How to Strain Strawberries Without Seeds?

Has anyone here ever strained strawberries? My dietitian suggested I strain fruits with seeds, I am just not sure how to go about doing that. Is it the same as juicing? I have a juicer in my basement that I don't really ever used but I guess that I could use it if that is a way to have strawberries without having the seeds. Do you like put the fruit in a strainer and squish them like with a fork or a spoon? I just can't seem to figure how this is going to work. Wouldn't it be the same as fruit juice then?

I guess as straberries have their seeds on the surface of the fruit - one might 'peel' them [with a speed peeler hand held [the kind that peels very thinly with a flexible central gapped blade] - but a bit of a fiddle I suspect - but sadly their visual appeal may be rather dented ! ?  

[I suspect it may be the smaller and under-ripe fruit that have their seeds closely together and can be quite abrasve before maturing which perhaps could be problematic - just go the larger ripe fruit and dont be tempted to buy out of season stuff which is probably picked before ripe and flown airmiles distance before reaching you ? ? ?   BUt - you strike me as a  descerning person - especially needing to watch your needs closely ...... so I doubt this very much ;-0 ]

I never buy canned or indeed frozen strawberries - these I guess one would only quickly liquidise and then sieve?

Most strawberry seeds I have not found affected me adversely - perhaps be choosy in what variety you select from your supermarket shelves?

Good luck!

I eat about a cup of strawberries in my morning smoothie every day. Seeds and all. No issues. They just go into the blender with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, bananas, and mangoes. Or some combination thereof. But given what I know about your history, I understand your concern.

The only way I know to strain strawberries is to put them in the blender, then pour the mix thru a fine mesh sieve to remover the seeds.   The sieve will allow all the fruit pulp thru, but retain the seeds.  But I can't imagine strawberry seeds would be a cause of concern, as any undigested food would certainly be larger than a strawberry seed.  But......that's how you strain them.

;O)

Just eat the damn things, and go about your day. They’re smaller than anything else you eat.
