Baby food supplement tomato puree
Overview
Mino7M8D Depending on the baby's development, there are different ways to eat tomatoes at each stage, but the basic principle must be mastered: eat them cooked. Lycopene is a fat-soluble pigment. The absorption rate of lycopene when eaten raw is very low. Moreover, lycopene exists in the chromoplast of cells and needs to break the cell wall before it can be released. Raw food often cannot achieve the full wall-breaking effect. In addition, tomatoes contain a lot of organic acids, which play a very good protective role in vitamin C. Regardless of whether they are fried or boiled, the nutritional loss is very small. It should be noted that when cooking tomatoes, do not boil or stew them for a long time, otherwise it will cause serious loss of nutrients. (Picked from Du Niang)

Ingredients
Steps
-
Wash the tomatoes and remove the roots
-
Cut a cross with a knife, put it in a bowl and blanch it in boiling water (easy to peel)
-
After peeling, cut into pieces and remove the seeds. Put the rest into the steamer and steam for about 5 minutes (I didn’t know the time of steaming the first time and steamed it for a little longer, almost 8 minutes)
-
After steaming, put it into a cooking cup and puree (tomatoes contain a lot of water, so you don’t need to add water)
-
After tying, take the amount your baby eats and put it into a complementary food cup
-
Don’t waste the removed seeds and beat them with the remaining tomato puree a few times with a cooking stick (Mama just drinks it)

One tomato makes baby’s dinner and Mama’s vegetable juice
