A couple of questions for you guys on weaning into solids
1. My paed suggested to avoid salt,sugar,ghee to my baby till he turns 1 year old. But I didn't check if I can use dry fruits like dried grapes/kissmiss and dates with homemade infant food to enhance the taste. Can I soak the dry fruits and use that soaked water while making the baby food? Is that a good thing to do?
2. On YouTube I see a lot of options of instant homemade cerelac where the process involves baking the base mixture into a biscuit and grinding them into a instant mix. Anyone tried this way of baking and is it safe? Since I start work in a month , I found instant homemade option better than the ones where I need to cook the food each time.

since my baby will be in daycare and I need to provide instructions for making cerelac... I wanted to opt for the instant homemade version which just needs boiled cooled <u>water</u>

Hello shravani yes you can soak dry dates and add that water in baby's food, or else use Jagery or dry dates fine powder.<br>
And I am not using any baking technique to prepare baby food, but yes I have prepared homemade cerelac for my baby, as I am working so my mom is prepares that daily and is giving to baby, if you prepare daal rice wala cerelac so it will be ready within 5 minutes, so make that, and keep in air tight container, take care
