Re: Taste As You Go: How To: Make and Freeze Homemade Baby Food {Sweet Potato Purée}

I'd either let the puree defrost in the refrigerator and then gently reheat in the microwave. Or I'd use the defrost setting on the microwave and then reheat.

Just be sure to stir the puree and test the temperature before feeding it to anyone.

Cooling down the purees in the fridge before putting the containers in the freezer and generally the better approach.

Putting warm food in the freezer will alter the temperature in the freezer, potentially putting other food already in there within the danger zone temperature-wise. Also, warmer food will take longer to freeze.

With this in mind, I'd advise against thawing frozen food on the counter at room temperature. It's best to try and plan ahead and allow the purees to thaw all the way through in the refrigerator... especially if you don't reheat the vegetables before eating them.

I'm not sure if you're freezer full 1-cup portions of the purees, but perhaps consider freezing smaller portions if you're worried about not finishing the whole container within a couple of days.

When I made my kids homemade baby food, I froze portions in ice cube trays. That likely won't work for your needs, so I highly recommend looking into a product like these silicone trays* from Souper Cubes. I use them to freeze homemade stock, etc. and I love them!

I hope this helps, Jodi!

Glad to hear from you, EJ! Yes, I do still make this dish from time to time. My husband has an issue with the smell of fish sauce, so it's a rare treat now. But it's still so delicious!

Your comment reminds me that I have updated photos for this recipe and should upload them to freshen up this post a bit!
