How to Thicken and Flavor Pureed Foods

Pureed Fruits
Mix 1 tablespoon Thick-It^® Original or ½ tablespoon Extra Strength Thick It 2^® with 4 oz. pureed fruit like applesauce, apricots, peaches or pears for a firm pudding-like consistency. To step up the flavor, add a dash of cinnamon or allspice in combination with either 1/8 teaspoon lemon juice or ½-1 teaspoon sugar or sweetener. Refer to our usage charts for more detailed instructions.

Pureed Vegetables
Pureed carrots, green beans, wax beans, peas, tomatoes and winter squash can also achieve a pudding-like consistency with 1 tablespoon Thick-It^® Original or ½ tbsp Extra Strength Thick It 2^®. Add ¼ - ½ teaspoon of vegetable or chicken liquid bouillon concentrate or ½ teaspoon margarine to make them taste more like the comfort foods you enjoy.

Pureed Meats
The mixing of Thick-It^® Original or Extra Strength Thick It 2^® with pureed beef and chicken will vary depending on the fluidity of the puree. We suggest adding 2 ½ teaspoons to 1 tablespoon of the original formula or 1 ¼ - 1 ½ teaspoons of Thick-It® 2 to 4 oz. of beef or chicken puree. Enhance the flavor with beef, chicken or vegetable liquid bouillon concentrate along with a dash of poultry seasoning for the chicken if desired.
