Maybe now I'm being pelted with rotten tomatoes, because carrots are always on sale, and you can make juice from it at any time. Like, fresh juice is healthier. But it happens that there are no carrots or juicers. Therefore, housewives sometimes prepare carrot juice for the winter.
Since this is not food, but a kind of product in terms of storage, you need to approach this carefully, taking into account the features of this, at first glance, simple culinary recipe.
To prepare juice for the winter, we take young and fresh, but mature root crops. Wash the carrots thoroughly. We will clean it, grind it and extract the juice using a press, juicer or combine. Attention - do not use metal dishes! Let the juice settle, remove from the sediment and strain it through 2-3 layers of gauze.
Pour the liquid into a saucepan, heat the juice to 80-85 | C. And immediately pour into prepared bottles or cans. At the same time, keep in mind that you do not need to top up their edges by 3-3.5 cm and cans - 1.5 cm, respectively. Seal and sterilize at a temperature of 108 | C for 30 minutes. To achieve such temperatures, add salt to the sterilizer - 400 g per 1 liter of water. Additionally strengthen the plugs and lids with staples, so that they are not torn off during sterilization.
Give carrot juice to children and adults, especially those who have kidney, liver and cardiovascular diseases. It is usually drunk or with sugar,
either with honey or lemon juice. And mixed with apple juice, you will get double pleasure and benefit.
