How to prepare each food
Pumpkin
Steam, roast, or boil pumpkin until very soft, then mash to a smooth purée or offer a finger-length soft-cooked spear. Remove the skin and any seeds. Serve warm and skip salt and added sugar.

Potato
Potato is always cooked, never raw. Boil, steam, bake, or roast until very soft, then mash to a smooth purée or offer a finger-length soft-cooked wedge. A little breast milk, formula, or water loosens a stiff mash. Skip salt.

Cook potato until soft; raw or undercooked potato is hard. A very sticky, gluey mash can cling to the mouth, so loosen it or serve a fluffier texture. Keep pieces small and watch as your baby eats.
