How to Juice Carrots
How Much Carrot Is There in One Cup?
Carrot Juice - With A Juicer - First scrub/clean the outside of your carrots well. If you’re using organic carrots you can leave them unpeeled, otherwise peel them – though, either way, peeled carrot juice will be brighter and sweeter. Chop the carrots to a size that fits your juicer chute and then begin to feed the carrots through the chute.
Carrot Juice - With a Blender - You’ll need a high-speed blender for this (we use a Vita-Mix), to easily break up the tough carrot pieces. Peel and chop the carrots into 1-2″ pieces, then add around 1/4-1/2 cup of water to the blender too (to help the carrots blend without diluting the juice TOO much). Blend it until pureed into a thick smoothie consistency. Then sieve the juice. You can do this through a sieve, using a spoon to help press the juice out. Alternatively, use a nut milk bag and lightly squeeze it to get the juice out.
How To Use Pulp & Carrot Tops - Don’t throw away the leftover fibrous juice pulp. Instead, add it to smoothies, baked goods (like carrot cake and muffins or crackers), broths, breakfast dishes like these carrot cake overnight oats, and other drink recipes. If you used carrots with tops (leaves), then you can make carrot-top pesto. The pulp is also freezable to use over a longer period of time.
- For one cup chopped, there are roughly 128 grams of carrots
- For one cup grated, there are 110 grams of them.
