Starters Guide to Purees –

Introducing Purees to Baby

Making and feeding your baby is a right of passage, a developmental step that she must pass through in order to become the young energetic toddler that she will surely become. While all stages of baby’s growth are magical, feeding baby was the highlight for me. The reason is that you are such a big part of this stage. You get to decide what delicious first puree you are going to serve baby. You get to sit at the same level as your little one and watch all of the priceless faces as you spoon-feed her food you made with love. You get to be part of her first adventure in food tasting.

No pressure or anything.

For some, starting baby on their first puree can be daunting and stressful. It can all be confusing – what, when and how to feed your baby. While the stress is completely normal, let me take it away from you. See, it’s off your plate. Don’t you feel better already? You can now let go of all that worry and just have fun during this monumental stage in baby’s life.

These 10 purees are the place to start – my tried and true recipes that will surely be a hit with your little one, while providing baby with the fundamental nutrients she needs to grow and develop. But the best thing, these recipes deliver big in the taste department, giving your baby a culinary experience from the first swallow.

When Is Baby Ready for Purees

There isn’t an exact age to start baby on their journey into purees, this decision is left completely up to them.

You make the food, they decide when to eat that food.

For some babies, this might be at 4 months, while others might not be ready until 7 or 8 months. Your job is to watch your baby’s signs and silent clues they are giving you.

When you get the thumbs up on the following questions, you are good-to-go!

  • Can your baby sit on her own?
  • Is your baby able to hold her head and neck in an upright position?
  • Does your baby reach for, or eye, your food while you are eating?
  • Is she hungry more often and not satisfied after finishing her usual amount of breast milk or formula?
  • Has her weight doubled since birth?

How Much Should Baby Eat

While some babies open their mouths and instantly become an eating machine, other babies might take a while to discover their foodie personality. For the first couple of months, let your baby decide when and how much they want to eat. This might mean 1 teaspoon or 6 ounces. Babies are born with a natural ‘stop’ button in their tummies, so when they are hungry, they will eat and when they are full, they will stop.

To begin a feeding, start baby with 1 tablespoon of warm-to-touch puree. You can spoon-feed her, dollop a couple of spoonfuls on her tray and let her have at it or put some puree on your finger and let her lick it off. Or a combination of all three.

This feeding routine can take a while for both of you to get comfortable with, the key is not to give up. Stay focused, relaxed and happy.

As hard as it is to not feel rejected when baby doesn’t like one of your purees, don’t get overly concerned. If at any point baby is turning her head, fussy or just not in the zone, put the unused portion of the puree back into the fridge and try again later. Just like walking, eating may take a while for baby to master.

Spices for Baby

This is the question I get asked most – can baby actually eat spices from the get-go?

The simple answer is YES! From the very first puree, baby loves to taste different spices and herbs. It is natural for baby to crave and eat foods that are not only colorful and healthy but that also taste good and stimulate baby’s palette, just like yours and mine. While not a guarantee, my experience is that babies that are introduced to foods with spices and herbs from an early age, grow up to be more open to foods with different tastes and textures.

I would also like to mention that all spices and herbs have medicinal purposes. Ginger is great for when baby’s tummy is upset, basil helps aid sleep(!!!) and cinnamon is proven to stimulate the brain.

All the recipes below are completely safe for baby at any age. If you are unsure of adding spices, I would recommend starting with just a pinch of the spice in the recipe for the first batch, adding more spice as baby becomes more accustomed to it.

Now it’s time for the 10 Super Start Baby Food Recipes!

Foreword

Nutrition - what could be more important for a growing organism? How your baby begins to eat when you wean him will affect his future development and perhaps even adulthood. In our time, in industrially prepared products, one can find a lot of food additives, flavoring and coloring, which are not at all useful for a small person - and in these conditions the importance of homemade food increases many times over. nine0005

The basis of human nutrition is meat, fish, dairy and sour-milk products, various vegetables and fruits, buckwheat is obligatory for cereals. Vegetarianism, fasting for children is unacceptable, and canned food at an early age is undesirable.

