Radish
Radishes are a crisp, peppery vegetable that can be introduced as early as 6 months once cooked until soft. They add a exciting new flavor profile to your baby's palate as they explore more pungent tastes.
Zo serveer je het
Steam or boil until soft, then serve in large, graspable wedges or mashed.
Chop into small, bite-sized pieces for pincer grasp practice.
Serve cooked, thinly sliced, or grated into salads or pasta.
Voedingswaarde
Radishes contain vitamin C and fiber, which support immune health and healthy digestion. While not as nutrient-dense as other veggies, they provide small amounts of potassium and calcium. They are a great way to introduce variety beyond mild, sweet vegetables.
Goed om te weten
Dit voedingsmiddel kan verslikkingsgevaar opleveren voor baby's. Bereid het in een grootte en textuur die bij de leeftijd past, en houd je baby tijdens het eten altijd in de gaten.
Raw radish is a significant choking hazard due to its firm texture, so always cook them until fork-tender. While unlikely to cause an allergy, introduce them individually to watch for any digestive reaction to the sulfur compounds.
Tip
Roasting radishes with a drizzle of olive oil softens their sharp bite and brings out a lovely sweetness.
