Hi everyone,
so I want to get a new immersion blender, because I want to make berry sauces for cheesecakes, panna cotta, etc. I love raspberries but hate raspberry seeds. Pressing the raspberry mush through a strainer doesn't really work because it takes forever and some of the seeds still get through. So if I blend with an immersion blender long enough will it grind up the seeds too? I haven't been able to find anything useful through a Google search. Thanks!
Never had success getting the seeds blended. Finally bought a fine mesh strainer on Amazon for $12. Worth every penny. Labor time still the same but no seeds get through.
I have a vita mix blender. I make smoothies with raspberries and strawberries all the time. They pulverize the seeds. I've put frozen raspberries and water alone into my vita mix, also pulverized the seeds. Perhaps that is the trick...using frozen berries? If done frozen with water in the vita mix then sugar added..cook down..wa la raspberry coulis..sauce.

Would you mind sharing a link to the one you bought? All the ones I looked at at the store tonight had the same size holes.
I had a similar problem trying to use real raspberries in my raspberry cake. Now I use the fruit and vegetable strainer attachment for my Kitchenaid. It gets about 90 -95% of the seeds out! I love it and use it for anything with tiny seeds.
Here is the strainer I bought. No seeds get through. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014KSAVSI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Thanks for the links! I do like seedless raspberry jam, but probably not for things like cheesecakes, panna cotta or pancakes. I have a story about that actually: We were having breakfast at a place last weekend, I ordered french toast and they never brought me syrup, so I ended up putting on the jelly they had at the table. It was ok, but probably not something I would do again, I'd prefer real fruit sauce if I can get it.
