About Purée

Purée is a food preparation in which an ingredient has been crushed, blended, or otherwise made into a soft, usually smooth mass. The catalogue gives no source food, so it cannot be identified as a particular fruit, vegetable, or other ingredient. It describes a processing form, not a single food or recipe.

Purées may be used directly as foods or as components of sauces, soups, fillings, and other preparations. Texture can range from smooth to somewhat coarse, and colour, flavour, moisture, and thickness depend on the source and processing. The name does not specify whether the purée is cooked, strained, seasoned, concentrated, or mixed with other ingredients.
