Sprouts



Sprouts seem like such a novelty to me. Living in Maine makes it pretty hard to grow anything for about 5 months of the year, even indoor. BUT (!) sprouting make me feel like I have a little winter garden. I've got a lot more experimenting to do (grains, beans, seeds, etc)

To be honest, I don't even use a jar with cheese cloth. I soak the beans overnight and leave them in a bowl with loose cover, out of direct sunlight for three days. I rinse them two to three times a day until they sprout to desired length. To store I dry them out a bit and then into the fridge. EASY and good to munch on.
