A. yes, can add salt. By the time children turn one, their body can digest almost everything adults eat. Give all family food in soft and roughly mashed form. Give all family food in soft and little mashed form..don't give puree form.Porridges should not be watery. It should be thick enough not to fall off the spoon. Food should be less spicy and sweet. By 1 year, baby should be taking 3 meals + 1 or 2 snacks. Babies need good fats like ghee, unsalted butter, coconut, etc. Normal cooking oil whichever the family uses can also be used. Limit the milk intake to maximum 16 ounces ( Try to give with cup)so that baby has enough room for solids. Don’t give liquids like milk or juices before meal time.
