What does PUREE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A smooth, thick mixture made by mashing or blending cooked fruit, vegetables, or other soft food until no lumps remain.
Cooks make a puree by pressing or blending softened ingredients, such as boiled potatoes or roasted tomatoes, through a sieve or food processor until the texture turns completely smooth. A puree often forms the base of soups and sauces, and it is also the standard first food given to babies because it requires no chewing. The same word works as a verb, so a cook might simply puree the carrots rather than mash them by hand. French kitchens popularized both the word and the technique, and puree has since become standard in English-language cookbooks.
How PUREE is used
Common in cooking both as a noun for the finished mixture and as a verb meaning to blend food smooth.
