My dad is of the notion that ALL beans need to be soaked for at least 2 days with several rinses until they start to SPROUT.

See, beans have > greater nutritional value if they germinate prior to cooking them. > > According to dad....... ;-) It's actually supposedly true - upon sprouting they start to produce certain enzymes (? - been a few weeks since I read the nutrition paper on sprouted seeds) and such that aid digestion and the absorption of certain minerals, vitamins and trace elements. We have a 3 tier sprouter from BioSnacky - put the seeds in, different in each tier if you wish, pour a pint of clean cold water into the top tier, and it runs down wetting each layer - pour out and change the water once or twice a day, pretty soon you have lots of crunchy, tender sprouts for salads, stir fries etc. Mung beans are nice (typical Chinese bean sprouts), as are adouki (tastier than the mung IME), but one of my favourites was methi (fenugreek - got into the habit of calling it methi because we usually have it labelled that way in the Asian stores here) seeds - grown in shade, partial light or full light gives 3 slightly different tastes and textures. You can buy packs of mixed seeds especially for sprouting, that have a very tasty, spicy blend, almost hot - loved those in a salad, hmmmmm! Shaun aRe |

Mung bean sprouts, Alfalfa sprouts, radish sprouts.... and our >favorite, SUNFLOWER sprouts! Those are fabulous in salads and sammiches. Possibly more than you wanted to know about sprouts and sprouting: <http://www.primalseeds.org/sprouting.htm> Learnt something too in simply googling for "sprouting seeds", thinking I would get pages of instructions for doing the job. Instead, it seems "sprouting seeds" is also a retail line distinguished from those "ordinary" seeds which haven't been "through an amazingly complete cleaning", to quote one web site. :-) Cheers, Phred. -- LID |

Mung bean sprouts, Alfalfa sprouts, radish sprouts.... and our > favorite, SUNFLOWER sprouts! Those are fabulous in salads and sammiches. > ;-d Yup! Had all those! The radish ones were nice, quite a bite to them, same with some of the mustard type ones... Hey - this sprouter is really good BTW, much better than the other ones Kath tried (crap!!!) - just the simple way it works, is really effective - it keeps the seeds moist the whole time without drowning them, and there's plenty of space! You can basically use it as a perpetual sprouter if you rotate the tiers - takes 2 to 3 days usually. Shaun aRe |

I LOVE sprouts and have not had much luck with jar sprouting. Supposed to just be able to use a widemouth quart jar with a screen lid. Rinse every day and dump the water out the screen lid. Tends to be a bit too humid here sometimes so things mold. :-P I wonder if shelled sunflower seeds would sprout? I note that the ones I buy have the occasional shell in them so I have to pick those out prior to serving them. > > Shaun aRe - cheers Kat!

Yup - that's what Kath was doing for a while but got sick of it. The sprouter unit we have looks better inside than the first one I linked to - it doesn't have a simple grill bottom of each tier - it has grooves right across that hold just a smidgen of water as it drains from layer to layer - that seems to be good for the seeds to sprout quickly. > Tends to be a bit too humid here sometimes so things mold. :-P > > I wonder if shelled sunflower seeds would sprout?

Speaking of jar growing, I'm running an egg incubator right now for my bantam eggs as I lost a few to a predator. I'm wondering if 99 tp 101 would be good for growing yogurt!

Oh - We're actually drumming tomorrow in the town centre at Clitheroe, for the Clitheroe Great Days of Music festival - should be fun! Just last night re-skinned a djembe for one of the folk - it ain't gonna sound too great tomorrow (needs time to dry/settle/tuned up/played/repeat etc.) - hope she doesn't mind - I'd not been able to do it earlier because of my back and then the bloody insomnia - ugh! I justhope she understands, or I'm in deep shit LOL! Cheers Kat ',;~}~ Shaun aRe XX |
