Re: organic carrot juice

[Guest guest]

Ro se,

I don't know of any legal brands of store-bought carrot juice.

It is super easy to make though. I bought an inexpensive juicer

from Wal-Mart. I just buy the baby carrots (saves the time of

peeling) and push them through my juicer.

Jody, why can't I put the baby carrots in my food processor? I suppose it would

be chunkier but if I run for a while wouldn't that work too?

You won't get carrot " juice " this way. You will get raw carrot

" puree " .

I will not have the consistency or texture of carrot juice.

A juicer extracts the fiberous parts and leaves just the juice.

Juice from a juicer comes out like store-bought juice in texture.

I have used the Wal-Mart inexpensive ones too. Right now, I have an Omega

Juicer, model #1000, and it does a MUCH better job. It also has like a ten year

warranty. You'll pay around two hundred big ones for it, but to me, it was worth

it at the time because carrot and celery juice were the main portion of my diet

for a couple of years when I was really sick and hadn't been diagnosed yet. And

you can get so much more juice from it than the cheaper versions. Your choice of

which juicer to buy might depend on how much you will use it. If I only used it

once every two weeks or so, I would have opted for the cheaper brands. I guess

it's like everything else you buy - you get what you pay for. 8o) You can get it

over the net, or some health food stores have them also.

Hope that was helpful.

You are right. You do get what you pay for, but my boys really

love fruits and veggies so I don't juice things often. (Lazy, I

suppose.)

But the cheap one I have does work when I need it- like for the

bright orange jello that I made for Halloween and Thanksgiving.

Carrot juice does wonders for making things a really pretty color

of orange.

Mine only holds about a cup of juice at a time, but it does work for

what I need.

So, your post was a really good one to point out that if someone

plans to do a lot of juicing that a nice machine would be the way

to go. If you plan to use one just occasionally an inexpensive

one will do the trick.

I have the Cook's Essentials 1/2 Horsepower Juice Extractor with Pulp

Ejection from QVC and love it. People make fun of me when I tell them

I buy from QVC but I have found that if it has the " Cooks Essentials "

name on it you can count on the quality. It's a bit pricey but it

makes extracting juice from just about anything a breeze.

Jody,

I was hoping that last email didn't sound snooty. 8o) I really was just trying

to help. But you're right....if you don't juice often, there's no reason to buy

something so pricey. I was juicing twice a day, then went to once a day when I

felt better. The blade gets worn down, and I have to replace it every so often.

But everything else stays in tip-top shape!

How does that jello taste with carrot juice in it? Never thought of doing that

before.

" How does that jello taste with carrot juice in it? Never thought of

doing that before. "

Well it wouldn't have come to mind to use for me either except

that my boys REALLY wanted orange jello for Halloween.

Orange juice doesn't make the jello very orange, more of a

yellow-orange color. So, I decided to try the carrot juice. I used

3/4 pineapple juice and 1/4 carrot juice. It actually tasted mostly

like pineapple jello, but it was this fantastic orange color. And it

wasn't quite transparent. It was really cool looking.

Now, to make red or green jello for Christmas... when there

seems to be a pineapple juice shortage where I live... either that

or everyone loves it so much it flies off the grocery shelves.

I think that 1/8 spinach juice plus 7/8 pineapple juice would yield

green jello. But the question is how would it taste...LOL. If I

manage to find some pineapple juice, I'll let everyone know if it's

good. Red would be easier using cherry, pomegranate or

cranberry juice.
