Baby food supplement—carrot papaya milk soup

Overview

In our country's traditional diet, calcium intake is generally insufficient. The main reason is that children stop drinking milk at a certain age, and only a small number of adults have the habit of drinking milk every day. If you don't drink milk and don't pay attention to eating other calcium-supplementing foods, calcium deficiency is inevitable in the long run. The reference intake of calcium for 1-4 years old is 400 mg per day, and the recommended intake for adults is 800 mg. In ordinary meals, only half of the amount can be supplied, which is obviously a serious shortage. If a child encounters a nutritional shortcoming of insufficient calcium during development, it may affect the child's height development. Food calcium supplementation must become an important task on the table. Milk is the most readily available source of calcium. A cup of 200 ml of milk contains about 250 mg of calcium. Eating any other food cannot be so convenient and quick. This milk soup has a natural sweetness and a very good taste. It can be used as a breakfast drink or as a snack for babies.

  4. Pour cold water into the pot, steam until cooked, steam over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the carrots can be easily poked through with chopsticks. Yuzu Mama: The absorption rate of carrots is mainly related to the cooking method. After the carrots are heated to fully soften the cell wall, only a small amount of oil is needed to ensure the absorption of carotene. The butterfat in milk can help the absorption of carotene. No need to use oil to fry.
