To heat baby food while away from home, one method involves transporting it cold in a food flask and then heating it with a microwave once you reach your destination.
Heating Baby Food Using a Food Flask and Microwave
A practical approach for managing baby food when you're travelling is to prepare it beforehand and keep it chilled during transit. This method ensures the food remains fresh until you're ready to serve it.
Step-by-Step Process
- Transport Cold: Firstly, you can carry your food cold in one of our food flasks. This flask will mimic a fridge, helping to keep the food at a safe temperature until you reach your destination.
- Prepare for Heating: Once you arrive at a location where heating is possible (specifically with a microwave), decant the food from the flask into a microwavable container.
- Reheat Thoroughly: After transferring the food, reheat it using a microwave. It is important to reheat it to a piping hot 71°C to ensure it is safe for consumption.
This method requires access to a microwave upon arrival, making it a suitable option for trips where facilities are available, such as visiting friends or family, or staying in accommodations equipped with kitchenettes.
