THE INSIDE INFORMATION
ON JUICING
Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are an
excellent source of vitamins and minerals.
When you make your own fruit and
vegetable juices, you have complete
control over what is included.
Refer to www.juicingscience.com for
additional nutritional and fiber information
on green juices and green smoothies.
PREPARATION OF FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES
Fruits with hard or inedible skins should be
peeled before juicing, including mangoes,
guavas, melons, etc.
Some vegetables, such as cucumbers can
be processed unpeeled depending on the
softness of the skin and whether you like the
taste of the skin in your juice.
Fruits with hard seeds or pits must be
pitted before juicing, including nectarines,
peaches, mangoes, plums, cherries, as the
skin and pith can make the juice bitter.
Citrus fruits with thick pith or skin should
be peeled before juicing, including oranges,
lemons, mandarins, etc.
Trim leaves and wash vegetables to remove
earth/soil, including carrots, beet, spinach,
etc.
Trim, hull and remove stalks before juicing,
including strawberries, apples, pears, etc.
A small amount of lemon juice can be added
to apple juice to reduce browning.

THE RIGHT TECHNIQUE

When juicing a variety of ingredients
with varying textures, start with the softer
texture ingredients on the LOW speed
and then gradually change to the HIGH
speed for the harder textured ingredients.
If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or other leafy
green vegetables, either wrap them together
to form a bundle and alternate with more
solid ingredients for the best extraction.
Fruits and vegetables produce different
amounts of liquids, and can vary between
batches or at different times of year. Juice
recipes are not exact, so therefore the precise
quantities of any juice are not crucial to
the success of a particular mixture.
To extract the maximum amount of juice
always push the food pusher down slowly.
Allow the motor to reach full speed
before putting ingredients in the chute.
Pressing ingredients down before the
juicer reaches full speed can cause the
motor to stall or overload. Use gentle to
moderate pressure on the plunger. Lower
pressure produces a better juice yield.
USING THE PULP
The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit
and vegetables is mostly fiber and cellulose
which, like the nutrients in juice, are necessary
for the daily diet and can be used in many
ways. However, like the juice, pulp should
be used that day to avoid loss of vitamins.
There are a number of recipes contained
in this book that show the ways in which
juice pulp can be used. Apart from these,
pulp can also be used to add bulk to rissole
mixtures, thicken casseroles or soups.
Fruit pulp can be placed in a heat proof
bowl, topped with meringue, and baked
in the oven for a simple dessert.
When using the pulp, there may be some
pieces of fruit or vegetables remaining. These
should be removed before using the pulp in
any recipes.
Apart from consumption use, pulp can also
be used to create compost for the garden.
