What is strawberry puree

Look for bright red berries that are fragrant, plump, firm, uniformly sized, and with no white or green "shoulders" at the stem end. There should be no soft spots, bruising or mildew. The green leaf-like cap or hull should still be attached and it should not be brown or wilted. Always check the underside of the container to make sure there are no squashed berries or red juice sign of overripe berries.

Also, since strawberries are a delicate fruit they do not store well. If not using immediately store in a single layer on a paper towel-lined tray in the refrigerator for a couple of days.

Do not wash or remove caps before storing as strawberries absorb moisture. Immediately before using quickly wash berries do not soak , with caps still intact, so the berries will not fill with water which, dilutes the flavor of the strawberry. Strawberry Puree : Place the unsweetened frozen strawberries in a large bowl and thaw.

This may take a few hours. Once thawed, put the strawberries and their juice in the bowl of a food processor or blender and process the berries until they are pureed. Pour the p uree into a 2 cup ml measuring cup. Taste and add more sugar if needed. Try our Easy Strawberry Crumble. I am Joss, the creator and editor of In the Kitch.
