Red Grapefruit Peeling Technique

3/27/2010

0 Comments

 
With citrus, the thicker the skin - the easier it is to remove the skin. Look for organic if your budget allows, and make sure the fruit is heavy and has thick skin. Thin skinned grapefruits have been on the shelf for a while and are harder to peel. Aside from the obvious reasons, it's a good idea to wash your hands quickly to keep the acids from ruining your fingernails/cuticles.

8 Kale leaves, 8 sprigs Parsley, 1 bunch Celery , 3 Oranges, 2 Grapefruit, half bag baby Carrots, 1 Lemon

Did you know it was common for our ancient ancestors to eat up to six pounds of leaves per day. Walking along from one place to another, just picking and eating leaves as they went. Can you imagine eating a grocery bag full of greens each and every day? Few of us even eat the minimum USDA recommendations of 3 cups of dark green vegetables per week. And yet, these veggies deliver a bonanza of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients

My Clementine

5 Clementine Oranges, 5 large dandelion leaves, 1/4 head cauliflower, 1/4 pineapple, 1 small cube freshly skinned ginger

In addition to being a unwelcome weed on your lawn, dandelion leaves are a spectacular source of: potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, and iron in the kitchen. They help the body fight off any bone ailments, decay of the teeth, and a variety of other prevalent issues.

Dandelion is very bitter, so you need to really go easy with your ratio to other ingredients. We used the very sweet Clementine oranges and pineapple to counteract the strong flavor, and bit of ginger to mask it a bit more.

Fresh Florida Red Grapefruit is one of my favorites - The combination of tart and sweet just can't be beat. In addition to it's many health benefits, Grapefruit has a fat-burning enzyme and can help to absorb & reduce the starch/sugar in the body. People who are trying to lose weight should drink/eat lots of grapefruit.

1/4 pineapple, 2 hearts celery, 1 apple, 1/2 bunch parsley, 1 red pepper, 1 bunch kale


Kale juice is high in sulphur, chlorine, and iodine. These are great for cleansing the mucus membranes. Thus has been very effective to help the relief of ulcers and constipation. The pineapple and the apple make this combination palatable.

Celery is very high in magnesium & iron content, ideal food for your blood cells

2 apples, 1 bunch celery, 7 carrots, 1 cucumber, 1/4 lemon, sprig parsley, 1/8 head cauliflower

The importance of selecting organic produce: Some items are more critical than others. My general rule is that if you are going to juice the skin, make sure it is organic. Doubly so if you are giving the juice to small children. Kids can not tolerate the same level of pesticides as adults without issues.

If you are willing to take the time to peel, then it is not life or death that you stick with organic produce, especially citrus or other very thick skinned fruit/veggies. Regardless, take the time to wash everything well. All of the ingredients in this entry are organic, except for the parsley.

A simple mix of 4 apples, 1/2 bunch of parsley, and 6 carrots. Parsley is an herb and very potent when mixed in juices. It is great for the blood vessels, kidney and bladder. When mixed with carrot - you have an incredible cocktail that can fight off many eye issues. I have the book by Dr. Walker, Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices. It describes the health benefits of each fruit/vegetable in great detail, and recommends certain produce by ailment.
