INTRODUCTION:
The Cuisinart™ Citrus Juicer offers superior
functionality with an elegant design –
perfect for the home gourmet.
2. Juicing Cone with Sieve: Larger cone
allows you to juice a variety of fruits.
Sieve allows the juice to pass through
the pulp.
This powerful juicer is capable of
handling the toughest tasks with ease.
The Cuisinart™ Citrus Juicer has unique
features that maximize juice output.
A universal juicing cone works with any
size fruit, and will periodically reverse the
direction of spin when pressure is stopped
and then resumed. This two-way rotation
helps to extract more juice from fruit.
Placing the lid on top of the juicing
cone and pressing down activates the
‘Fast-Spin’ feature, extracting the
3. Juice Container: Angled container
allows juice to flow directly into a
glass or container.
4. Drip Spout: Choose the open or
closed position by pushing down or
up on the spout.

virtually eliminates the risk of the juicer
“walking” on your counter while in use.

TIPS AND HINTS
Choose fresh fruit that is firm, not soft –
it will yield more juice.
YIELDS
• Grapefruit – 1 medium grapefruit is
approximately 1 pound and will yield
about 1 cup of juice.
Always wash citrus fruit before juicing
to remove pesticides and residues
from handling.
• Lemons – Approximately 4 to 6 lemons
equal one pound and will yield about
1 cup of lemon juice. One lemon yields
about 3 tablespoons juice and 2 to 3
teaspoons zest.
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.
• Limes – Approximately 6 to 8 medium
limes equal one pound, which will yield
about 2/3 - 3/4 cup juice.
Remove all seeds, but leave in pulp when
using juice in baking – it will add flavor.
• Oranges – Approximately 2 to 4 oranges
equal one pound and will yield about
1 cup of juice, 1 to 2 tablespoons zest.
If a recipe calls for citrus “zest”, remove
zest prior to juicing.
BENEFITS
Freeze leftover juice in measured “juice
cubes”, using ice cube trays. Thaw to use.
Citrus juice is an excellent source of
vitamin C, but the juice begins to lose
its vitamin power after squeezing.
Fresh citrus juice loses 20% of its
vitamin C potency within 24 hours.
The best juice is “just squeezed”.
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.
There is no comparison between the
flavor of fresh lemon and lime juices
and their purchased refrigerated or frozen
counterparts. Fresh juice has significantly
more flavor than the purchased juices
and will make your finished recipes
more flavorful.
Lemon and lime juice can be used inter-
changeably in most recipes (margaritas
are an exception).
Grapefruits should have thin, finely
textured, brightly colored skin and firm
yet springy to palm texture. The thinner
the skin, the more juice.
OPERATION
1. Place juicer on a clean, dry counter.
Hollow skins that remain after juicing
citrus fruit are nice containers for desserts
such as sorbets.
2. Remove cover.
3. Place a glass or container under
2-cup measure and no higher than
5 3/8" under the spout.
“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 promi-
nent “navel” – their thick skins are much
easier to peel, and are generally seed-
less. “Juice” oranges have thinner skins,
and often are chockfull of seeds.
4. Make sure spout is in the open
position.
5. Slice fruit horizontally.
6. Place center of citrus fruit on the
center of the juicing cone. For large
and small citrus fruits, place palm of
hand over the fruit.
Juice from pink grapefruit contains more
vitamin A than from white grapefruit.

7. Press fruit against cone by using
firm steady pressure to activate
juicing mechanism.
Wrap cord using the cord wrap feature
located underneath the unit.
Place clean juice container, cone and
cover back on unit.
8. If you remove the pressure, reamer
may reverse direction once pressure
is reapplied – this is normal and
provides more even, effective
juicing. Squeezing the fruit while
pressing down on the cone will
extract more juice.

TANGY CITRUS SORBET
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Lightly coat
eight 6-ounce ramekins with cooking
spray.
Tangy Citrus Sorbet makes a refreshing
ending to a rich meal.
Place the zest, 1/4 cup of the sugar and
the butter in a medium bowl. Using a
Cuisinart® Hand Mixer, mix on low speed
until blended. Add remaining sugar, lemon
juice, egg yolks, and milk. Mix on low
speed until combined, about 30 to 40
seconds. The mixture may look curdled –
that is okay. In a clean bowl, beat the egg
whites with clean beaters/whisk attach-
ment until stiff but not dry. Gently fold
the egg whites into the lemon mixture.
Divide the mixture among the prepared
ramekins. Place the ramekins in a
shallow pan and add boiling water until it
reaches halfway up the sides of the
ramekins. Place the pan in the preheated
350° oven and bake for 45 minutes.
Remove carefully from the hot water bath
and place on a rack to cool.
