Getting The Right Blend; Using The Pulp; Fruit And Vegetable Facts - Gastroback DESIGN JUICER PROFESSIONAL Bedienungsanleitung

• Try slower juicing action by pushing the pusher down more slowly.
• Do not overfill the pulp container. The pulp must fall easily and unhindered into
the pulp container.
• If possible, try different types of fruit and vegetables.

Getting the right blend

It is easy to create great tasting juice. If you have been making your own vegetable
and fruit juices, then you know how simple it is to invent new combinations. Taste,
colour, texture and ingredient preferences depend on your personal liking. Just think
of some of your favourite flavours and foods—would they work well together or
would they clash. Some strong flavours could over power the more subtle flavours
of others. It is however, a good rule of thumb to combine starchy, pulpy ingredients
with those high in moisture.

Using the pulp

The remaining pulp left after juicing fruit or vegetables is mostly fibre and cellulose
which, like the juice, contains vital nutrients necessary for the daily diet and can be
used in many ways. However, like the juice, pulp should be used that day to avoid
loss of vitamins. Some of the uses of pulp are to bulk out rissoles, thicken casseroles
or soups or in the case of fruit, simply placed in a bowl topped with meringue and
baked for a simple dessert. Quite apart from the consumption use, pulp is great used
in the garden for compost.
Note:
When using the pulp, there may be some larger pieces of fruit or vegetables remai-
ning. These should be removed before using the pulp in any recipes.
