Baby food recipes
Quinoa, one of the oldest grains of the Peruvian Andes, is cooked with apple and pureed into an iron-rich meal for babies. This recipe has no added sweetener and gets its sweetness from fruit alone.
Rinse the quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer under running water for at least 1 minute, rubbing the grains until the bitter-tasting saponin coating is gone.
Put the rinsed quinoa and diced apple in a saucepan with the water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, until the grains are tender and their tails have sprouted.
Let the cooked mixture cool slightly, then mash it with a blender or fork to a consistency suited to your baby’s eating skills.
If you do not rinse the quinoa thoroughly, the natural saponin coating on the seeds will leave a bitter taste. Do not skip rinsing.
Kinoayı tarifte söylendiği kadar durulamama rağmen hafif acımsı bir tat kaldı, galiba bizim kinoa markası daha uzun yıkanmayı gerektiriyor. Ayrıca püre benim bebeğim için fazla sulu oldu, suyu azaltıp tekrar denedim.
