Equipment

1 juicer or blender
1 fine mesh sieve with optional cheesecloth
1 storage bottle

Ingredients

12 passion fruit 10 - 12 medium-sized purple passion fruit or 3-6 large-sized yellow passion fruit.

Instructions

Wash your fruit to remove any dirt or impurities.
Using a spoon, scrape the pulp from the inside of the fruits into a bowl or measuring glass.
Process the pulp using a blender, juicer, or fine mesh sieve and spoon to smash the pulp sacs and extract the puree from the pulp.
Strain the puree to remove any crushed seed pieces. You can use either a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined in a sieve.
Transfer the strained puree in an airtight container.
Store the processed puree in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week, or portion into ice cube trays and freeze for longer-term storage.

Notes

Preparation Notes:

While it is a little annoying to do, washing the fruit is an important step since any microorganisms on the outside of the fruit can be pushed to the inside when slicing.

Troubleshooting Notes:

seeds in the puree - if you are having trouble separating seeds or seed pieces from the pulp, you can use cheesecloth lined in a fine mesh sieve to remove the pieces. It is okay to leave them in, because the seeds are edible, but some people prefer to keep the puree a pure golden-yellow color.
sour or acidic - if your puree is too tart or sour, you will want to add some sugar or other sweetener to whatever you use the puree in.
