How to do the baby's complementary food zucchini? Zucchini contains an interferon inducer, which can stimulate the body to produce interferon, improve immunity, is rich in water, regulates human metabolism, and has the effects of losing weight and preventing cancer. Because zucchini is rich in water, it also has the effect of moisturizing the skin. Therefore, mothers should learn to cook for their babies. Zucchini is more suitable for babies over five months old. How should the baby supplement zucchini? First, wash and peel the zucchini for later use. Then remove the zucchini seeds, cut them into small pieces, steam them in a pot for about ten minutes, let them cool, pour them into a stirring cup, and mash them with a stirring rod. After mashing, mix in rice paste and serve. The rest can be put into a supplementary food box, frozen into ice bricks and heated while eating.
For older babies, mom can make zucchini and egg pancakes for them. The specific method is: cut the zucchini into the smallest filaments with a tool, if it is a smaller baby, chop it with a knife, then separate the yolk with an egg separator, add flour, add a little water and stir well, and finally add a little salt and stir well. Heat in a non-stick pan, pour in a little olive oil, pour in the batter once, and fry on low heat until both sides are golden.
The principle of baby complementary food addition: the baby's gastrointestinal function is underdeveloped, and its adaptability to new foods is weak, which is prone to digestive and absorption disorders. Therefore, when adding complementary food, we must follow the principle of gradual progress and not rush into it.
1, from less to more, from thin to thick, from fine to thick. If you add egg yolk, you can start with 1∕4 and observe the baby's feces. If it is normal within 4-5 days, it can be increased to 1∕2 and then to 1. Similarly, feed rice soup first, then porridge, from thick porridge to rotten rice. Vegetables are fed with vegetable paste first, and then chopped vegetables.
Get used to one before adding another. The same is true for newly added foods, and each food needs to be tried for 4-5 days. If there is no anorexia, allergies, diarrhea, etc. During the trial period, you can try another food. In this way, we can not only know whether the baby can tolerate this kind of food, but also determine what kind of food will cause allergies.
3. Wait until the baby is healthy. When a baby is sick, his appetite often drops and his digestive ability also drops. Adding new food at this time often makes the baby unable to adapt.
4. Eat with a spoon. Because while adding food, it also trains the baby's ability to use spoons, swallow and chew. Especially pure rice flour, don't mix it with milk powder and put it in a bottle for the baby to suck. The spoon should be suitable for the baby's mouth shape, and use a shallow spoon.
5. When the baby is familiar with a kind of food, he should still keep the frequency of eating. For example, if the baby is used to eating egg yolk, he will add vegetable paste and fish paste, but the egg yolk should be eaten often.
6. Muddy food should be light in taste, not too much sugar, salt and chemical additives, not to mention monosodium glutamate, which will destroy the absorption of zinc.
