General manufacturing rules

Pumpkin

A pumpkin for making juice should be ripe, with a sweet taste and orange peel. From an unripe melon fruit, the drink will not be so fragrant, or even refuse to stand at all, rip off the lids.

First, remove the pulp from the pumpkin, cut it into pieces and grind it in a blender until it is puree.

Often the juice is prepared with pulp, and it is the blender that helps to create a homogeneous mass - the basis of the future drink.

Orange

Oranges must be thoroughly washed, removed from the uneven surface of visible and invisible dirt, then it is imperative to pour over boiling water - it removes the wax deposit. Then peel the oranges, squeeze the juice from the zest, mix it with the pumpkin mass.

Other ingredients are also needed: sugar; boiled water; lemon acid.

The resulting mixture must be boiled for several minutes, checked for taste, add sugar or pour in another juice to improve the taste. Pour the resulting juice boiling into sterilized containers, bottles, close tightly - tighten the lids.

The cooled containers can be removed to the pantry, the cellar for the winter.

The juice is prepared without additives, using only pumpkin and orange. Prepared in this way, it will be reliably stored for several months. The inclusion of preservatives in the form of sugar and lemons will greatly increase the shelf life.

Juicer - assistant to the hostess

When the farm has a juicer, it is simple and easy to juice any vegetables and fruits. The mechanism provides especially valuable assistance in the processing of pumpkin pulp.

The juicer gives out a "live", well-processed mass, with the removal of large inclusions.

And how the hostess will continue to process and roll up the juice, she chooses herself.

The principle of processing the pulp is simple - you should pass the prepared components through the unit. Can be canned immediately.
