Babies between four and six months old can start adding some complementary foods. Of course, complementary foods are mostly in the form of purees, such as fruit puree, vegetable puree, etc. Vegetable puree in particular is very beneficial to the healthy growth of babies, especially as it can supplement various vitamins. However, many mothers have no experience in making pureed complementary foods, and they also want to know how to puree vegetables. Here we recommend that mothers buy a food processor. Vegetable puree is one of the first types of complementary foods that babies come into contact with. It can effectively complement the nutrition of breast milk. Different vegetables have different nutrients, so when making vegetable puree for babies, you should also diversify. However, the premise of diversification is that the baby is already accustomed to complementary foods. When adding complementary foods for the first time, he should still only eat one kind of food a day, and the amount should increase from small to large. When the baby begins to get used to a variety of complementary foods, mothers face problems. Because the baby has limited appetite, he can only eat a little at a time. If you make so little, it will be troublesome to make one kind of vegetable puree, let alone multiple kinds. It is recommended that mothers use complementary food packaging boxes to prepare several meals at a time. This ensures that the baby can eat a variety of complementary food and vegetable purees each time, and the mother does not have to be too troubled. But don't make too much each time, because if you leave it for too long, the vegetable puree will lose nutrients and become stale. In addition, different vegetables should be treated differently when making supplementary food purees: 1. After washing, green leafy vegetables should be soaked in clean water for 15 to 30 minutes. Then remove the coarse fiber parts and blanch them in boiling water (be careful not to cook them for too long as the nutrients will be lost, just cook them until they are cooked). Then chop them into pieces and blend them into a puree in a food processor. 2. For potatoes, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, etc., it is best to wash them and steam them with the skin on. Peeling them after steaming can more effectively preserve the nutrients. Then use a spoon to mash them into puree for your baby to eat, because the puree made by a food processor will be tougher. Precautions When feeding the soup to your baby, you should blend the vegetables very finely at first. As the baby gets older, you can give the soup a little more texture. Of course, the consistency can also be adjusted by yourself. For adults, stir it a little more roughly. If you cannot drink the soup on the same day, do not add milk directly to the soup. Instead, pour the milk into the soup bowl each time you drink it, and then add hot soup to prevent the soup from spoiling. |
