What are Sprouts?

Sprouts are quite simply the tender shoots/sprouts of germinating seeds. They are one of the easiest foods you can grow indoors and take up next to no space in your kitchen. Sprouts are packed with protein, vitamins, enzymes and minerals and can provide a cheap, fresh, valuable addition to any diet. Lovely in salads, sandwiches or stir-fries.

What seeds can I sprout?

Most seeds, like peas, beans, grains and nuts can be sprouted. You should always use seeds from a reputable source, preferably organic. We sell all our sprouting seeds in 75g, 250g and kilo packs. As well as single seeds we also sell mixes.

Getting started

  • You will need about two teaspoons of small seeds or a tablespoon of the larger ones. The finished sprouts occupy a lot of volume so sprouting less is better to begin with.
  • Check your seed for any debris that shouldn’t be there, especially small stones. Rinse thoroughly then soak overnight in clean fresh water.
  • Drain and rinse again the following morning then put the soaked seed in your sprouting tray or jar. The seeds should be rinsed and drained a least once a day and placed somewhere with a light source.
  • After one or two days (depending on temperature and seed size) you will start to see small sprouts emerging. They should be ready to eat in about 4/7 days.
  • Sprouts are best eaten when small and delicate. You can have several different sprouts on the go at once. To ensure a regular supply soak and sprout successively. Rinsed and drained sprouts can be stored in the fridge for up to a week, so if time is short you could just do one batch a week and store them in the fridge to eat as you need.
