How Do You Make Puree Baby Food?
Making your own baby food is cost efficient, natural and healthy. Your baby has the benefit of eating what the rest of the family does without any additives. First before preparing foods, make sure that your hands, foods and utensils are thoroughly washed. Peel and cut necessary fruits, vegetables and meats. Any hard fruits and vegetables will need to be soften. To do this steam, or boil in a small amount of water until the produce can be poked through with a fork. For grains, grind first then boil to soften. Meats have to be cut and fat trimmed and skinned before cooking boiling. Fruits and vegs can be placed in a blender with a little water or breast milk and turn blender on puree or liquefy until there are no large chunks. For meats and chicken blend or puree in a blender. When steps 1-3 are complete it is time to serve. Food should not be hotter then body temperature. Do not add seasonings or sweeteners. Give food amount according to your baby’s appetite and age.
