Carrot juice

Juice produced from carrots From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carrot juice is juice produced from carrots. The amount of juice from carrots is a low yield compared to fruits like apples and oranges. However, because carrot pulp is fibrous, the main difficulty in juicing carrots is in separating the pulp from the juice.[1] Methods used to juice carrots include mechanical pressing, high-pressure processing, cold pressing, enzyme-assisted extraction, solvent extraction, and supercritical carbon dioxide methods.[1]
