In the press
How parsley acts in the juicer.
- Yield
- Low
- Parsley gives lighter yield, so use it for flavor and green character rather than bottle volume.
- Difficulty
- Moderate
- Feed parsley with cucumber, celery, apple, or citrus so small leaves do not sit alone in the press.
- Texture
- Light green
- Adds green body without making the bottle heavy when the amount stays modest.
- Foam
- Low-medium
- Usually manageable, but small greens can create flecks that settle after bottling.
- Watch for
- Wet or wilted leaves
- Use fresh, perky parsley and avoid sour, wet, or collapsed leaves.
- Best order
- Tucked between juicy produce
- Sandwich parsley between higher-yield pieces for better extraction.
Choose · store · prep
Get it ready before the press.
Choose
- Bright green, springy bunches.
- No yellow or blackened tips.
- Avoid slimy stems near the rubber band.
Store
- Refrigerate in a loose bundle or jar with stems in water.
Prep
- Use tender stems and leaves.
- Flat-leaf (Italian) parsley juices smoother than curly. Use a small handful — parsley is potent and bitters out quickly if overdosed.
