As newborn babies grow older, it is necessary to provide them with complementary foods after 6 months. And vegetable juice is essential in the nutrition of complementary foods, because the unique dietary fiber contained in vegetables is also an extremely important nutrient for the growth of babies. So how to make celery juice as a baby food supplement?
1. First, go to the farmer's market to purchase fresh celery. Then remove the celery leaves and older celery stems from the purchased celery, rinse it with clean water, and soak it in diluted salt water for 15 minutes to remove insect eggs and pesticide residues.
2. Take out the celery from the diluted salt water and rinse it, then cut it into small pieces. Heat the pot with hot water, and when the water boils, put the celery into the hot water and cook it completely.
3. Then remove the cooked celery, rinse it with clean water, and filter it with a strainer to keep the water as clean as possible.
4. Put the dried celery into a juicer or blender for juicing. It is best to choose a juicer that can separate fiber and vegetable juice.
5. Finally, pour the filtered celery juice into a small bowl. As the celery juice is thicker and has less water, it is necessary to add an appropriate amount of warm water to the celery juice for dilution. Adding 0.7 or 1.0 times the amount of water is more appropriate. The vegetable juice made in this way can be fed to the baby.
