When is sieving especially useful in a pureed diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When hard fibres, seeds, or small pieces remain
Sieving after blending removes hard fibres, seeds, peel fragments, and small solid particles that could remain in a puree. It produces a smoother and more uniform texture, which may improve swallowing safety. Sieving does not add salt, make food crunchy, or directly reduce water to thicken it.
