How to cook?

If industrially produced cereal is used, then the question of how to cook porridge practically does not arise, since the technique for creating the dish is indicated directly on the packaging.

Most often, the dry mixture is poured with boiled water (you should carefully monitor temperature conditions) and stir until complete dissolution. You should prepare porridge right before eating, following the following recommendations:

  1. Baby porridge, offered to an infant for the first time, must be five percent (consumption of 5 grams per 100 milliliters of water). This is the best product consistency for initial feeding. Then the porridge will be 10%.
  2. You need to start with a minimum volume - a teaspoon. It is best to “arm yourself” with silicone cutlery, suitable for children’s sensitive gums.
  3. The best introduced porridge is pureed, gluten-free, dairy-free, made from buckwheat or rice. You need to make sure that the resulting dish is free of lumps and other inclusions. After feeding the porridge, the baby is given breast milk or the usual mixture.
  4. Gradually the portion of the gruel increases – by about a teaspoon per day. Over the course of a week, you should increase the volume of the dish to 150 grams (this applies to a 6-month-old child), then the single serving will only grow:
    • seven months – 160 grams;
    • eight months - 180 grams;
    • year – 200 grams.

If you are going to cook porridge on our own, proportions and the above rules remain in effect. Just don’t forget to grind the cereal before cooking to avoid lumps that the baby won’t approve of, and then you can add formula or mother’s milk to the dish.

Malyutka porridge will not only be an ideal first food option, but also a favorite dish for all babies.

Good day. In this review I’ll tell you about my impression, or rather my child’s, of Malyutka oatmeal porridge with fruit. Naturally, we began to eat exactly this type when we already realized that the child was not allergic to fruit.

If your children have such a predisposition to allergies, then it is better to take single-ingredient cereals either without additives or with one additive in order to immediately identify the allergy.

I’ll tell you right away about the method of preparing this porridge, since it’s a little non-standard. If usually porridges of this kind are diluted with boiled water at 37-40 degrees, then here it needs to be brought to 60 degrees, it almost turns out to be boiling water. But the fact is that no matter what temperature it is stirred at, it still doesn’t seem to dissolve completely. There are strange particles in the porridge, so small and nasty that they interfere with the main taste.

And I think that’s why the child completely refused to eat it. Manufacturers indicate that Malyutka porridge contains a lot of iron of the “smart iron” type to replenish it in the child’s body, but how to get this iron if such porridge cannot be eaten. And this despite the fact that it is dairy. After all, there are dairy-free ones that don’t taste very good, but here they are with milk ((
