Food Production

As per my previous post, I'm in the mood to make my own baby food. Making your own baby food or puree is so much healthier than the one you buy off rack from supermarket. Also, making your own will taste so much better than those you buy, which I feel the water content is 80% more than what you are getting.

Anyway, I do confess that I still buy them occassionally for travelling purpose which is so much convenient and handy.

Here's what I make today in bulks and I store them in freezer for days/weeks. So, each time I need them I just pop them out and warm them in the food warmer. Within 10mins Zach will have his dinner ready.

Making your own baby food/puree takes as little time as you can imagine. I took 20 mins from peeling, washing, steaming and pureeing them. Best of all, there's no sweat in washing.

I decide to make carrot + corn + apple. Here's what I did...

Peel the carrot and apple skin. core the apple and cut them in small bite size. Corn, you can just steam as it is and use butter knife to scrap them off.

Next, put all of them in a steamer and steam them for good 10mins.

While steaming get ready the blender and once ready, pour all into the blender and start blending! The water collecting from the fruits, carrot and corn can be used for thinning the puree

Here's how the puree.

Store them in baby cubes or another way is in ice tray, but becareful in storing in ice stray as you do not want to contaminate it. So cover well. After transfering them into the baby cubes, store them straight away in the freezer to avoid bacteria grow. To store them in refrigerator, you can keep them for 2 days max.

And voila! I have days/weeks of food supply for Zach. No rushing home to cook or preparing dinner for him. Don't you think is fun?
