Here’s the easiest way to make a fancy puree like you’d find at a restaurant.
Generously salt some boiling water and add any vegetable of your choice.
Then boil until tender.
Once finished, dunk them immediately into an ice bath for about 30 seconds to lock in the color.
Then add to a blender along with a few cubes of butter and begin blending, adding just enough of your hot cooking liquid until you reach a nice silky consistency.
For the smoothest texture possible, pass it through a fine mesh sieve, then season with a sprinkle of salt and some fresh lemon juice.
Just like that, you can make any plate look professional.
