Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Wash cauliflower and remove leaves and the fibrous core; separate into florets with soft graspable stems.

  2. Steam until the entire floret, including its thickest stem, crushes easily when pressed.

  3. Trim any remaining hard stalk and choose serving shape for the baby's grasp and chewing skills.

  4. Cool and offer upright with close supervision.

Serving by Age

Offer steamed florets with a tender stem handle, checking both the head and stalk squash easily between fingers. Remove hard woody parts. Use smaller fully soft pieces as grasp skills develop, keeping baby upright and closely supervised.

6 months+

Very soft floret with an easy-to-hold tender stalk; never firm or woody.

9 months+

Smaller soft cauliflower florets or pieces appropriate to current chewing and grasp.

Allergen Information

The listed cauliflower has no intentionally added major common allergen; check any dips or additions.
