Or some custard that you want to get the air out of and cook in the jar. There's probably quite a few things.
@Kerry Beal Alright, I can't find that model from Henkelman's website now. Thanks about the jars, I imagined they should work but yes, may be tough to open. A bit of knife helps I guess though.
It's actually labelled Compact Gastrovac Pro - but Henkovac.nl manufactures it (and they appear to be some sort of subsidiary of Henkelman)
