Technically, you aren't supposed to give seafood until the child is at least 2 yrs old. That being said, it actually isn't seafood if it's a freshwater fish. I would sughgest that you consult a doctor before feeding your child fish.Just bought a salmon fillet for my 10 month old.i m veg. dont have clue how to cook.can i have a recipe please
Pan fry... grilling is better. just make sure that it is the cooked pink through out. It is ok to feed your 10 month old fish. Salmon is the safest.
Salmon isn't good for a baby, especially farmed salmon which is the majority of what is sold in America today. If you buy Salmon, by Alaskan Salmon because it is illegal to farm there. Know your source though because you will often buy labled as Alaskan, and it isn't really caught there.





Farmed can have up to 200 times more fat then wild, they are also fed antibiotics to help control disease. They also contain higher levels of contaminants and dioxins which have been known to cause cancer, immune problems, and reproductive disorders.
bake it in the oven - buy a cook book
Why are you giving salmon to a 10 month old?!?!?





Just buy pre-cooked or mico- baby food.
the best place to find a good recipe for salmon is www.foodnetwork.com they have recipes for almost everything from difficult to easy ....Good luck
you could poach it in his usual milk with a bit of water . you only need to part cover it with liquid and it should cook to a nice tender texture, just keep stirring it or the milk will burn
You might have better luck getting recipe ideas in the food/drink category
fresh fish is great for kids!


just make sure he has small bites and chews well. also a slice of bread ready (it helps any bones go down)





grill it skin side down for 5 Min's then skin up for 5-6Min's





or steam it for 10-15 Min's (no need to turn)





it goes will with anything but for a kid some creamy mash and a parsley sauce





(don't give a kid fish that's stupid a kid should be eating at least a portion a week, better than turkey twirlers any day)





Good on you for getting him some and top kid for wanting to try it!





really check for bones though! and mash it! just noticed its 10 month on 10 years defiantly mash it!
I fed my son fish as soon as he could chew it. The best way to make salmon in my oppinion is place the fillet in a baking dish (like a casserole dish) and place tabs of butter on the fillet itself along with lemon slices (i like putting the butts of the lemon in the bottom of the baking dish for flavor) then i pour some white wine around the fish (the alcohol content completely dissapears when you cook it) Then last but not least i cover the fillet in finely chopped garlic and parsley. (bread-crumb is optional on this recipe-if you like it then put it on before the garlic and parsley, but over the lemon and butter) Then bake it for about an hour in a 350 oF oven


Delicious!! Baby should love it =)


I like to serve this dish with white rice and a side of broccoli (covered in cheese for me ) =)
I don't understand how you can be old enough to have a baby but not know how to cook fish.


Where did you grow up, on the moon?





anyways;





Check along the edges of the fillet for any bones.


place on a square of tin foil, about 12 inches square


squirt lemon juice on


a bit of salt and pepper is nice too


if you have any Rosemary (although that I doubt), sprinkle on too


fold the foil up like you're wrapping a present, but leave a space between the top of the salmon and the foil.


Roll up the edges, again leaving a space between the fish and the foil.


Place on a tray in the middle of the oven for 30 mins (to be safe) on thermo 6 or 7.


Take out, and serve with salad for you, and how about mashed potato for the baby?


Wash down with a fine chardonnay (for you that is !).
I wouldn't feed an infant fish. If your doctor said to give him more protein, give him some dark meat chicken or turkey--it's much better for him and if you poach it and cut it into teeny pieces, it'll be super moist.
Feeding a baby salmon is a bad idea there is to much iron in there for a 10 mo. old... that will mess up his digestiing. Dont give that to a baby....OMG
Salmon for a 10 month old?





The easiest way to cook salmon on the grill is to leave the skin on and close the grill's cover. The protective skin will become crisp as the dome reflects heat, cooking the salmon from above and beneath.





Steps





1. Preheat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.


2. Brush the skin-sides of the salmon pieces with olive oil, then place them skin-side-down on a well-oiled grill grate.


3. Cover the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. If any of the salmon pieces are cooking too quickly, move them to a cooler part of the grill. Continue cooking 5 to 7 minutes longer.


4. Top the grilled salmon with butter and lemon juice or your favorite sauce.
Keep it simple.Season if required. squeeze 1/2 lemon over.Cover in foil on tray and cook for 20-25 mins. I would suggest you make sure its well cooked in the centre if you are talking about a 10 month old baby. Have no kids myself so thats all the advice i can give. O watch for bones. Cook at 180 degrees.
hay, giv him what you eat but not raw,cause u can digest that but ma...y be he not.
I cook my son cod %26amp; salmon, check it has no bones first then just cover it in milk in pan %26amp; cook for about 10 minutes. you can mash it up with his veggies then.


I am a veggie too %26amp; don't really like to touch it but if you cut it into chunks first it will cook evenly. You can even use his formula milk to cook it in if that is what he still drinks


good luck x
all you people who said salmon is no good for a ten month old either have no kids or realy unhealthy ones, the quickest and easiest way to cook it is to pop it in the steamer for 15 min
steam or boil it or u could cook it in a pan or grill it just make sure its hot and cooked properly
10 Month olds should have fish and salmon is a good one to give. The oils in fish help the brain to develop and it also helps with concentration.


Bake covered with foil in the oven until the fish is cooked through, once it is cook, it will flake. It wil take about 15 mins. Salmon is yummy in cheese sauce with rice or pasta.
here is a recipe from annabell karmel book top 100 purees


Salmon suprise


200 g carrots


41/2 oz salmon fillet


60 ml orange juice


40g cheddar cheese


15g unsalted butter


2 tbsp full fat milk





Boil the carrots in a saucepan with just enough water to cover them, cook until tender.


Place the salmon in a suitable dish, pour over oj and scatter the cheese, cover leaving an air vent and microwave on high for about 2 minutes or until th efish flakes, alternatively, cover with foil and cook in the oven on gas 4 for about 20 minutes.


Flake the fish witha fork, carefully checking for bones, drain the carrots, mix with butter and milk, and puree in a blender with flaked fish and sauce. For older babies simply mash it up, this recipe is suitable form 7 months.





Why people say you can not give fish is beyond me, hope this helps


Some metals and pollutants, such as mercury and dioxins, can build up in fish. Mercury doesn't build up in the oily parts of fish (the parts used to make fish oil), but other pollutants can.





Pollutants such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which might cause harmful long-term effects, can build up in the oily parts of fish.





It's better to eat fish than take supplements because as well as containing omega 3 fatty acids, fish is an excellent source of other nutrients that will help your child grow and be healthy.





Eat at least 2 servings of fish a week, including 1 serving of oily fish [salmon, sardines and mackerel], as part of a healthy balanced diet. Oily fish contain more omega 3 than white fish. Fresh, frozen and canned fish, fish fingers and fish cakes can all count towards our weekly servings of fish.





Don't give your child shark, swordfish or marlin because mercury can build up in these fish and high levels of mercury can affect a child's developing nervous system.





You should also avoid giving more than 2 portions of oily fish a week to girls, or 4 portions to boys because of the dioxins and PCBs these fish can contain. There's no need to limit the amount of other fish your children have, apart from avoiding shark, swordfish and marlin.





Mercury and dioxins are also the reason as to why giving children other types of seafood is highly un-recommended.';
