Vegetable and fruit juices preparation
Fruits and vegetables intended for juice extraction
●
should be fresh and cleaned carefully. Vegetables should
be cleaned from sand and soil with running water and
peeled. Publications on making juices recommend to
soak vegetables for 5 minutes in water with salt and citric
acid.
Vegetables prepared in this way do not get darker during
●
the process of grinding and juice made of them has
a natural colour.
Berry fruits should be washed directly before using
●
because they lose freshness quickly.
The selection of vegetables and fruit depends on
●
the season of the year, taste preferences and health
recommendations. Nutritive values of vegetable and fruit
juices also depend on the way of preparation.
Juices should be prepared from juicy vegetables and
●
fruits, which should be ripe and fresh to get the juice of
an excellent taste and fragrance.
The following vegetables are suitable for juice preparation:
●
tomatoes, carrots, celeries, beetroots, parsnips, onions,
cabbage, cucumbers, black turnip, rhubarb, etc. For
dietetic purposes juices may be prepared from lettuce,
spinach, leek and other vegetables.
Such vegetables as radish, chives, parsley, dill and cress
●
are added to drinks in a finely cut form.
Fruit juices may be obtained from almost all kinds of
●
fruits.
Apples, peaches, apricots and plums should be scalded
●
in a colander after washing.
Remove pips, seeds or stones from fruits containing
●
them because they could damage the juice extractor.
Extracting juice from plums, blueberries, raspberries, soft
●
pears and apples and other fruits is inconvenient. The
flesh of these fruits becomes a spongy pulp which blocks
holes of the filter. You can use these fruits for extracting
juice mixing a small amount of them with other fruit or
vegetables and the filter should be cleaned more often
in such a case.
Root vegetables and hard fruits should be cut into pieces
●
which could fit in the feeding tube.
Fruits and vegetables are put into the feeding tube only
●
after starting of the juice extractor.
If the raw material gets stuck in the feeding tube or on
●
the pulping blade of the filter, use the turbo function.
If the above problem still exists, switch the appliance off,
disassemble it and clean.
Nutritive values of fresh juices is similar to nutritive
●
values of fruit and vegetables, however a part of fibre
is eliminated during the process of juice centrifuging.
that is why juices may be drunk by persons who, due
to complaints of their digestive tract cannot eat raw
vegetables.
Drinks from fruits are specially recommended for children
●
and elderly people nourishment.
It is recommended to drink a small amount of water while
●
drinking vegetable juices, which are very strong. If the
juices are not diluted, a daily portion should not exceed
a half of glass.
Fruit juices are easier to digest so they may be drunk in
●
big amounts: from 3 to 4 glasses a day between meals.
Juices should be drunk immediately after extraction
●
and drunk in sips. When drinking juice slowly, it mixes
with saliva which helps to digest it. Drunk too fast and in
excessive amounts, the juice is not absorbed properly.
Except apples, fruit should not be mixed with vegetables.
●
Melons should not be mixed with other fruit.
Juices should not be stored for later consumption.
●
Vegetable juices may be diluted with lukewarm boiled
●
water, mineral water, milk or whey, you may add sugar or
flavor them in a different way.
You may prepare low-alcoholic cocktails from juices.
●
Vegetable juices may be flavoured with fragrance spices
●
such as pepper, dill, caraway, nutmeg, thyme, marjoram
whereas fruit drinks may be flavoured with vanilla,
cinnamon and clove. In order to get a full fragrance of
spices, they should be finely ground before being added
to a drink. They should be used in small amounts in order
to keep a natural taste and fragrance of products from
which a drink has been made. Due to a low caloric value
of fruit and vegetable drinks are highly recommended for
people on a diet.
Fruit and vegetable drinks should be served in room
●
temperature or they should be cooled with ice cubes.
Salty sticks, crackers and croutons can be snacks to go
●
with vegetable drinks and teacakes, cakes and biscuits
to go with fruit drinks.
The juice obtained from certain fruit and vegetables has
●
a tendency to self-condensing. Such phenomena results
from the properties of used products and is irrespective
of the application.
