What is a vacuum seal drawer and how does it work?

A vacuum seal drawer is a kitchen appliance designed to keep out oxygen and moisture, helping to extend the shelf life of food and dry goods. By sealing items in airtight bags, they help reduce spoilage and preserve freshness, whether you’re storing fresh produce, bulk meats, or even important documents.

How can a vacuum seal drawer help reduce food waste?

Vacuum seal drawers minimize food spoilage by removing air, letting you store sliced meats, produce, and dry goods for longer periods. They are perfect for both small households wanting to avoid throwing out unused food and large families who store food in bulk for future use, especially when paired with a freezer for even longer preservation.

Can vacuum seal drawers preserve items other than food?

Yes, vacuum seal drawers can also protect non-food items like important documents, photographs, and batteries. Sealing these items removes moisture and air, making them especially useful in humid environments to help safeguard valuables like passports and birth certificates.

How do vacuum seal drawers improve cooking with sous vide?

By using a vacuum seal drawer in combination with a sous vide cooker, you can infuse proteins, herbs, and butters before vacuum sealing, resulting in gourmet dishes cooked low and slow to perfection. This combination unlocks new ways to enjoy flavorful and tender meals at home.

Vacuum Seal Drawers

If you've never seen a vacuum seal drawer before, you're not alone. While they're not as common as a classic microwave or other kitchen appliances, they are just as useful when it comes to preparing food. These devices are made to keep out oxygen and other elements, helping to keep spoilage to a minimum. Whether you're cooking food for a week in advance or prepping fresh produce before it spoils, a vacuum seal drawer makes it easy to manage the task. And with these nifty versions that slide right into your walls or kitchen island, you'll barely notice them when they're not being used. Look for models that match your kitchen aesthetic in shining stainless steel. You'll find a powerful vacuum seal drawer made by trusted brands like Wolf, Gaggenau and others.

Why Buy A Vacuum Seal Drawer?

Vacuum seal drawers help to fight the battle against spoilage, making them perfect for households of any size. Slice up cuts of meat and store for days on end in the freezer, or use the appliance to help protect refrigerated produce for as long as possible. These near-perfect closing abilities help to keep the dangers of flowing air and moisture away. In truth, these appliances are great for any size home: if you've got a kitchen that feeds only one or two, you likely have to fight the battle against buying too much food and needing to throw out extra that you didn't eat—that's a problem easily solved. Maybe you've got the opposite issue. Large families need extra food and more storage space to put things. A vacuum seal drawer makes it easy to separate bulk foods and store them in freezers before defrosting and cooking them.

These devices are even pros at helping preserve things that don't go in the refrigerator, including dry goods like rice and sugar. The process of removing oxygen helps to improve shelf life by 4-6 times in certain foods like these. And when you get creative, you can even lock and preserve items that aren't foods. Things like valuable documents that you want to last, photographs, batteries and more. If you live in a humid space, consider using one of these to protect important documents like passports, birth certificates and more.

Combine with Sous Vide

A vacuum seal drawer doesn't just work to preserve—in conjunction with a sous vide cooker, you'll be able to create gourmet dishes in completely new ways. Add in proteins like steak, herbs and butters before pulling the air from the bags. Finally, let your foods cook sous-vide-style low and slow for a delicious meal unlike any other. With this combination, the most delicious meals of your life could be weeknight occurrences
