How to make homemade baby cereal?

There is no exact data on the ratio of rice flour to water, it is entirely based on the baby's month and adaptability. When the baby first comes into contact with rice noodles, you can make it thinner and thicker slowly.

Specific rice noodle preparation method: 1. The water temperature of rice noodle is too high, and the nutrients in rice noodle are easy to lose; 2. The water temperature is too low, the rice noodles do not dissolve, and they will clump when mixed together, and the baby will have indigestion after eating. 3. The more suitable water temperature is seventy or eighty degrees Celsius, and there should be no problem with the hot water in the water dispenser used by the general family to soak rice noodles.

Note: Mom does not need to boil the prepared rice noodles again, otherwise the water-soluble nutrients of the rice noodles will be easily destroyed. The suitable water temperature for making rice noodles is 70 -80.

Usually, babies have not yet grown teeth when they start to add complementary foods, so liquid or pureed foods are very suitable for babies to digest and absorb. However, you should not give your baby such food for a long time, because this will cause your baby to miss the critical period of developing chewing ability, which may lead to difficulties in chewing food.

Studies have confirmed that premature introduction of complementary foods before the age of 4 months increases the risk of food allergies. When it's time to add complementary foods, delaying them can be a nutrient deficiency. Therefore, it is recommended to start adding complementary foods after the baby is 6 months old.

The only suggestion is to start with iron-rich pureed foods, such as iron-fortified rice flour paste, liver puree, red meat puree, etc., and then slowly expand to a varied diet. As long as the nutrition is good, it is safe, it meets the baby's chewing characteristics, and the food texture and shape are appropriate. This will not only prevent your baby from being picky eaters in the future, but also help you with balanced nutrition.
