Tofu tortilla baby food, carrot + corn flour + milk

Overview

When making complementary food for babies, the most challenging problem is: how to make the complementary food soft? Make it possible for babies without teeth to chew with their gums. The properties of small biscuits are very different from rice cereal. They can inspire babies to explore their own ways of chewing them. They can also be used as finger foods. Biscuits are indispensable in this complementary feeding process! But how to make cookies soft? I shared before how to make pancakes more tender, do you remember? The key to making the biscuits soft is to add more liquid, such as soaked milk powder, milk, or water. You can add more. The batter will be very thin and the biscuits will be soft. Today, let’s try a tofu tortilla that combines soft texture and rich nutrition. Reference age in months: 10M+

  5. Add cornstarch and milk (there doesn't seem to be much liquid here, don't forget that there is a lot of water in the soft tofu). For babies over 1 year old, you can add some sugar appropriately. After adding sugar, the cake will burn easily, so it must be fried over low heat. 🌻Tips: Whole grain cornmeal has high nutritional value and is rich in linoleic acid and vitamin E, but it has a rough texture and some babies don’t like it. Mixing it with tofu will greatly reduce the roughness and make it easier for babies to accept. It is recommended that babies over 12 months old add cornmeal. Babies under 12 months old and those suffering from diarrhea can be replaced with ordinary flour.

  8. Slightly round the mixed tofu, carrot and corn puree with your hands, put it into the pot and flatten it. Fry over medium-low heat. 🌻Tip: If you don’t want to shape it with your hands, dig it directly into the pot with a spoon, and then flatten it with the back of the spoon.

  9. When one side is set, flip over and fry the other side. When you see a clear darker color around the edges, you can turn it over.

  11. 🌻Reason for recommendation: Coarse grain cornmeal has high nutritional value and is rich in linoleic acid and vitamin E, but it tastes rough and some babies don’t like it. Mixing it with tofu will greatly reduce the roughness and make it easier for babies to accept. The biscuits made from tofu are extremely soft and can be chewed by babies without teeth.
