Supplementary feeding during and after weaning, including breast milk substitute
Congee: Combine one part rice to six parts water in a large, lidded pot. Simmer gently for 4-6 hours with the lid closed. After cooking, strain the soup through a coarse cheesecloth or a fine sieve. Store the liquid portion in the refrigerator. As a breast milk substitute, heat one part cow’s milk (or soy or mare’s milk if your baby is intolerant) with two parts congee and bring to a boil. To supplement the congee, simply leave the strainer unstrained and feed it as a sweet porridge with honey and cooked apples, or savory with cooked carrots and a little soy sauce.
