Re: Homemade baby food













Here is what I found.  I would like
to make homemade baby food as well so I hope others will add to this list.

=========================


Today’s ready-made baby foods are a cut above those from years past. It’s
no longer difficult to find jarred foods that have no added Sugar or salt,
for example, and many brands now offer baby food made from organic  ingredients.


Even so, if you want to give your baby  the freshest, best-tasting foods, you might
want to consider making your own baby food. It’s easier than you think.


Here’s a quick course in homemade fruits and vegetables, which will be
among your baby’s first solids.


  • Wash fruits or
    vegetables well.
  • Remove any skin, pits,
    and seeds.
  • Steam in a small
    amount of water until very soft.
  • Puree in a blender or food
    processor.

That’s all there is to it! Whatever you don’t use right away can be stored
for later use. Just pour the pureed food into ice-cube trays and freeze. One
to four cubes, thawed, makes a perfect serving size for a baby.


Once your child has mastered the art of eating pureed foods, you can
process the cooked foods more coarsely. Next, you can skip the food processor
altogether and just mash thefood with a fork. (Some fruits, such as bananas,
don’t need pureeing at all and can be mashed with a fork right from the
start.) Always be sure the food is of the appropriate consistency for your
child, to prevent choking.


When introducing new foods to your baby , wait at least three days, and
preferably a week, between each one so you can check for allergic reactions.
Once you have established that your child is not allergic to certain fruits
and vegetables, you can combine them for an added taste treat.
