Delicious and Nutritious Breakfast Options
Breakfast and brunch options are a popular way to attract customers, especially if you can add something new and unique to your menu. You can create a lot of fun and exciting recipes out of leftover fruit or vegetable pulp. Baked goods are a great place to start. If you make a carrot-based juice blend, try collecting the pulp and turning it into flavorful carrot cake cupcakes. You can also use carrot, apple, or other subtle pulp flavors in zucchini or banana bread. Another popular option is to create homemade cream cheese spreads with the leftover pulp from your commercial fruit or vegetable juicer. Mix the vegetable pulp with seasonings like onion or garlic powder to create a savory spread. Alternatively, create a sweet topping for bagels and other treats by mixing fruit pulp with cream cheese and other finely chopped fruits.
The Perfect Starter for Vegetable Broth
Soups are a great menu option for restaurants and cafés. You can make your lunchtime soup specials even tastier by using vegetable pulp as a base for your broths. Tomato-based juices are perfect for this, but you can make a delicious soup out of any vegetable pulp with a little creativity. You can also freeze your pulp and thaw it later when you’re ready to make the soup, further reducing waste in your kitchen. The best part is that vegetable pulp from a high-quality juicer—like our Ceado ES-500/700/900 series—is bursting with vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other essential nutrients. By adding this deliciously nutritious ingredient to your broths, you create a rich and healthy base for every soup you serve.
Serve It up In Other Drinks
Juice isn’t the only fruity drink customers enjoy. One of the best eco-friendly ways businesses can use leftover juice pulp is by adding it to other tasty drink options. Fruit teas are a simple and delicious way to do this. Choose your fruit pulp, boil it with water, and add seasonings like cinnamon or ginger to create a sweet and delectable drink. This works beautifully with orange or grapefruit pulp from a professional citrus juicer. For cooler drinks, freeze your leftover pulp in ice cube trays. You can then add these flavorful frozen cubes to any drink for a tasty and healthy boost.
