• hygienic: provided that hygiene regulations are
respected, this type of cooking protects the food
from the harmful effects of oxygen, thus ensuring
that the dishes may be stored for longer in the
refrigerator;
• organisational: thanks to the longer storage
period, dishes may be prepared well in advance.
• diet-related: this type of cooking limits the amount
of fatty substances used and therefore means
that the food is lighter and easier to digest;
• financial: the food shrinks less so there is more of
the product left after it has been cooked.
To use this technique, you must use a vacuum-
packing machine and the appropriate bags. Follow
