INFORMATION ON FRUIT AND VEGETABLE JUICES
Freshly-made juices should be consumed immediately following their extraction to obtain maximum
vitamin content.
PURCHASE AND STORAGE OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
- Always wash fruit and vegetables before juicing.
- Always use fresh produce.
- To save money and obtain higher-quality juices, always use fruit and vegetables that are in
season.
- Always keep produce ready to juice by washing it before putting it in the refrigerator.
- Most fruit and vegetables can be kept at room temperature. Delicate fruit and vegetables, such
as tomatoes, berries, lettuce, celery, cucumbers and herbs should be kept in the refrigerator
until use.
- Do not use overly ripe fruit because it clogs the basket very quickly.
PREPARATION OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
- Fruit or vegetables with a hard or inedible skin or rind, such as melon, pineapple, mango, kiwi,
etc., must be peeled before being inserted in the juice extractor.
- All citrus fruits must be peeled be fore being inserted in the juice extractor.
- Remove the stones from fruits such as peaches, apricots, plums, etc., before inserting the fruit
in the juice extractor.
- A small quantity of lemon juice can be added to apple juice to prevent discoloration.
Suggestions: the juice extractor also gives a high yield of juice from oranges. Remember to always
peel oranges and all citrus fruits before inserting them in the juice extractor (we also suggest putting
the oranges in the refrigerator before use).
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER USE
When you make juice from different types of ingredients with different consistencies it is a good idea
to start with the softer ingredients and then subsequently use the harder ingredients.
When you make juice from herbs or lettuce you should press them together to form compact balls,
or mix them together with other ingredients to obtain a better result.
NOTE! Herbs and lettuce give a low yield of juice. This is due to the characteristics of the
produce and of the juice extractor. It is therefore advisable to always make juice from herbs
and lettuce mixed together with other fruit or vegetables.
Different types of fruit and vegetables yield different quantities of juice. The amount of juice varies
even between fruit and vegetables of the same kind, for example two apples of the same variety and
with the same weight can produce different quantities of juice. Given the fact that juice recipes are
not an exact science, using precise quantities of ingredients for each juice recipe is not a
determining factor for the successful outcome of the recipe.
NOTE! To obtain a high yield of juice always press the food pusher lightly.
