mung and lentil beansprouts.

[Corris]

what do I do with them?

I have bought a sprouter, sprouted them.

And they look VERY unappetising. Do you cook them?

[rustylady]

How long have they been sprouting, and did you rinse them in clean water every day? Either add raw to salads or use in a stir fry.

[Bren In Pots]

I like them in omelets or a stir fry.

[Corris]

two days now, and yes. It's a commercial sprouter (Geo something) - so I've been following directions fairly carefully.

They just don't look very appetising.

[jps]

i sprouted some and didnt like them raw, my gf likes them so she had them.

will have to try some other seeds i think

[Bren In Pots]

Corris I leave mine in the sprouter until they have shoots/roots of about an inch long this time of year it can take up to 5 or 6 days.

^ ^ ^ Same as Bren.

I love spouted seeds in stir fry...its one of my favourite treats.

I use:
Pak choi
sprouting seeds
spring onions
edemame beans
large lump ginger
garlic glove
smige of soy sauce and maybe some thai fish sauce (if you are not vegan)
sesame seeds
carrots - very finely cut, or peeled using peeler
-or other veg that you like

with prawns (or possibly chicken or tofu)

fry in walnut oil (or nut oil)
and serve with
soba noodles

- super duper!

The ones you buy in the shops have been grown in total darkness, and compressed to make them straight.

The ones you sprout at home are curly (naturally) and greener ~ which is actually healthier. I add them to soups & stir fries, or sandwiches.
They're a low cost protein hit
