Cam someone please tell me what this is - For cooking sweetcorn puree in a mouli - whats one of them????

Also, when can they start having bread?? Meat???

A Mouli is a little hand blender with a turn-handle. A.K sells her own exclusive to Boots

I understood meat/bread was OK after 6 months. But if you are introducing first tastes at this time (as is recommended) obviously do the blander stuff first

Ah thanks Minxy, I will order one.

I think Isabella will enjoy her food more when I can introduce meat

Moulis are the BEST invention ever - I've just got a cheapie metal thing, but it gets the food perfectly smooth and leaves behind things like fruit skin and anything too stringy.

Bread / Meat both fine after 6 months. Apparently you're meant to avoid wheat gluten until 6 months just because of possible gluten intolerance.

You can have a lot of fun with vegetables though and you can add spices to make them tastier - e.g. cinnamon - the AK book is full of suggestions. Maddie's favourites were sweet potato & courgette, and pear and avocado (she still loves the pear and avocado now).

Good luck!!
