If you are quickly
trying to remove air from ziploc bags, but without the assistance
of a vacuum sealer, it can be a frustrating job to both squeeze
the air out while you try to zip - and usually with wet and
slippery hands! Fortunately, there is a quick way to do it.
Keep a large bowl
filled with water, or fill the sink up with water. Slowly
placing the ziploc in the water will use water pressure to
force the air out. Just be careful to keep the top of the
bag above the waterline to avoid any contamination of your
freezer meal.
