Preparation for Nendram Powder for making Baby first food BLW Porridge
-
Wash the bananas well and remove the outer skin. Chop off the topmost and bottommost portions.
-
Take a slicer and make thin slices. If the slices are thick, they take longer to dry.
-
Spread the slices on a tray and keep it outside in hot sun to dry. You can cover with a very thin muslin cloth to prevent dust from settling.
-
Typically it should dry in a couple of days (depending on the weather). At night times, you can keep it under a fan inside the house.
-
Once fully dry, transfer to a mixie jar and make a fine powder. If it is not fully dry, it will form lumps while grinding. In that case, dry it further and grind again.
-
Once finely ground, transfer to an airtight container and you can store it in your freezer and use as needed.
