BLENDING/JUICING TIPS AND HINTS
• When blending, choose the ripest fruits for maximum flavour.
• Add fresh herbs, like mint and parsley, to juices and smoothies for added
flavor and a boost of health benefits.
• Add a squeeze of citrus to juices and smoothies to brighten flavours.
• When blending vegetables for juice, steam hard vegetables, like carrots,
for a smoother consistency. Steam vegetables in bulk to have on hand.
• Juices may be strained through a fine-mesh strainer for a thinner consis-
tency. Serving as is, however, is recommended to benefit from the fiber
found in the pulp and skin of fruits and vegetables.
• Juices and smoothies will separate if not served right away. Re-blend
before serving or strain to simply enjoy the juice.
• For a thinner juice consistency, add 1/4 cup (60 ml) water to recipes.
• Serve juices over ice.
• Fruit juices may be used as a natural sweetener in recipes.
