USE OF POMACE
Vegetable muffins
For 4 persons
500 g mixed pomace, 200 g flour,
3 eggs, 100 ml milk, 1½ tsp salt,
200 g mozzarella (grated), 1 TBSP
dried basil, ½ jalapeño pepper, finely
chopped without seeds (alternatively
a few splashes of Tabasco), 100 g
boiled ham cut in strips, 1 TBSP oil, 1
package baking powder
Mix all ingredients to form a dough.
Fill the dough into greased muffin
tin (muffin diameter approx. 4 cm)
and bake at 160°C for 25 minutes.
If you use a tin with larger muffin
diameters the baking time is extended
accordingly.
You can also spread out the dough on
a greased baking sheet and bake at
160°C for about 25 minutes.
Rüblitorte (carrot cake)
Ingredients for a springform pan with a
diameter of 26 cm
Even the famous Swiss Rüblitorte
(carrot cake) can be made from carrot
pomace.
1 egg yoke, 200 g sugar, 1 pinch salt,
1 pinch ground cloves, 3 pinches
cinnamon, 2 TBSP cherry brandy
When you remove residues, such as stems or cores from the pomace you use it
without concern. For example, together with the juice you can make jelly or jam,
prepare a pesto or enhance sauces. Pomace residues are wonderful for baking
cookies or fruit/vegetable muffins. Simply substitute the pomace for the amount
of fruit specified in the recipe.
You can also make veggie burgers. Simply use the appropriate quantity of
vegetable pomace instead of the vegetable specified in your preferred recipe.
Depending on the recipe you may have to adjust the amount of liquids because
pomace is either wetter or dryer depending on the produce from which the juice
was extracted. Several spoonfuls of pomace pep up any granola, simply pour your
favourite granola over a few spoonfuls of pomace.
You can even make parfaits: Add a little pomace to your favourite recipe.
Please note: The more solid the pressed material, (e.g. juicy apples or carrots),
the dryer the pomace will be. The softer the pressed material, the wetter the
pomace will be (e.g. tomatoes, grapes or berries).
Do you bake your own bread? With the UNOLD Backmeister this is very easy. For
example, for 500 g of flour you can simply substitute 100 g of flour with 100 g
of carrot pomace.
