Steamed orange with salt

I have read and heard about this remedy many times but have not tried it personally. I initially started with only steamed orange without salt (with the intention to make my baby likes orange, as she dislike the fresh one), and later a little bit of salt when i feel us at home having dry throat or the weather is hot and humid.

















Recipe:
1 orange (I used Sunkist)
1 tsp himalaya pink salt (optional, good to add if having dry throat)

(1) Cut the orange into half (with skin intact), sprinkle some salt onto both sides equally and steam for 10 minutes.

(2) Once done, let it cool slightly before peeling off the skin. Cut into smaller pieces for baby easy consumption.

Tips - After steaming, there would be juice residue which is extremely salty. It is nice to remove and dilute it with some water and drink it instead. For adult, it is perfectly fine to eat once done steaming but for baby, it is safer to cut into smaller pieces before serving. Additionally, the steaming without salt is really a good way to introduce baby eating orange.
