How to choose delicious pumpkin
- Delicious pumpkins usually have a yellow-orange color, mixed with dark green, yellow flesh, and a characteristic sweet and fragrant taste, with a relatively firm texture.
- You should choose heavy, firm pumpkins with a smooth skin, a stem about 2 – 5cm long, and still fresh, not wilted.
- Avoid choosing pumpkins with short stems as they tend to spoil faster, and do not buy pumpkins with scratched skin, which feel soft and bumpy to the touch.
Note when making pumpkin pudding for babies
- The pudding dish is only for babies from 6 months old and up.
- It is necessary to choose organic ingredients to ensure safety for the baby’s health.
- Limit the use of salt and sugar for children under 12 months old.
- Divide the cake into small portions at each meal or add the cake to snacks for the child.
