One of the questions that we are often asked in Le Parfait - Both on social networks and Iong - is the following: how to do it? How to keep? How to ferment? How to jam? How to open your preserves? And so on. We like to receive these questions because it shows that conservation is making a comeback and that more and more people wish to join the ranks of the cans. The attraction is quite simple: give your food a longer lifespan. In theory, it simply sells: cook, put in jars, heat jars, eat jars when you want.
But for those of us who start with basic skills in cooking (the five -minute routine masters "I'm just going to fry, eggs and eat raw carrots"), it may seem delicate. Where to start? What to do? How long will it take? Well, think about it this way: you just have to master the steps once, and then a new world of food possibilities is opening up to you. So, without further delay, here is everything you need to know to acquire skills that will serve you all your life!
First thing on the agenda: pots
To make good preserves, you need the right pots! This is why we offer different models to meet your tasty needs! Here is a brief summary:
The jars Le Parfait Super are designed to keep (and ferment) fruits and vegetables!
Terrines Le Parfait Super and Familia Wiss are rather used for cooked dishes, pâtés, purees etc. Their shape is perfect for unmolding them, and can be gone to the microwave quickly without their lid.
The jars of jams, as titled, are intended for jams. As sugar is the ingredient that will make the work of conservation, these pots are not made to undergo heat treatment!
