Than to please your favorite baby? What kind of sophisticated lunch to cook tomorrow? How to arrange a delicious dish? Hundreds of questions are spinning in the head of young mothers, and sometimes they are so carried away that they forget that they can’t eat a lot of the baby, and cook ahead for a week. And only after, realizing the moment, they think about the ways of storing baby food. If we are talking about small volumes, then you can limit yourself to the refrigerator and feed the baby tomorrow. However, in the case of large stocks, you have to resort to the help of the freezer.
By the way, the issue of storage of baby food is very relevant in the “Mama” circle. Having prepared food for a month or two at a time, you can devote much more time to the baby than you will be distracted daily for cooking. Cooked fruits, vegetables, meat and even yolks can be stored in the freezer for 1-2 months. Leaving finished products for a longer period is not recommended for a long time, since most of the vitamins will be lost, and the taste will not be so hot.
When storing baby food, special shapes should be used (ordinary ice molds or for cooking muffins are quite suitable). Puree laid out in molds, it is necessary to cover with a filler for food products and sent to the freezer. Attention! Do not use foil, as there is a chance that it will stick to mashed potatoes. If you were not able to find suitable molds, you can use a regular tray covered with baking paper. Put the approximate portions for the baby with a spoon on the tray, cover the mashed potatoes with a film and place in the freezer. When the mashed potatoes freezes, you can safely transfer it to packages for freezing with a string, not forgetting to indicate the contents of the package and the date of cooking.
This is a very simple and proven way. Having prepared the crumbs of meat or vegetable mashed potatoes on their own, you will not be disturbed by thoughts about the components used. You will always know exactly that you used only fresh products. Storage of baby food does not cause any difficulties, it is enough to free one freezer chamber so that children’s food supplies are placed in it. Believe me, buying a store puree, you will need much more space for storage of baby food.
