Thank you very much, Zidane! I’m glad it was helpful. 🙂
]]>Yvvone, you’re so welcome! I’m glad this helped you. Let me know how things go with your new thermal cooker! 🙂
]]>Hi Candy. By “mesh” do you mean to mix things together? If so, either before or after you place it in the thermal cooker will be fine.
And if you’d like a little more detail about specifically cooking porridge for your baby in a thermal cooker, here you go:
If you’re making an individual serving of porridge the quantity will be too small to effectively cook in a thermal cooker (because the thermal cooker depends on a sufficient amount of thermal mass to do its job properly) – however, you can use the inner pot of the thermal cooker to heat the porridge on the stove and mesh it up and then place it in the outer pot of the thermal cooker to keep it warm. It should then keep it warm longer than a regular pot would but it won’t keep it warm for hours because the amount of cooked food (thermal mass) will likely be small. Does that help?
]]>Should I :
1. cook and mesh the porridge before putting into the thermal cooker
Or
2. cook and put in the cooker, then mesh it afterwards (when it is time to feed)?
I hear you, Angela! 🙂 We cook with a lot of veggies and they have always turned out great in a thermal cooker. I can’t speak to green beans specifically since no one in my family really likes them so I don’t cook with them. I really have been amazed at how well vegetables stay in a nice condition even after sitting in the thermal cooker for several hours.
]]>Oh, also, do veggies like green beans stay perfectly cooked or do they overcook if sitting?
