Omelet for a child of 1 year - 3 recipes, how to cook in a slow cooker, in the oven and in a pan

The most common egg dish is scrambled eggs. But the technology of its preparation for adults and children is somewhat different. Today I will share omelet recipes for a 1 year old child - in a slow cooker, oven and boiled in a bag.

Products for baby food should be of high quality and as fresh as possible.

When choosing eggs, pay attention to the following points:

1. The condition of the shell. It should be slightly rough, without cracks and damage.
2. The size. Do not buy eggs that are too large - they are already carried by middle-aged chickens, which affects the taste of the product. Better to take small or medium size. Most often, such instances are obtained from young and healthy birds.
3. The weight. The average weight of a chicken egg is 55 g. If it is too light, this indicates long-term storage. A lot of moisture had already evaporated from the contents and the product began to deteriorate.
4. Sound when shaking. If you shake a fresh egg, you will not hear anything. A gurgle is a sign that it has been lying for a long time.

Tip. Returning from the store, conduct another test - dip the egg in a glass of water. Fresh will sink, and what has been stored for a long time or has already gone bad will come up.
