Date Puree

It’s such a simple thing to make, but date puree is SO useful when it comes to sweetening and thickening.

I’ve used it in my Carrot & Beetroot Salad recipe (in the Orange Dressing), the Thai Green Curry Lentils, as well as the Great Start Smoothie. Beyond that, you could use it in soups, casseroles, dessert fillings, relishes.. the list goes on. Thanks to New Zealand’s Revive Cafe for this recipe.
