Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Does anyone have one of these? I saw them in a magazine and they looked interesting. Also how do you sprout the beans such as mung etc? Fausta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I have a counter top sprouter. It works really well with the right sprout seeds.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 I have a couple of counter top sprouters which I use all the time. I sprout a lot of seeds - alfalfa, sunflower, mustard, cress, broccoli, fenugreek, radish, as well as mung and adzuki beans. They are great added to salads or sandwiches or I just sprinkle them on top of a stew as I am serving it up and of course bean sprouts are great in stirfry, as are peanut sprouts (although I've never tried sprouting them myself) Sprouted seeds and beans are a good source of vitamins and minerals and they all taste great and are wonderfully fresh.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 My son-in-law uses these special jars with holes in the lids, like screen almost. He sprouts all kinds of beans. I am not exactly sure how he does it, but I see him add water, put the lid on, then set them on the side of the drainer to drain out. He has those jars all over the kitchen upstairs. When you take out a bunch of the sprouts, they seem to just keep coming. I could ask him exactly how he does it if you want me to get a better description for you Zelda San Francisco, California Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I got my Kitchen Crop Seed Sprouter from Amazon on Wednesday. It has three levels and the water drips down from one level to the next. I picked up two packets of greens seeds and a packet of radish seeds at my local Orchard Supply. All are sprouting nicely. And I have alfalfa, zesty mix, and mung seeds on the way from iHerb. So I guess I'm well on my way to being a sprout farmer!

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I have a couple similar to that, Mike, and have mung beans and alfalfa seeds sprouting at the moment. Have fun!
