Keep an eye on

Do NOT buy a product without reading the label
Do not cut too large: choking hazard
Do not forget to remove fish bones (unless no fish)
Do not leave thick skin on vegetables
Do not add salt: baby's immature kidneys
⚠️ NEVER serve a product that may contain hidden peanut

Texture tip

Cut ALL pieces the same size for even cooking
For 12-18 months: thinner pieces (1 cm)
Test cooking with a fork: should be melting-tender

Check LABELS even for 'obvious' products (e.g. tomato sauce sometimes contains peanut)
Take out 30 min before for better incorporation
