Unthawing and refreezing homemade babyfood?

Meat is the only thing you shouldn't freeze, thaw, and re-freeze. But if you're talking about peaches, it is fine. And the person who told you it would ruin the texture? Hello? It's baby food -- there is no texture to begin with.

Having said that, it sounds like such a hassle to make food, freeze it, thaw it, boil it again, re-freeze it, just so that you can thaw it out again. Take it easy on yourself.

No, you should not refreeze food. Too much bacteria can get in while thawed, and freezing does not kill it, only put in it suspended animation, so to speak. Freezing causes many foods, esp watery fruits, to become even more watery. One thing I like to do is simply mix in a little cereal or fresh puree of some sort in order to thicken it a bit.

Don't refreeze it. That can cause more bacteria to enter the food. I would suggest that if it is too watery when you thaw it, that you add a spoonful of rice cereal. Mix it in until the consistency is the way you want it.

No. Thawing and refreezing makes food kinda gross -- it ruins the texture.

You know you could just give her a slice of peach, right? Or if you feel you must spoon-feed, you could just take a ripe peach, peel off a bit of the skin, and scrape it onto the spoon? What you are doing sounds like a lot of unnecessary hassle and all the processing isn't doing anything good to the food...

Thawing Baby Food

once something has thawed it's not wise to re-freeze, but it will be ok in the fridge for about 2-3 days. I always froze weaning foods in ice cube trays then just took out the cubes needed for the next day and let them thaw in the fridge overnight. Saves a lot of waste.

No, thawing food and refreezing it can cause it to become inundated with bacteria. Don't do it.

I was curious about this too

thank you for the answers EVERYONE xx
