  • Pureed or Mashed Tofu: For younger babies, tofu can be easily mashed or pureed into a smooth consistency. It can be mixed with breast milk, formula, or vegetable puree to adjust the taste and texture.
  • Soft Cubes or Strips: For older babies practicing finger foods, soft tofu can be cut into small cubes or strips, making it easy for them to pick up and self-feed.

Common Allergies: Tofu is made from soy, which is a common allergen. When introducing tofu, do so gradually and watch for any signs of an allergic reaction in your baby, such as hives, difficulty breathing, or gastrointestinal discomfort.
