The fact that the cooked food is much more useful fried, nutritionists confirmed more than once. It retained vitamins, natural flavor. In addition, the taste of the dishes from the frying pan affect oil for frying, a variety of spices and seasonings, and this food is certainly not for children's stomach.
WHY IS IT HARMFUL
During cooking in a pan excessively high heat destroys nutrients products, and the oil used for frying, burns and becomes a health hazard.
Also in the food it generates large quantities of free radicals and if these substances accumulate in the body, problems occur in the liver, gastrointestinal tract, nervous and immune systems. Agree, the picture is unattractive. So we very much hope that during pregnancy and breastfeeding, you essentially have limited (or maybe totally excluded?) Fried on the menu.
But the introduction of complementary foods and baby does not mean that you can go back to their previous eating habits. Firstly, you will do a disservice to your body in general and the condition of the skin in particular. Secondly, the toddler will sooner or later become interested in what you eat, and will want to try. So let's not hold experiments with health and showing a bad example, but concentrate on the correct foods.
Let's start with the children's mashed potatoes, cereals, soups, which will soon offer you crumbs. So try to have food brought to him only benefit!
WHAT TO PREPARE
Before cooking food thoroughly wash the vegetables, peel, chop finely and place in boiling water. It should not be too much, even if only slightly covers the roots. Periodically check the readiness of products with a fork or knife. They need to gently enter the vegetables, but not to destroy them into small pieces.
Sometimes it seems, is to add the fire - and the cooking time will be reduced. Not at all! After boiling point has a certain degree. But on the big fire to burn on food risks, as the water will evaporate faster. In addition, large bubbles will lift the lid, food is spilled on the stove and add to your work.
Of course, you can do without a cover. But then evaporate vitamins! And if you pan Coverings such as blankets, they will remain in the water. That is why nutritionists emphasize the benefits of vegetable broth, as it is saturated with useful substances. So pour it and use in food.
When turn off the burner, do not rush immediately to submit a dish on the table. Let sit for at least 10 minutes. Among other things, it allows you to "get" some products. For example, you can almost Dowar potatoes, cabbage and buckwheat porridge, and give a little stand. Some even wrapped in a blanket or a saucepan put in a warm place. The food is a more gentle, it does not lose its useful part.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PAN
The cooking utensils is very important. Good saucepan - half the success.
Buy a few small (for the child need small portions) of ceramic, fireproof glass or stainless steel with a double bottom.
You can, of course, use an enamel. Only regularly inspect its sides and bottom that there was no fracture, rescued pieces.
Once they find, immediately throw away the pot - it is no longer suitable for cooking.
