Prepare an IDDSI texture-modified meal

Practice the sequence you already learned for “Prepare an IDDSI texture-modified meal” until the order feels automatic. Practice IDDSI from clinical-nutrition training. A drink is not thickened “by eye,” and a meal is not served until the fork or flow test passes.

  1. Read the prescribed IDDSI level from the order.
  2. Prepare the food or liquid to that level using the taught method.
  3. Run the IDDSI fork-drip, spoon-tilt, or flow test for that level.
  4. Reject the item if it fails and remake it.
  5. Label the tray with the level.
  6. Serve immediately.
  7. Do not add ice, gravy, or a straw that changes the tested texture.
