If you are planning to make your own baby food, or in the midst of doing so, I found a great tool to make this process easier. It also creates VERY happy babies.
It is called the Babycook by Beaba, and I am in love with it. There are not many steps in making baby food, nor does it take time away from playing with your little one(s).
- Dice vegetables/fruit
- Add correct amount of water to the mixing area, according to the booklet (included)
- Add the diced food to the steaming basket, top with mixing lid, and seal shut
- Add water to the reservoir
- Turn the knob to the “steam” icon.
- Once steaming is complete, remove water (but save some to add when pureeing the food), and take food out of the steaming basket
- Add steamed food direct to the mixing area, add some of the steamed water back into the mixing area. Adding water will be up to your discretion and how thick you want your food.
- Puree
Then volia! Your baby’s meal is complete! In three hours, I completed four different vegetables, and several jars of food. Granted, I didn’t stay in the kitchen the entire time. I would get the food started, let it steam, then go spend time with my family until I went in the kitchen to check on things.
I love that your time isn’t spent in the kitchen making food, and Baby P gets fresh veggies and fruit from our local farmers market.
I highly recommend adding this sweet cooking machine to your next baby registry, buying it for your friends, or getting one for those sweet babies of your own.
I have the older edition, the Babycook Original, but you can see all the editions, and links to purchase them, here:
FYI- this is not a paid ad. This was recommended to me by my cousin who made baby food, with ease, for all three of her children. She is the original Beaba user.
Happy {baby food} eating!
