Puree Strawberries

To puree is extremely easy, especially with strawberries. What makes them unique is that you don't have to cook them, although it does help create a smooth consistency.

Instructions 

  • You should always wash your strawberries in clean running water before using them. Strawberries especially contain a lot of pesticides if they weren't grown organically.
  • Next, you need to hull them. You can either use a special tool or simply remove the tops.
  • Place the strawberries inside a blender or food processor and blend until you have a smooth product.
  • This step is optional, but we never skip it! Place the puree inside a pot, add your sugar and lemon juice, and simmer the puree for about 5-10 minutes. This will remove any excess moisture and help blend and even enhance the flavors of the ingredients.
  • Once fully cooked, remove the puree from the heat and allow it to cool completely.

Notes

Strawberry puree can be used in a ton of baked goods! First, it can be used as-is on cakes to help add and retain moisture or be used as a filling for cupcakes.
