Guest guest Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Dog gone Rice just won't sprout! Have any of you ever experienced this? I've been soaking this rice for well over a week now! The only reason I haven't tossed it yet is that I keep remembering how much is was per pound. But then again, Victoria Boutenko told me that in this life, you're sure to toss something out, make a mess in your kitchen and be WOWed or NOT by your creations.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 From my understanding, the Black/wild rice is no longer a live food, which is why it doesn't sprout It swells when soaked enough and splits, revealing a some white, that many (including myself) have mistaken this for sprouting..

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 My experience with sprouting has been that, if something wouldn't sprout, it was because I had soaked it in tap water. When I switched to soaking in distilled water, everything sprouted. I have never tried sprouting black rice, though. Helena--- On Tue, 4/21/09, E. Rice-Fells <shortydemp wrote: E.
