How to make delicious carrot juice

Make carrot juice

Carrots can be juiced with the juicer or by pureeing. In both cases, the vegetables are washed first and if the carrots are not fresh from the garden, they should also be peeled.

Juicing in the juicer

1. Clean the carrots and cut them into pieces about 5 cm long. The size depends on the performance of the juicer.
2. Place a glass or the collecting container under the sink and start juicing.
3. Refine the juice according to your taste.

It becomes fruity with apple or orange juice, possibly with a little lemon or honey.
It gets hearty with tomato or celery juice and a little salt and pepper.
In any case, add a few drops of sunflower or rapeseed oil to the juice, because vitamins A and E are fat-soluble, so the body can only absorb them in combination with oil.
You should consume carrot juice immediately because it begins to oxidize immediately after production, which means that the nutrients it contains gradually break down. Even in the refrigerator, it only stays fresh for one day.

Juicing by pureeing

If no juicer is available, you can also puree in the mixer attachment of the food processor or with the hand blender. However, this type of juicing takes a little longer than the juicer.

1. Wash and clean the vegetables and cut into small pieces that your blender will also be able to puree the whole thing.
2. Add a little water to the puree, this will make the puree more mushy.
3. Pour the porridge into a large saucepan and add about half a liter of hot water.
4. Mix well and let it steep for 30 minutes.
5. Pour the liquid through a fine sieve and collect the juice in a second container.
6. Use a spoon to squeeze out the pulp in the sieve.
7. Mix the carrot juice with other juices according to your taste. Don't forget the teaspoon of oil!
