🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Carrot is an orange root vegetable rich in beta-carotene and, when well cooked, can be introduced gently from six months. Potato adds a satisfying, creamy base with its soft texture and energy, while a teaspoon of olive oil offers healthy fats. Its smooth, pourable consistency makes a comfortable, familiar start for a baby's first experience with soup from a spoon.
Maiyko's note
Choosing fresh, ideally organic carrots keeps this soup as natural as possible. At Maiyko we believe in softness at the table and on the skin alike; organic cotton bibs gently accompany these first-spoon moments.
