Homemade Baby-Food: Tools

Luckily, making baby-food is cheap and easy.
Most of all you need, you already have in your kitchen.
Promise.
You'll need something to cut with, and something to cut on.
You'll need a pot big enough to boil water
and your raw, cut-up food.
You'll need something to steam.
I use a steamer that came on my rice-cooker,
but you can also use the kind that sits on a pot.
You'll need a dish that is deep enough to hold some water
and bake some squash, halved.
You'll need something to blend/puree your baby's food
to the right consistency for their age.






 You'll need ice-cube trays of some sort to freeze your food, and something to cover the trays while they freeze. (I got this kind, super cheap online - they're durable and go right into the dishwasher over and over.)You can also use regular trays and parchment paper to cover.
Zip-lock bags to hold frozen cubes. Containers to carry and reheat.
