Note: Bananas are an unusual fruit to juice. Peel overripe bananas and steam. You’ll have a rich banana concentrate perfect for milk shakes and exotic drinks. Make fruit leather out of the pulp, it’s tasty and nutritious.

Juices can be mixed to make unique and tasty combinations. Try these: Apple- Grape, Cranberry-Apple, Cherry-Apple, Raspberry-Peach, Raspberry-Apple, Strawberry-Pear, Plum-Grape, or Lemon soda-grape. Any fruit juice can be mixed with soda or mineral water to make a refreshing drink.

Don’t discard the pulp! Your Nutri Steamer lets you use every part of the fruit. Use the pulp for making delicious toppings, fillings, desserts, bars and squares, fruit leathers, and sauces. If you intend on using leftover pulp, make sure stems, seeds, pits, and cores are removed from the fruit before juicing.

Make baby food by blending leftover pulp into a smooth puree. Make sure stems and seeds are removed if you’re going to use pulp for baby food.

Applesauce comes easy from your leftover pulp. Place the hot pulp into a colander or food strainer and strain until the sauce is extracted. Either refrigerate and eat within a few days, or bottle by following standard cold pack procedures.
