What is a nutritional jar?
- A nutritional jar contains foods that have nutritional components, processed to ensure food hygiene and has high nutritional content.
- This product is suitable for babies who are starting to eat solids, ensuring they receive all the necessary nutrients for growth. Additionally, the product is convenient for families when taking their babies on trips.
- You can make nutritional jars for your baby right at home or buy pre-made nutritional jars at stores specializing in baby products or on reputable e-commerce sites, priced from 40,000 VND for a 125g jar.
How to choose good quality rice
- Good quality rice is freshly produced rice that hasn’t been stored for long. You should choose rice with large, round, shiny grains, with a beautiful opaque white color, not broken or too crushed.
- You can check the quality of rice before buying by chewing a few grains. If the rice has a light sweet taste and aroma, then it is new rice with good quality.
- You should choose organic rice because it has a naturally delicious flavor and contains a lot of fiber, minerals, and vitamins, suitable for young children.
- Avoid choosing rice that has a musty smell or has turned yellow as this rice has likely gone moldy. Do not buy rice with a strange smell or too white because it may have been bleached or excessively milled, losing many nutrients.
How to prepare Black Plum Nutritional Jar
-
Prepare the ingredients
First, you roast the rice until golden and then soak it in water for about 30 minutes. Similarly, soak the oats for 30 minutes until they expand, then rinse them to reduce the stickiness.
Tip: You should soak the rice and oats for at least 30 minutes so the rice becomes smoother when ground and the oats retain more milk, making the dish creamy and delicious!
-
Make the black plum mixture
Add 2 black plums, 1 piece of salt-free cheese, Heinz baby biscuits, and 60ml of formula milk into the blender, then blend until smooth to create the black plum mixture.
Tip: You can strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps, making the dish smoother.
-
Blend rice and oat water
After finishing the black plum mixture, continue to add 1 tablespoon of roasted rice and 1 tablespoon of soaked oats, along with 100ml of filtered water, and blend until smooth.
Next, strain the mixture through a sieve to extract the liquid, leaving out the solid residue. You should strain it 2 – 3 times to ensure the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
-
Cook rice and oat water
You simmer the blended mixture on the infrared stove at 400 degrees Celsius and stir continuously until the mixture thickens and becomes fragrant.
Tip:- You should keep the heat low and stir continuously to avoid the mixture thickening too quickly or clumping due to high heat.
- If you are cooking with a gas stove, remember to keep the flame low and stir continuously to prevent the mixture from burning.
When you see the oatmeal mixture thickening and releasing a fragrant aroma, slowly pour the plum mixture in and stir quickly to mix well, then turn off the heat immediately.
After turning off the heat, continue to stir the mixture for another 3 – 5 minutes to ensure that the mixture does not clump together.
-
Completion
Pour the mixture while it is still hot into a glass jar and let it cool, then store it in the refrigerator refrigerator. You can store and use it for 2 days, but the nutritional jar will taste better when eaten cold and used on the same day!
-
Final Product
The nutritional jar will have an appealing orange-yellow color once completed. The final product has a sweet aroma from oats combined with roasted rice, a hint of sourness from dried black plums, the creaminess of cheese, and baby food cookies.
All the ingredients blend together to create a dessert with a wonderfully smooth consistency. Just one jar of this black plum nutritional blend will provide your little one with all the necessary nutrients.
