Tomatillo
Usually introduced around 6 months
How to serve by age
6-9 months
Husk, wash, roughly chop, and cook tomatillos until soft. Stir into scoopable foods, or blend into a salsa to drizzle on baby's food.
Cooked, chopped or as a sauce, no husk.
9-12 months
Serve husked, cooked tomatillo in quarters. Roasted ridges help baby grip. Or use in salsa over eggs, meats, or tacos.
Cooked quarters, no husk, or as sauce.
12-18 months
Offer husked, cooked tomatillo in bite-sized pieces or wedges. Raw works too, but blend, finely chop, or thinly slice to reduce choking risk.
Cooked bite-sized or wedges; raw blended or thinly sliced.
