My 9 month old doesnt like to have rice even if its mashed well. He'll eat if i blend cooked rice with vegetables. Is it okay to blend rice coz i heard its normally not done in india! Arathi replied. Hi all

Thanks for the advice! I am hoping my son will start eating mashed rice once he gets teeth!(He has one coming out!) Usha replied. Hi Arathi
I used to do the same to my daughter , blend cooked rice in blender and feed till 1 year, she had no teeth till 1yr, and hence cud not chew, but once she had few teeth like around 4-5, I gave her soft food, I used to pressure cook rice and wait for 6-7 whistles that made the rice soft and she likes the taste as well, I noticed that the rice blended and mashed rice taste varys a lot, try this, best of luck.
Usha megha replied. is it with rice or any other food as well? my son was doing the same but then i used to puree half the qty and mix mashed half with it. now i give him mashed only. but i still puree certain veges like carrots, beet etc.see if this works. another thing cook the rice in a pressure cooker if u r not doing so already.
all the best ruchika replied. hi aarti,
