How to Puree

August 20, 2019 by Dinner Tonight

Don’t fret; there’s no wrong way to puree. Use what you have on hand and get smashing!  Below are some tools that can help you get the consistency you need:

  • Food processor
  • Blender
  • Hand blender
  • Potato Smasher.

Both the food processor and blender will get you the consistency you need the quickest.   However, the hand blender and potato smasher will also suffice.  The potato smasher will require the most work, but if you are willing to put a bit of muscle behind it, you can puree.  All methods need the ingredients to be soft before blending or smashing, so prep your ingredients and puree away.