It is best to cook your own food from food purchased raw. It is advisable to buy meat and fish in a piece and not give a small child store-bought convenience foods. Remember that when preparing children's dishes (up to 8-10 years old), hot spices are not added. nine0005

Starting at about a year old, a child can get many meals from an "adult" table. It must be remembered that the child has already learned to chew and swallow rough food, but can he bite well? Gradually, the child must be accustomed to more and more varied foods, while noticing whether this or that product will cause an allergy. Unfortunately, this problem is now actual. Eggs, honey, later - chocolate and citrus must be introduced under control. But in our time, any products can give an undesirable reaction, which is why parents need to be careful. nine0005

If up to a year the child's diet mainly consists of pureed soup, cereals and mashed potatoes, then after a year it is already possible to give meat in the form of fried or baked cutlets, casseroles, meatballs; vegetables and cereals - not only in pureed form, but also in the form of pancakes, vinaigrettes, you can give raw vegetables, rye bread. The wider the set of products, the more fully and fully the child's need for proper nutrition is satisfied.

  1. Step 1:

    How to make Kindergarten Meatballs with Gravy? Prepare the necessary ingredients. If you wish, you can take the already prepared stuffing, and not twist it yourself, as I do. I have a pork tenderloin with a little fat. Rice take round or long, choose for yourself. Rinse it well. Peel and wash the onion.

  2. Step 2:

    Fill the pot with water. Transfer the rice to a saucepan and place it on the stove. Boil the rice until tender, adding salt to the water. I added two cups of water to half a cup of rice. nine0005

  3. Step 3:

    Drain the cooked rice in a colander and drain completely.

  4. Step 4:

    Mince the pork together with the onions. For convenience, cut the onion into 4 pieces (remember to remove the buttocks).

  5. Step 5:

    Add boiled rice to minced pork.

  6. Step 6:

    Beat a raw chicken egg into the minced meat.

  7. Step 7:

    Salt.

  8. Step 8:

    Pepper. And mix the minced meat well with a spoon, and then with your hands.

  9. Step 9:

    With wet hands, shape the minced meat into balls. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of wheat flour into a flat plate. Roll each meatball in flour on all sides.

  11. Step 10:

    Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil on the stove. Fry the meatballs, carefully turning them over on different sides. They need to be browned. nine0005

  12. Step 11:

    This is what I get when I fry them. Please note that the meatballs must fit in the pan all.

  13. Step 12:

    For the sauce, mix the tomato paste with water in a deep bowl. I have one glass of water.

  14. Step 13:

    Pour the tomato sauce over the meatballs in a skillet and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes. Determine the exact time on your stove.

  15. Step 14:

    Separately, in a bowl, mix the sour cream with a spoonful of flour. Pour in half a glass of water and stir until smooth. To make the taste of the sauce more pleasant, you can pre-fry the flour in a dry frying pan until the color changes slightly.

  16. Step 15:

    Pour the sour cream and flour mixture into the meatballs and simmer for another 10-15 minutes covered over low heat. At this stage, you need to achieve the desired density of the gravy. My family likes it thinner, so I added another 0.5 cup of water. nine0005

  17. Step 16:

    Then add the bay leaf to the dish, simmer for another 2 minutes and turn off the heat.

  18. Step 17:

    Call the kids to the table and try it yourself! Our meatballs are ready like in kindergarten!

  19. Step 18:

    Any side dish is suitable for them: potatoes, porridge or, as in my case, pasta) Bon appetit!

Everyone knows the taste of these meatballs! When my children came from the garden once again praised the garden meatballs, I started looking for this recipe to reproduce it at home) I won’t say that the technology is 1 in 1, but the taste is definitely from childhood, you can’t confuse it with anything! Even the kids asked: "Mom, did you take them in kindergarten?" nine0005

Use high smoke point oil for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the smoke point, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances are formed in it, including carcinogens.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoke point. They have a lot of unfiltered organic particles that quickly start to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heat and have a higher smoke point. If you're going to be cooking in the oven, pan, or grill, be sure to use oil with a high smoke point. The most common high smoke point oils are refined sunflower, olive and grape varieties. nine0005
