TIPS AND HINTS
Choose fresh fruit that is firm,
not soft – it will yield more juice.
Always wash citrus fruit before
juicing to remove pesticides and
residue from handling.
Room-temperature fruit will yield
more juice than refrigerated fruit.
Roll fruits on the countertop with the
palm of your hand a few times to
increase juice yield.
Remove all seeds, but leave in pulp
when using juice in baking – it will
add flavor.
If a recipe calls for citrus “zest,”
remove zest prior to juicing.
Freeze leftover juice in measured
“juice cubes,” using ice cube trays.
Thaw to use.
Choose oranges, lemons and limes
with smooth, brightly colored skin.
The best are firm, plump and heavy
for their size. Small brown areas on
the skin (“scald” spots) will not affect
flavor or juiciness. Avoid lemons/
limes with hard or shriveled skin.
Lemon and lime juice can be used
interchangeably in most recipes
(margaritas are an exception).
Grapefruits should have thin, finely
textured, brightly colored skin and
be firm yet springy to palm texture.
The thinner the skin, the more juice.
Hollow skins that remain after juicing
citrus fruit are nice containers for
desserts such as sorbets.
Sweet oranges make the best juice,
but you can make orange juice from
any type of orange. Sweet oranges
include both juice oranges and navel
oranges. Navel oranges are
identifiable by their prominent navel –
their thick skins are much easier to
peel, and are generally seedless.
Juice oranges have thinner skins,
and often are chock-full of seeds.
Juice from pink grapefruit contains
more vitamin A than from white
grapefruit.
YIELDS
• Grapefruit – 1 medium grapefruit is

lemons equal one pound and will
yield about 1 cup of lemon juice.
One lemon yields about 3
