I just defrost my ice cube by sitting the boil in a warm bath of water until they are nice and warm for him to eat. I don't like using a microwave.]]> Wed, 25 Feb 2009 21:16:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=623049&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#623049 <![CDATA[Making and heating baby food : When I make mine I do it in flexible...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622699&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622699 Author: LeahandJoel

When I make mine I do it in flexible muffin thingys, makes it really easy to pop them out. My wee hefty boy eats more than one of the normal size muffin cups worth. I take it from freezer and put it in his bowl, microwave it for a minute, add a bit more water to it then thicken it with baby rice/baby musli, and heat for another 10 secs if it needs it.

As above, if I'm organised enough I take it out in the morning to defrost & heat in microwave or just zap from frozen but only ever to warm never boiling.]]> Tue, 24 Feb 2009 22:02:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622225&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622225 <![CDATA[Making and heating baby food : I just defrost my frozen cubes...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622155&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622155 Author: maysie

I just defrost my frozen cubes (either in the fridge or microwave depending on how organised i am!) and then heat in the microwave until warm (about 15 secs max). And yeah, make sure you stir it well after microwaving to spread out any hotspots. ]]> Tue, 24 Feb 2009 21:04:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622155&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622155 <![CDATA[Making and heating baby food : With my frozen vege&#039;s, I...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622102&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622102 Author: FreeSpirit

With my frozen vege's, I just pop however many cubes is needed into a cup, and zap them until not frozen. Be careful to check and stir anything you heat in the microwave as it will have hot spots. I don't heat to boiling point intentionally, but have been known to do it by mistake. Just use the inside of your wrist to check it's not to hot.]]> Tue, 24 Feb 2009 20:24:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=622102&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#622102 <![CDATA[Making and heating baby food : Whoops this posted twice ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=621922&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#621922 Author: FionaO

Hi,

This is probably a very silly question...but I have started making baby food and just wanted to check i'm not missing some important something.

So far I am making fruit and sweet potatoe, just boiling it and then mushing it up and then into ice cubes in the freezer all covered up.

When I want to feed it to him, do I need to re-heat to boiling point and then wait until a suitable temp to serve or can I just heat up until its warm enough since its got no meat in it.

How do you guys make your food?]]> Tue, 24 Feb 2009 17:55:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24783&PID=621920&title=making-and-heating-baby-food#621920
