How to vacuum package fruits without crushing them?

While fruits don't require blanching, some of them are too delicate to packaged with a vacuum packaging pouch in their fresh state. For larger fruits it’s preferable to cut them into smaller portions after they have been peeled. Smaller items like berries or plums may be left whole but need to be cleaned thoroughly with fresh water.

Steps:

Wash the fruit and dry thoroughly.

Pre-freeze the fruit by placing them on a cookie sheet and put them in the freezer for about 2 hours.

Vacuum package once frozen with any vacuum sealer.
