The core of such meals is nutrient density enhancement, as elderly have reduced intake but unchanged (or increased) nutrient needs; palatability optimization boosts consumption but is secondary. To avoid nutrient loss from over-softening: prioritize steaming over boiling, cook just until tender (not mushy), and fortify with high-density ingredients like eggs, fish, or supplements.
