Serve plain or, even better, with mango salsa.*Note: The recommendation used to be to hold off on citrus until 12 months, though citrus zest has always been considered safe earlier. So, even if youre taking a conservative approach to baby food introductions, this dish is safe for any child already eating fish. If youre following the most recent baby food introduction guidelines, that may be earlier than conservatively recommended 10 months.

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Fish. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The GIFFT by Kathie Lee Gifford Pinot Grigio with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
