STEP 1/27
The initial baby food ingredients were organic rice flour, Dongwoo's chicken, and broccoli. Rice powder is good for digestion because of its fine particles, and chicken is good for replenishing energy. I chose animal welfare chicken because baby food is for children. I chose broccoli because it is high in antioxidants and calcium.
STEP 2/27
Chicken broth should be served, but baby food should not have too much fat, so you should make broth with chicken tenderloin and breast meat. I trimmed the chicken breast and tenderloin, but you can use a product that is separated from the chicken breast and tenderloin are separated.
STEP 3/27
Remove the foam from the broth when it boils.
STEP 4/27
When the chicken broth cools down, add rice powder and mix finely. When the broth is hot, if you put rice powder, the rice powder will ripen and clump together like rice cake, so you have to cool it and fold it. If you don't have time, fold the rice powder in cold water and mix it with the broth and stir it.
STEP 5/27
After 10g of broccoli is ground with 200ml of water, strain it through a sieve to remove large particles and mix it with rice.
STEP 6/27
Broccoli chicken meat, an early baby food, should be cooled down and filtered through a filter because there should be no particles.
STEP 7/27
For the mid-to-late baby food, we prepared Jinbap, broccoli, Dongwoo's chicken, shiitake mushrooms, soaked black beans, and carrots. Mushrooms are high in potassium, and carrots are good for the eyes because they have a lot of fat-soluble vitamin A. Black beans have a lot of protein, which helps form nails and hair.
STEP 8/27
Chicken breast and tenderloin have a low domestic consumption rate, but they are high-quality food materials in foreign countries, and they are popular because they are low in fat and high in protein. Like the initial baby food, serve the broth with chicken breast and tenderloin. (You can choose between tenderloin and chicken breast.)
STEP 9/27
Shred the crushed shiitake mushrooms and carrots in a pan and stir-fry them without adding oil. Even if you don't add water, it's a vegetable with a lot of water, so it's fried without burning.
STEP 10/27
Put the ginbap in the pan. In the early days, rice flour was used for baby food, but after the mid-term period, the rice could be hard-boiled and fed, so Jinbap was used.
STEP 11/27
Add rice and quickly add chicken broth. Carrots' vitamins are fat-soluble vitamins, so they have a good combination of trace amounts of fat in chicken breast and tenderloin broth. Therefore, I recommend you to use chicken broth (meat broth) rather than regular water.
STEP 12/27
Grind the black beans finely, strain them through a sieve, and mix them with the porridge.
STEP 13/27
Grind broccoli finely in a blender and mix with porridge.
STEP 14/27
Add about 10g of chicken breast and tenderloin, tear it into small pieces and stir it with a spatula when boiling the porridge so that the ingredients can be torn into smaller pieces.
STEP 15/27
You have to cool down the finished baby food before you eat it. It was boiled while pressing down with a spatula, so when you actually finish it, you complete the porridge with a lot of fine particles. This method is more suitable for late-stage baby food than mid-term.
STEP 16/27
For the finished baby food, let's make a baby food that is different from the previous form of porridge and rice. Tofu and eggs, like beans, are rich in protein, so they are very helpful in forming nails and hair. Perilla seed powder is good for children after 7 months, but it has a lot of dietary fiber and is effective in removing carcinogens.
STEP 17/27
Blanch tofu once in hot water, drain as much salt as possible, and mash on top of the filter. Tofu is widely distributed on the market, and it may be GMO beans, so make sure to check if it is made of domestic beans.
STEP 18/27
If you mash it with your hand, not with a sieve, fine particles will not come out, so you must mash it with a sieve.
STEP 19/27
The tofu is very watery, so put it on the pan and stir it over low heat and drain it a little bit. One minute is enough.
STEP 20/27
Chop carrot and mushroom broccoli into small pieces and stir-fry lightly without oil.
STEP 21/27
Add steamed rice and perilla powder to pan and stir-fry just enough to mix with vegetables, then turn off the heat immediately.
STEP 22/27
Cut chicken into small pieces, mix with rice, and cool down.
STEP 23/27
Boil the eggs hard, remove only the yolk, and strain them through a sieve. I only used one egg because it's big, but depending on the size, 2-3 eggs are enough.
STEP 24/27
Put the prepared rice into small pieces, one and a half thumbs.
STEP 25/27
Roll the rice on top of the tofu and coat it with tofu.
STEP 26/27
Then mix in the finely filtered egg yolk. The egg yolk should be thoroughly mixed when the tofu is slightly moist.
STEP 27/27
The completed tofu egg chicken rice ball is a perfect baby food with good taste because of the combination of children's favorite color, soft texture of tofu, and taste of eggs.
I used similar ingredients to make baby food in the early, mid, and late stages because I wanted them to cook while checking their allergies. If the child's mother does not have an allergic reaction to the used ingredients, she often uses the ingredients and adds one or two new ingredients to check for allergies. That's why we added one or two ingredients each to improve nutrition and eating habits, while the nature of the ingredients in the early baby food, the mid-to-late, and the completion period are similar.
