Method: Wash, quarter,add one liter of water, cook until soft about 30 minutes.Beat into a slurry with hand blender. Strain with screen mesh to remove seeds. Place juice in 7 one liter jars. Place in pressure cooker and cook at 15 PSI for 15 minutes for storage at room temperature.

Do you ever make paste?
The slurry is close to paste. I just drink it depending somewhat on the amount of water added. I sometimes use it as a base for vegetable soup. It makes far superior juice to drink. Far better than the commercial product IMO. I never add products to the basic plant product except water as necessary to make drinkable.
