guidelines When freezing vegetables, it is best to pre-freeze them for 1-2 hours or until solidly frozen. To freeze vegetables in individual servings, first place on a baking sheet and spread them out so they are not touching. This prevents them from freezing together in a block. Once they are frozen, remove from baking sheet and vacuum package vegetables in a FoodSaver® Bag. After they have been vacuum packaged, return them to the freezer.

recipes Fresh Meat Jerky Recipe Using Oster™ Jerky Seasonings to Make Jerky: Jerky may be made from a variety of different meats. When selecting meats for making jerky, choose lean meats with minimal fat, as fat tends to go rancid during storage. A lean flank steak or round steak makes excellent jerky.
