Fenugreek sprouts, seeds

Fenugreek sprouts have a high content of vitamins and minerals as well as 23% protein.

As a result of their ability to aid digestion, these sprouts are often eaten alone or in a simple salad with other sprouts. As a curiosity, these sprouts get a different flavor depending on whether they are grown in a light or dark room. This adds an extra dimension to growing fenugreek sprouts.

Sprouts are an extremely good dietary supplement, especially in the winter months, as they have a rich content of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, protein and much more, depending on the type of sprout. In general, they are also very low in fat.

Sprouts can be used in many ways. Traditionally they are used in salads, but they are also excellent in wok dishes, sandwiches, hot toasts/paninis or lightly roasted in, for example, olive oil and tossed in pesto and served over a pasta dish. Only creativity sets limits.

Cultivation:
Soak the seeds overnight. The next day they are spread out in the germination tray (see item number 4200). Keep in mind that the sprouts will quadruple in size during germination. Therefore, do not pour too many seeds into the same tray. Then let them germinate in a bright place with good air ventilation at room temperature. Rinse the sprouts 2-3 times a day until they are completely sprouted.

Germination time: The sprouts are ready in 3-5 days

Storage:
Sprouts can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, depending on the type of sprout. They are best stored in a sprouting bag (see more options by searching 4201 and 4202), as when stored in a plastic bag or closed box they cannot breathe and can therefore become slimy and spoil. In a sprouting bag, the sprouts can breathe and at the same time the material retains moisture. The bag also protects the sprouts from light. The sprout bag can be closed with the sewn-in ribbon.
