Meaning:
A puree is a smooth, thick paste made by mashing or blending cooked vegetables, fruits, or other foods. It can be used as a condiment, sauce, soup base, or baby food.
Origin:
The word "puree" originally referred to a thick, creamy soup made by straining cooked beans or peas. Over time, the meaning expanded to include any type of smooth, mashed or blended food.
The Latin root pura also appears in the words "pure" and "purify." This suggests that the original concept of puree was linked to the notion of "clean" or "pure."
