Bright, zesty, and full of natural sweetness, this Carrot-Orange-Ginger Purée is as versatile as it is delicious. Thanks to your Premium Food Mill with 4 Discs, you can choose your perfect texture, chunky for side dishes, smooth for soups, or ultra-fine for baby food and sauces.
🛒 Ingredients (yields 4 cups)

2 lbs carrots, scrubbed and chopped (no peeling needed)

1½ cups water or light vegetable broth

Instructions
1. Cook the Carrots:
Add chopped carrots, ginger, and water/broth to a large saucepan. Cover and simmer until carrots are tender, about 20 minutes.
2. Mill for Texture:
Run the mixture through your Premium Food Mill, choosing the disc based on how you want to use it:
-
Coarse Disc → Rustic side purée with soft chunks of carrot.
-
Medium Disc → Smooth, spoonable purée perfect for soups.
-
Fine Disc → Velvety finish for elegant dinner plating or dips.
-
Ultra-Fine Disc → Baby food texture, ultra-silky for little eaters or gourmet sauces.
3. Brighten:
Stir in orange juice, zest, honey (if using), and salt. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
4. Serve or Store:
Enjoy warm as a side dish, or let cool and store in jars. Refrigerate up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
