✅ The 3 Golden Rules of conservation
- Hygiene above all:Sous-vide does not sterilize. Pack very fresh produce with clean hands.
- The cold chain:A vacuum-packed product must always be kept cool (except dry products).
- The right machine:For long conservation, the welding must be perfect. Use a double pump machine.
