How to make Sprouts at Home
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Green Moong Dal (Whole) or any other sprout/legume/seed
- Water
Steps
- To begin making the sprouts, soak the grains or legumes, completely immersed in water for at least 12 to 15 hours. You will know it's soaked enough, when you take a bite and it feels good to eat.
- At this stage, drain the water. Place the soaked grains/legumes in a wet muslin cloth and sprinkle some water over the grains. Place the muslin cloth with the soaked grains in a bowl and cover it lightly with a lid so there is air circulation.
- When you notice the muslin cloth is dry, sprinkle some water on the cloth, so there is continuous moisture in the cloth. The moisture and air will help the grains/legumes sprout. The process of sprouting will take at least 12 hours based on the size of the grain or legume.
- Once you notice the grains/legumes have sprouted, transfer them to a storage container and store them in the refrigerator for about a week and use them as desired.
