The Ginnie Juicer is a versatile kitchen assistant, enabling you to extract fresh juice packed with vitamins, minerals, and energy. However, not all fruits are suitable for juicing due to their texture. This isn’t a shortcoming of the juicer, but rather a characteristic of certain fruits. Interestingly, these fruits can be transformed into delicious jams using the same Ginnie Juicer.
Let’s explore why some fruits can’t be juiced and how to turn them into jam instead.
Avocados are a nutritional powerhouse, offering a wealth of essential nutrients like vitamin K, vitamin C, folate, and potassium. Their creamy texture, however, makes them unsuitable for juicing.
Instead, you can make avocado jam. Halve the avocado, remove the core, and spoon the flesh into the Ginnie Juicer. The resulting puree can be cooked for 15 minutes until it thickens into a jam.
Mangos, known as the “king of fruits,” are rich in minerals like magnesium and potassium, as well as vitamins A and C. Their creamy texture makes them unsuitable for juicing, but perfect for making jam.
Peel the mango, cut the pulp into chunks, and put it in the Ginnie Juicer. The resulting puree can be boiled with sugar and water until it thickens into a jam.
Blueberries are low-calorie fruits rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals. Their small size and texture make them unsuitable for juicing but ideal for making jam.
Wash the blueberries, put them into the Ginnie Juicer, and cook the resulting puree with sugar and lemon juice until it thickens into a jam.
Cherry tomatoes are packed with nutrition but their soft texture and high flesh content make them unsuitable for juicing. Instead, you can make cherry tomato jam.
Wash the cherry tomatoes, put them in the Ginnie Juicer, and cook the resulting puree with apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and water until it thickens into a jam.
Fruit jam can be used as toppings for desserts, pancakes, waffles, or ice cream, as glazes for roasted meats, mixed into cocktails, or incorporated into baking recipes for added flavor and moisture.
Fruit jam can contribute to a healthier body in several ways. It does not contribute to the cholesterol and fat content of your body and can help maintain a healthy weight when consumed in recommended serving sizes. The pectin in fruit jams can improve the health of hair, skin, and fingernails, decrease bone loss, reduce constipation and diverticulitis, and help the body form red blood cells. Jams are also rich in sugar and a great source of energy and fiber, which can curb hunger and reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The Ginnie Juicer allows you to make the most of your fruits, turning those suitable for juicing into healthy juice and those unsuitable into delicious jam. With the Ginnie Juicer, you no longer need to worry about how to handle fruits that can’t be juiced – just make jam!
