Vegan Bites: Sprouting

Culling

 (Nut Milk) Bagging

 Observe & Record

Sprouting is a fantastic hands-on science & nutrition lesson.

It involves sorting (culling), soaking and sprouting 'tails' on seeds. grains, beans and pulses.

It encompasses the nature of Raw Living: to eat plant life in their most nutritious state.

Since leaves are not involved in the process, sunlight (photosynthesis) is unnecessary. 

But to keep your sprouts healthy (alive and mold-free), they require regular moisture and ventilation, hence the Nut Milk or Hemp bag or mesh-covered mason jars used for sprouting.

Seeds, grains, beans and pulses must be soaked, generally overnight but a few require as little as a couple of hours. "Sprout People" have a fabulous reference page for guidance. http://sproutpeople.org/growing-sprouts/sprouting-instructions/
