Re: berry seeds in smoothies

[Guest guest]

Alyssa..

The taste of the seeds don't bother me, but my bowel still cannot handle that

seed punch.

I juice berries, cilantro, parsley and lime and strain with a chinois and dump

into smoothie.

More time but well worth it for me.

The taste of the seeds don't bother me, but my bowel still cannot handle that seed punch.Neither of those bug me really, it's the texture! It's like drinking sand. Or in the case of raspberries, like drinking small pebbles. Does anyone strain out the seeds somehow? Godspeed!

I can’t stand raspberry seeds. I cook the raspberries with

a little water so they release their juice, then I push the raspberry glop

through a fine mesh strainer using the back of a wooden spoon. It takes

forever. It’s a lot of work. But you are left with a seedless raspberry

compote.

Check out the top picture.

These strain the heck out of anything!

I juice first and then put through the chinoise.

But you could cook a bunch and strain and have it for a couple of days. I would

add a squeeze of lemon to keep it good.

These gadgets are very pricey so I bought mine at a restaurant supply shop. I

have two since they are so useful.

When I make cranberry sauce, I run it through a food mill. It removes all the

skins and seeds. I've never been a fan of skin/seeds in produce, so even when my

bowel can handle them, I'll still remove them.

Put the fruit puree through a strainer to remove the seeds.
