One-Hand Operation
* Lid that Securely Locks
Now…you might be saying to yourself that you don’t need a vacuum sealer. Wrong…you do! You can use a vacuum sealer to prevent freezer burn and foul odors/tastes getting into your frozen foods like meats, fish and vegetables. You can use a vacuum sealer to seal-up those previously opened bags of potato chips, pretzels, popcorn, jerky sticks, breakfast cereals, bags of rice and/or pasta, baking chocolates, dried spices and herbs, and so much more!!!
If you take the time to properly prep your foods they will stay fresher for longer. You will keep them from becoming stale, freezer burn or worse yet…infested with bugs! If you waste food you’re throwing your hard-earned money down the drain. PERIOD!
I’ve been using the BlitzHome Vacuum Sealer for the past 2 weeks or so. It’s so easy to use! It does come with an easy-to-read owner’s manual explaining to you how to use it along with several accessories: pre-cut bags, a roll of bags (to make custom-sized bags) and a vacuum tube for use with canisters, bottles and jars. You can vacuum seal wet or dry foods and there’s built-in settings to guide you through that with ease.
Just last week we went to the butcher’s shop and purchased 3 months worth of meats for our family. That included pork chops, ground beef, chicken, roasts, steaks, etc. Once we got home we broke them down into smaller packages and vacuum sealed them. It took us less than 30 minutes, so you’re not in the kitchen all day long packaging up your freezer foods. Once you do one…you’ll breeze through packaging the rest.
In addition to using it for our meat purchase I’ve been using it for other food items. I’ve been resealing up our snack food bags, pasta packages, rice bags, fresh cheese and breakfast cereals. Let’s face it, no one wants to eat stale snacks or breakfast cereal! Ewww gross! No thanks! You can re-seal these types of bags within seconds when using the BlitzHome Vacuum Sealer. I highly suggest letting it sit on your counter-top, so that you’re using it on a daily basis.
Have I told you how much I love my new BlitzHome Vacuum Sealer yet? Oh my gosh, I can honestly tell you that it’s the best one that I’ve ever owned and used. It has all of the features that I need and is super-easy to use. You’ll find that you’ll use it a lot more than you think you would…once you have one!
Regarding the Sous Vide Machine. I’m still educating myself on this since it’s totally new to me. Look for my post in the next 2-3 weeks regarding that and how I’ve used it. I’ll link both posts together for easy reference once I’m done.
