How to thaw the supplementary food paste?

Generally, when the baby is six months old, complementary food can be added appropriately, but it is best to make it into mud, so that the baby can eat better. Don't eat some greasy food, because the baby's gastrointestinal function is still weak and not easy to digest. It is best to eat some light food, so how to thaw the complementary food?

It is convenient to thaw frozen food with supplementary meat sauce, but hygiene is the most important. The low temperature of the freezer can play an effective sterilization role. Don't worry, just keep the refrigerator clean. However, the thawing process is more particular, and the hygiene requirements for baby's complementary food are higher. Here, it is suggested that mom thaw with boiling water, which is quick and hygienic. In addition, remind mom that thawing baby complementary food can't be as simple as thawing adult food. It is easy to breed bacteria and bring discomfort to baby's stomach if it is placed indoors or outdoors at room temperature or high temperature.

If you know that you want to eat this kind of food the next day, mom can put the food in the freezer in the ordinary freezer the night before, so that it won't be too cold the next day, and there will be cold air in the freezer that won't nourish bacteria. Moreover, it can be thawed by microwave oven, but this method is not good for maintaining food nutrition and is not recommended.

There are two kinds of complementary food preservation: cold storage and freezing.

1. What's the difference between cold storage and freezing?

Refrigeration room (4℃), which is what we usually call fresh-keeping layer. Freezing room (-18℃), which is what we call quick freezing.

2. Will the complementary food after refrigeration or freezing lose its nutrition?

Nutrition is definitely not as good as eating and cooking now. However, as long as the refrigeration and freezing process is scientific, the loss of nutritional value of food is very small, and it can be given to the baby.

Pickled meat sauce is raw or cooked vegetable sauce and meat sauce, mainly for the convenience of taking it at the next meal, especially meat sauce, which is a bit time-consuming to make. Therefore, the vegetable paste and meat paste are mainly cooked, mashed and then frozen, which is convenient for eating next time.

Porridge can also be frozen to eat rice the next day, but porridge and rice are more convenient to cook. It is better to eat now and cook now.

Usually when you make complementary food for your baby, you will choose to make more, but summer won't last long. Baby's complementary meat sauce is best kept in cold storage, with a shelf life of about 3 days. When storing, put the prepared meat sauce in plastic wrap or in a sealed box. If the temperature is high, it is recommended to put it in the freezer. The bad thing may be that the taste is not very good when you eat it again. It is recommended to take 3 days as the standard. Don't do too much at a time, consider the season and temperature. It is hot in summer, so it is recommended to do less. Usually, you can also make some vegetables and fruit purees for your baby to supplement nutrition in an all-round way.
