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 wheat

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
KEEP PACKAGING of sensitive products to prove gluten-free
Check LABELS even for 'obvious' products (e.g. tomato sauce sometimes contains wheat)
Take out 30 min before for better incorporation

Add the cooked yellow bell pepper mashed into a smooth purée
Fold in the cooled cooked buckwheat
Add the binder (silken tofu)

Adjust the texture (buckwheat flour if too sticky)
Shape with oiled hands
Place on a tray

3. Cooking (steamed)

14 min

Bring water to a boil in the steamer
Arrange the shapes in the steamer basket
Leave 2 cm between each shape
Cover and steam for 12 min
Check cooking halfway through
Remove when shapes are firm and hot
