Sometimes it becomes necessary to drink carrot juice (for example, the doctor prescribed or decided to enrich the body with vitamins), but there is no juicer, and now this useful device is not cheap. So ? Easily!
My carrots, clean, and rub on the smallest grater that can be found in the house. Then we put it on clean gauze (preferably in two or three layers), make a "bag" and wring it out. The most useful vitamin juice is ready!
Unfortunately, there is no way to say exactly how much carrots will juice how much. Here too much depends on the freshness and juiciness of the root crop. If just from the garden - the amount of liquid will be the maximum, from the carrots bought in the store at the end of winter - much less (and such juice will not be so rich in vitamins).
By the way, it is not at all necessary to throw out the product remaining after spinning. It can be sautéed in butter and added to soup or broth (you can also use it fresh in chicken), use for making carrot pancakes or put in minced meat. In general, this "waste" is suitable for almost any dish where grated carrots go.
If you get too much, it's okay. Fold in a bag and place in the freezer. Use it for the same purposes later.
As you can see, the juicer is cool and fast, but it is quite possible to do without it.
You can juice other vegetables in the same way. For example, beets (a nasty thing, but, they say, terribly useful) or radish (with honey for colds). And also from hard fruits (apples, pears).
Now you know exactly how to make carrot juice without a juicer, as well as other, equally useful juices. Good luck!

I add 100 ml of apple juice to each serving. You can sweeten it with sugar, but I don't - homemade carrots are very sweet. The last time I made a drink with children's apple-peach juice, you can clearly see this in the main photo.
After juicing, a lot of juicy enough pulp remains. It can be used in a variety of culinary delights:

Any kind of grinding or pressure.
The household usually has a grater, blender or meat grinder.
Grind, grind, push. Then collect in a multilayer gauze, make a bag and twist until the whole mass is compressed and the juice ceases to stand out. Knock on the bag with a crush, squeeze again and so on until the juice ceases to stand out. Drink or freeze the juice. Pour what is left of the carrots into the soup. There remained from 30 to 50 percent of the juice, which can only be extracted by extraction, so there is enough for the soup, and the ballast substances have not harmed anyone yet. Gauze, if intact, wash with soap and water and remove separately - it will remain yellow.
Juicers are still not in every home. But people make freshly squeezed juices for children, squeeze them out to adult family members. And someone needs fresh juice for a diet or treatment.
Better to use a fine grater.
In order to make carrot juice at home, it is enough to have a grater and cheesecloth. On the fine edge of the grater, grate the carrots, and then squeeze through three or four layers of gauze. This is the most affordable solution.
You can use a meat grinder, food processor. chop the carrots on the smallest wire rack and then squeeze them through several layers of gauze.
If you have a blender, use it.
You can squeeze the chopped carrots (if they are juicy) to get juice through a fine strainer.
Carrot juice is known to be a storehouse of provitamin A - beta-carotene. Preparing carrot juice without a juicer is not easy, but possible.
To do this, I will cleanly wash the carrots and rub them on a fine grater by hand. Then I will fold the gauze in several layers and squeeze the resulting carrot gruel in portions. The juice will drain into the deep bowl provided.
Of course, with such an artisanal method (in our age of mechanisms) for preparing carrot juice, hands must first be washed well with soap.
I don't throw away the carrot gruel: it is useful for making carrot patties or curd-carrot casserole.
Carrot juice is very beneficial for human immunity, it has antiviral properties because it is rich in vitamins and minerals. In addition, the drink is great for people who want to lose those extra pounds. The most elementary thing in its preparation is, of course, to use a juicer, but if it is not there, then it is quite possible to use a regular grater. The smaller the holes, the better. We rub two or three large root crops in a small bowl, preferably not a metal one, and then the resulting mass must be squeezed out with gauze or a fine strainer. The pulp remaining after the release of the juice can be used in the preparation of soup and main courses, or frozen for the future.

Carrot juice is ahead of all other juices in terms of the amount of nutrients, in addition, it has a pleasant taste, due to the sugars that make up the composition. First of all, carrots are a source of beta-carotene, also known as vitamin A. This miracle vitamin improves the condition of the skin, eyesight, bones and teeth, and strengthens the immune system. In addition to carotene, the drink also contains other vitamins, such as vitamin E, which is very beneficial for women's health and reproductive function. Carrot juice is known to be good for pregnant women, and it also improves breast milk. The mineral composition of the drink is also full of miracles, here and calcium, and manganese, and phosphorus, and iron, and zinc, but in the first place is magnesium. Carrot juice supplies the body with natural magnesium, and, accordingly, improves the state of the nervous system, gives a feeling of calm, smooths out the signs of overexcitation. Plus, magnesium reduces bad cholesterol levels.
Of course, it is most beneficial to use freshly squeezed carrot juice, but it is very difficult to preserve an ecologically clean root crop from the garden until winter, and a drink from a carrot purchased in a store will bring dubious benefits. That is why, despite the availability of all vegetables in the winter, the preservation of juices does not lose its popularity.
To harvest carrot juice, you need to have an idea of two canning methods: pasteurization and hot filling. During pasteurization, the workpiece is heated almost to the boiling point over low heat (the main thing is that the juice does not boil, then some of the vitamins will disappear), and then it is poured into sterilized jars, and then already full, but not to the brim, jars covered with lids are pasteurized using a water bath at a temperature of about 90 ° C, the duration of the procedure depends on the volume of the can, sometimes pasteurization of full cans is replaced by sterilization, then the water in a saucepan with cans is brought to a boil, but not intense, and the process itself is reduced. Nowadays, the hot filling method is more popular, because it is faster and does not require additional equipment: the workpiece must be heated, then boiled over low heat, then immediately poured into sterile jars and hermetically sealed, turned upside down and left to cool.
The juice does not contain a large amount of sugar and does not undergo a long boiling like jam, so the difficulty is not how to prepare it, but how to preserve it, preventing the development of harmful flora inside the jar, this should be the main focus. You should leave the rolled up drink for a week in the dark at room temperature, during which time the low-quality juice will "show" itself, it will become cloudy, and signs of fermentation will appear. It is better not to store a canned product for more than a year. Before use, you must make sure that everything is in order with the preparation, that the lid is not swollen, that it has a normal color and consistency, if the canned juice is suspicious, then it should not be consumed, it is very dangerous to health.

This dual juice delivers an unparalleled combination of taste and health. Apple vitamins and microelements are added to carrot carotene - vitamin C for immunity, iron for enriching the blood with oxygen and magnesium for stress and bone flexibility. No wonder the British argue that an apple a day - and a doctor is not needed, and a glass of juice contains more than one apple. When preserving this juice, pasteurization is used, so it retains the maximum amount of nutrients.
The amount of ingredients is very approximate, it depends on how juicy the apples and carrots are, as a result, four times more apple juice is obtained than carrot juice, but these proportions can be changed
If pasteurization is in doubt, then you can boil the juice for five minutes, then pour it directly into sterile jars while hot, any cooking process leaves fewer vitamins in the juice, but gives more guarantees for its safety.
