Boysenberry Puree
Puree Process
The fruit is processed (heat treated and sieved) to remove the skin (and usually the seeds) of the fruit. It is then finished through screens to a specified consistency or smoothness. The pulpiness depends on the screen size used in the finishing process.
Purees usually retain the majority of a fruit’s acid, sugar and colour content.
