Plum juice for the winter from a juicer

Homemade juices are an excellent way to preserve vitamins (a group of low molecular weight organic compounds of relatively simple structure and varied chemical nature) for the winter. I prepare plum juice in two versions - with pulp and without pulp. Why, then, do I use 2 different methods of making it. Plum juice with pulp is prepared using a juicer (or by hand), you can see its recipe here. Transparent juice of the most beautiful color is brewed using a juicer. Therefore, first, for those who have not encountered this unit, I will tell you what a juice cooker is and how to cook juice in it completely. And later, below, I will share a recipe for plum juice for the winter.

What is a juicer

A juice cooker is a system of 3 parts, externally similar to pans, which are placed one on top of the other. The bottom one, in principle, is a pan.

The middle one is a container for collecting juice. The center of its bottom looks like an inverted funnel. Outside, close to the bottom, there is a faucet with a silicone tube for draining juice, which has a clamp.

The upper part looks like a colander. Its bottom and sides are perforated.

Juice cookers are usually produced from two types of materials - aluminum and stainless steel. The best option is 2nd.

How to cook juice or how a juicer works

Ordinary tap water is poured into the lower part of the juicer. Then the middle part with the tap is placed on top of it. It should be clamped at this point. Fruits are cut into pieces and placed in the upper, perforated part of the juicer. This entire pyramid is placed on a slab. You need to place a saucepan or bowl nearby, the height of which will be lower than the height of the tap for draining the juice. The tube is lowered into this pan or bowl.

When the water boils, steam from the lower pan enters the upper part through the hole in the middle one (the juice collector) and the fruits begin to steam, releasing juice. The juice flows through holes in the walls and bottom of the upper part of the juicer into the middle (juice collector). When the juice level in the juice collector reaches the height of the faucet, you will see it in a transparent silicone tube.

At this point, you need to remove the clamp and let the juice flow freely into a pan (bowl) placed nearby. The first part of the juice is considered not very rich, so it is advised to put the clamp back on and pour the first batch of juice back onto the fruit. After that, you can remove the clamp and go about your business, the juice will evenly flow out and drain without the help of others.

Fundamental aspect! There must be plenty of water in the bottom pan so that it does not boil over. It is better to keep the fire moderate. It is not correct to think: more fire - more juice. That's right: the more the fire, the faster the water boils away. And this is unsafe.

In almost all recipes, when they talk about how to cook juice in a juicer, they advise putting sugar immediately in a container with fruit, and pouring the juice straight into jars. This option seems inappropriate to me. Firstly, it is impossible to find the sweetness of the juice in advance. Secondly, I prefer to boil the juice again later to guarantee its sterility, which means both shelf life and properties. It is at this step that I add sugar, and then pour the juice into sterilized jars.

Basically, everything is about the juicer. It's time to make juice!

Plum juice for the winter

Ingredients:

plums;
sugar.

Making juice:

We thoroughly wash the plums under running water. Cut in half and remove the seeds. At the same time, we check for the presence of worms inside. Place the cut plums in the upper part of the juicer.

Pour water into the bottom one to 2/3 its size.

We install the entire system on the stove, place a saucepan under the clamped tube and turn on moderate heat.

When the juice becomes visible in the silicone tube, remove the clamp and let the first batch of juice flow into the pan. Then we put the clamp on again, and pour the first batch of juice back onto the plums. She is considered bad. Although every time I have doubts about whether it’s necessary to do this...

Then we remove the clamp completely, and the juice will flow into the pan on its own as it accumulates.

Plums are a fruit that gives a lot of juice. From the full drain container (the upper part) I get at least 3 liters. plum juice for the winter.

Fundamental aspect! Based on the amount of juice released by the fruit, choose a container (pan, bowl) of the appropriate size!

Cook the juice for approximately 1 hour. In order to determine whether the plum has given all the juice or not, you just need to hold the tube with a clamp and see whether the juice accumulates in it, and what its color is. If it still accumulates, but its color has become much lighter, then it is no longer worth collecting such juice. There is a lot of condensation in it.

Turn off the fire under the juice cooker and place the pan with the juice opposite on the stove. You need to taste the juice and find out how much sugar you need. Bring the juice to a boil, add sugar, stir, cook for another 5 minutes and turn off.

We will pour the juice into sterilized jars. I already mentioned how I sterilize them in the oven in the recipe for apricot juice with pulp.

I put the jar in a deep bowl, under which I put a potholder or a cloth so that it does not slip. A bowl is needed in case the jar bursts or the juice spills past, generally for safety purposes. Everything is very hot, both the juice and the cans.

I twist the jars with a machine. I previously boiled the lids for the jars in water.

I turn the rolled up jars upside down, wrap them up and leave them to cool as is.

Plum juice is stored in a cold room during the winter and delights us with its taste and color, and also shares its vitamins with us.

Juice cooker - assistant in the kitchen

A juice cooker is a good kitchen assistant for a housewife who makes preparations for the winter. She will process a huge amount of fruits and berries herself, without the role of a housewife.

The mechanism of operation of a juice cooker is similar to the functioning of a double boiler:

The lower container is filled with water to a certain level and brought to a boil.
The remaining containers are installed on it: for juice and for fruit.
The steam softens the fruit. Juice begins to come out of them.
The juice is collected in the 2nd container.
After a certain time, the juice can be poured into jars without further processing. Plum juice for the winter, purchased by distillation through a juicer, is ready!

After the steam has removed all the juice from the fruit, pulp remains in the first pan. It is used as an interior for baking. The pulp can be used to create marmalade.

Plum juice with pulp

The harvesting season continues. And I’m still fighting another battle in the garden, now with a plum tree. I’ve already prepared compotes, jam, sauce, but the plums just don’t want to run out. Well, anyway, let's prepare the juice. I have associations with this juice from my childhood; next to the kindergarten there was a vegetable store that sold juices by the glass. After kindergarten we went into it and a glass of this particular juice was an indispensable condition.

Wash the plums, remove the pits and place in a saucepan. Pour in cool water so that the berries are barely covered, and place on the stove.

Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low.
Cook soft plums for 3 minutes, hard plums for 5 minutes. Then remove the pan from the heat and grind the whole mass through a sieve. But I don't really like having fun with the sieve. I use an immersion blender, beat it thoroughly and that’s enough for me.

Pour the clear juice back into the pan; if it is thick, you can add more water.
In other words, you adjust the thickness of the juice to your own taste. Add sugar, the amount depends on the acidity of the plums and your taste. Place the pan with the juice on the stove, bring to a boil, and skim off any foam that appears. Cook for two to three minutes and turn off the heat.
