Puree
Puree (from old French pure 'clean' , 'seven', 'pass', from late Latin purare 'clean' ), less often referred to as pulping, is the processing of food into a fine, homogeneous pulp ( puree ).
The most thorough method is passing , wiping through a sieve in which larger portions of the food are retained. Suitable foods such as boiled potatoes can also be mashed or pressed using special presses ( potato press ). Mortars and chopping knives are also used for pureeing.
Modern devices that make pureeing easier include:
- Lotte fleet (mechanically operated / "manually operated")
- Meat grinder (there are both mechanically operated and electrically operated versions)
- Hand blender (electrically operated)
- Hand mixer with hand blender -Aufsatz (electrically operated)
- Various other, mostly electrically operated kitchen machines
In the food industry, so-called cutters are used to puree food .
