Can spice tolerance be learned? And if so, how can a parent go about teaching it while respecting their child’s preferences?
Anyone who spends time around young children can attest to the fact thatare common. Bold flavors ― especially those that involve heat ― often take little kids by surprise, and many react to the unfamiliarity with loud and adamant refusal. My almost-2-year-old niece, for example, is a mini foodie who loves just about every dish she tries … unless hot peppers are involved. One bite of salsa or guacamole, and she’s in full meltdown mode.
“Start with a small amount to get your little one familiar with the ingredient and gradually incorporate it into more and more meal occasions,” she said. “Adding these spices can help expose your little one to a range of flavors and ingredients, helping to mitigate a future picky eater.”Advertisement
“Start with a small amount of spice and serve with foods your child already enjoys,” advised registered dietician. “For instance, this might be in the form of a spicy dip to go with favorite finger foods, or a spicy sauce or gravy served with noodles, pasta, rice or potatoes. Increase the spiciness gradually, as your child’s tolerance evolves.
