Food for Baby





Beautiful peaches from the farmer's market near my office called for cooking a little batch of food for my little boy.  I cooked 4 peaches, but I imagine you could do more or less as well. First, slice the peaches into eights.  (Don't worry about peeling yet) 
Next, place the peaches in a steamer basket over about an inch of water.
Steam the peaches for about 5 minutes until soft, but not falling apart.  Take the steamer basket out, cool the peaches, and peel.  The peels should come off easily.  Place in a blender.
 
The peaches are a brighter color, and the edges were slightly pink.  Blend until the right consistency for your baby.

Feed to baby, or store.  You can save home-made baby food in the refrigerator for three days, or freeze for two-three months.
