First food : Plum




How to select and store plums for baby food?

Plums are one of the foods least contaminated with pesticides so purchasing organic is your choice.


Like many other fruits, plums are very delicate. While plums will store well, you should purchase them for use within a week as the longer they are stored, the more they become bruised and softened. Choose plums without bruising, soft spots or cuts.



Ingredient : Ripe Plum

Directions:
- Use any number of ripe plums as you desire.
- Wash plums thoroughly.
- Carve an X into 1 side of the fruit.
- Place X side down in a pan with an inch of water.
- Bring water to a boil and steam until soft and tender.
- Peel fruit and remove seed.
- Blend to puree form.
- Serve.

Remarks: Mommy In-in used black plums.
