Juicer question



J

Guest
I am currently in Sydney where the latest thing is fresh juice bars. For an exorbitant $A6 you get a
large mix of whatever you want, my current favourite being beetroot (2), ginger (1 large root),
celery (6 stalks) and carrot (6 large). Also friends in Sydney now have their own juicers, and when
I go back to London in April I would like to get one.

Question: has anyone used the pulp that comes out of the back of a centrifugal juicer successfully
for anything? Maybe thickening stews or soups? Any other suggestions?

Thanx, James
 
Compost is all I can think of.

No, but I suspect it would make very good garden soil amendment or compost ingredient.

Yes. I've used it in baking quick breads and cakes. Zucchini and carrots for cake. Ginger in
cookies. Herbs in sauces (and strained out).

I have a customer that uses her pulp to make "crackers" in the dehydrator. She's a raw foodist. They
are quite good actually. Flavored with different herbs and spices. I prefer the ones flavored with
chili and cumin.

Yep, I've done the same. Only thing is I think you need a little bit more moisture in the breads
(Zucchini bread for example). They come out a little tough. kilikini
