How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose quality celery
- You should choose celery with bright green leaves, and both the stalk and leaves should be thick.
- Choose celery with round and evenly sized stalks and few roots.
- Avoid celery that has a yellowish color, with wilted and soft leaves and stems, or unusually swollen, as this indicates that it has been harvested for a long time, is no longer fresh, or has been over-fertilized.
How to choose fresh cucumbers
- Choose cucumbers that are evenly elongated, with bright and uniform colors, and feel firm and heavy when held.
- Fresh cucumbers will have a fresh stem, a layer of powder around them, and when bent, clear sap will flow out, with smooth skin.
- Avoid cucumbers that are bulbous or bent, have blemishes, are yellowing, bruised, or deformed, as these indicate poor quality cucumbers.

How to Make Celery Cucumber Juice
-
Prepare the celery
First, cut off the roots and any wilted leaves of the celery. Next, soak the celery in diluted salt water for about 5 minutes.
After soaking, rinse the celery thoroughly with water and let it drain. Be careful when rinsing to avoid bruising the vegetables.
Finally, cut the celery into small pieces about 1 – 2 finger lengths long.
Tip:
- Since celery stalks hold a lot of dirt, you need to separate each stalk to wash them thoroughly. Additionally, for vegetables used for juicing, it’s advisable to use a vegetable wash solution.
- Celery is high in fiber, so cutting it into smaller pieces will reduce pressure, making it easier and more convenient for the juicer.
-
Prepare the cucumber
For the cucumber you bought, use a knife to peel off the skin. You can leave the skin on if you prefer.
Next, cut the cucumber into small pieces that fit the juicer for easier juicing.
