Quick Squeezer Guide! Juicing without any effort

Pick your fruit. Go for citrus that feels heavy and slightly soft (but not mushy). If it’s hard, it’ll be tough to juice, and you won’t get much out of it. Make sure the fruit is at room temp. If it’s cold, zap it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and let it cool for a minute. Warm fruit gives up juice way easier. Roll the fruit on your counter with gentle pressure. This step really helps break up the inside, so you get more juice with less effort. Cut the fruit. If it fits, slice it lengthwise for max juice. Otherwise, cut crosswise and trim off the tip of the rind for better leverage in your squeezer. Place the cut side down in your squeezer. This feels weird at first, but trust me, it keeps the juice from squirting everywhere. Squeeze the handles together over a bowl or directly into your dish. Use both hands if you need to. Keep squeezing until the juice stops flowing and the rind is almost inside-out. That’s it! Super easy, and you get every last drop. #CitrusHacks #JuicingTips #KitchenBasics #Food #Cooking
