A. Hello..You can boil or steam both..but better to steam..Steaming keeps more of the nutrients in. steam the food in a little bit of water just until soft enough to puree, except banana, papaya, avocado.

A. U Should never steam or boiled any fruits you know you should just be giving to the child in the same manner as they are because when you actually steam the fruits they kill all the nutrients of the foods which is why it is recommended to give it to the child as it is
