Can children eat steamed eggs and tofu brain?

Patient's question:

The child is 6 months old. Can she eat steamed eggs and tofu brain? Will it be harmful if she does? What kind of assistance is needed: Can a 6-month-old child eat steamed eggs and tofu brain?...

Doctor's answer:

The child started receiving complementary foods at four months, but tofu pudding can only be introduced at 7 or 8 months. Advice: The methods for providing foods at different ages may assist you (excluding milk):
1 month: White boiled water
2-3 months: Vitamin AD (fish oil), 1:1 diluted juice and vegetable juice (can be homemade)
4-6 months: Starchy foods, rice porridge, rice powder, egg yolk (starting with 1/8 and gradually increasing to 1), noodle pieces, vegetable puree, thin porridge
7-8 months: Roasted steamed bread slices, biscuits, meat puree, liver puree, tofu, chopped vegetables, etc.
9-12 months: Meat porridge, noodle pieces, bread, noodles, fruits, etc.
Note: Sea fish, shrimp, crabs, and egg whites contain high levels of foreign proteins, which can easily cause allergies. Therefore, these foods should not be introduced too early or in excessive amounts. Additionally, when introducing complementary foods, provide one type at a time. Wait until the child has adapted to one before introducing another to avoid excessive gastrointestinal stress. If the child becomes ill or experiences physical discomfort (e.g., nausea and vomiting), stop introducing new foods until they recover completely.
