Extracting juice with steam

You can use the Steam with pressure

° programme to extract juice from

fruit and vegetables. It is best to use

very ripe fruit, as the riper the fruit the

greater the quantity of juice produced.

Very ripe fruit will also produce a more

intense flavour.

Useful tips

–

Wash the fruit or vegetables to be

juiced and cut away any bruised or

damaged parts.

–

There is no need to remove pips from

fruit.

–

Remove the stalks from grapes and

morello cherries as these are bitter.

The stalks do not need to be

removed from strawberries,

raspberries etc.

–

Dice large fruit such as apples into

2 cm thick cubes. The firmer the fruit

or vegetables, the smaller it should

be diced.

– Try experimenting with mild and tart

flavours, for example, mix apples

with elderberries.

– Adding sugar will increase the

quantity of juice produced and

improve the flavour. Sprinkle the fruit

with sugar and leave to soak in for a

few hours before juicing. For sweet

fruit add 100 - 150 g of sugar and

more tart fruit, 150 - 200 g of sugar.

–

Adding herbs will produce a more

intensely flavoured vegetable juice.

–

If you wish to bottle the juice rather

than consume it straight away, pour it

whilst hot into hot, sterilised bottles

up to the rim and then seal immedi

-

ately with sterilised rubber tops.
