Can you suggest a good way to utilize the sprouts? What type of dressing would you use if you ate just the sprouts? Do you purchase your mung bean seeds at a particular location? Having Fibromyalgia, I'm trying to change my diet, get healthier. Encourage my husband to do the same thing. We have a low salt diet, but it's hard to get more greens. So maybe sprouts will help me some.
You can add the sprouts to your salad, soup, and sandwiches. If you and your husband are trying to take in more greens, make a lettuce, spinach and kale salad and add sprouts to the salad with any dressing of your choice. Sprouts are very crunchy. I had the salad the other day and it was really good! Hope this helps :)
@@DaisyCreekFarms Thank you, do the different seeds have a huge flavor difference? Or do they all taste like greens. I love salads but my husband isn't into it much. So sprouting just the sprouts for me may be what I do. Darn farm boys. 😆
Different seeds have very different flavors. Radish seeds taste very spicy just like radish. Mung Bean Sprouts are a bit sweeter when 3 days old but have spicy and even bitter flavor when 5 days old. Peas are generally on sweeter side.
I finally found a video that makes this doable! Thank you for putting this video out there. Others were saying rinse every 2-3 hours for 6 days. Sorry, I have a full time job, and need my sleep
I'm sprouting mung beans for the first time. This is day two and I already have small 3/4" to 1" sprouts in my Mason Jar! Excellent! I can't BELIEVE how easy it is and when I think about how much I've PAID in the past for mung bean sprouts..... and I'm using old Clasico spaghetti jars! They're Mason jars and, instead of throwing them away, I now have a new use for them. I can't wait to try your ginger video! You have a new subscriber!
@@katkat3458 the only time you keep water in the jar is on the initial soak, you can do this overnight, then rinse 2 to 3 times a day draining the water each time. I recommend you watching the video again. I hope this helps 🦋
Thank you for this video. I believe that I like mung beans grown as a micro green better. One major reason is because I live in the very bottom tip of South Carolina and sprouts can get nasty. Then I get worried. But it also depends on what type of sprout. Like broccoli is not that big of a concern. Wheat to make sprouted wheat bread is not that big of a concern. But I will tell you the major take away I love from this video. The cheese cloth towel. I do you need something more protective over the top of my sprouts then just the green sprouting jar lid. I also love the way that the sides of the towel draped down to protect the bottle of sprouts from sunlight.
I only use wide mouth mason jars. I only put less the 1/3 cup of mug beans with non clohrwater. 1 quart jar. 3 times day rinse and hide in black cloth. I have longer sprouts for cooking😊
I like a mason jar for things like broccoli sprouts for eating. But when I'm sprouting for my garden I prefer to place them in a damp paper towel, then put inside a zip lock bag, then put somewhere warm, covered in a cloth to keep the light off. I don't touch them for maybe 4-7 days like that. Very simple and usually quite successful. For the mason jar you have to remember to water at least once a day and when doing so you disturb the sprouts and possibly damage them. This is fine for eating but maybe not fine for growing. I wouldn't do the zip lock method for eating sprouts, they'd be too funky. Rinsing them at least once a day using a mason jar certainly prevents that.
I bought a set of lids online which are a white plastic ring and a metal screen for the center. You don't have to take the top off, you can add water and strain it out using the lid.
so from what i understood, soak beans in water in the jar. put cheesecloth. then say after 6 hrs drain and replace the water. do that 2 times a day. what do i do overnight? do i soak the beans in water overnight or do i drain them and then fill with water the ff day? also,, how long do i let it stay in the dark before replacing the water again?
If anyone here is concerned I just picked up 12 Golden Harvest Mason Jars from my Dollar General for under $10. It's a non-issue to stick with glass. I'm sterilizing a couple right now for sprouts.
I know this ISN'T a canning video, but for any canners who may be thinking of buying Golden Harvest jars to can because the cost is better- they are not the same diameter as ball jars (a little wider I believe), which will affect how many jars you can fit in your canner. So you won't be able to pressure can as many of these jars as a time as you could standard Ball jars.
Yes, it's okay to cook. Cooking would be ideal to kill any potential bacteria that may be left on the beans while sprouting them. You can eat them raw though. I just prefer them sauteed.
Green beans when they are actually green are for delicacy but they need to be cleaned used. Harvested crops are machine task but plucked crops fresh tasty in different sense really grIn..
Which sprout faster, mungbean or radish. If you put them together, which will interfere with the growth of the other? I would really appreciate if you would respond.
I tried this mason jar method..i felt like half of my moong beans arent properly soaked though I have soaked them for 12 hrs..what could be the possible issue here ?
$1.79 at my oriental market for a 14 oz bag. Depending on the market you can pay up to $4 for a bag. And if you dont eat them all within a week they go bad. At least this way you can grow as many as you want at a time. So yes, cheaper than buying unless you need them right away.
Wrong. A thin white cloth will not shield the light. It must be dark. That is why those beans are sad & tiny. Also cheap plastic bottles are NOT designed for reuse and they are marked as such. You also need to state the water quantity to 1st soak them in, which is important and beginners would not know - 2 parts water to 1 part beans.
How do you all eat Mung Bean Sprouts? Someone sent me the clip from the Office on it!! haha!

I'm making them for my parrot 🥰
I use the mason jar method but really appreciate the options that will allow anyone to grow sprouts.
I finally found a video that makes this doable! Thank you for putting this video out there.

I really like his explanation of plastic leeching, near the end of the video

You have a new subscriber!
what do you do at night? do you soak the beans overnight or do you drain and then refill with water the ff morning?
Katrina Loreto I drained and refilled the Mason jar each morning. It took no time to get a nice harvest!
@@VictoriaEiland so,, your jar doesnt have water the whole night?
@@katkat3458 the only time you keep water in the jar is on the initial soak, you can do this overnight, then rinse 2 to 3 times a day draining the water each time. I recommend you watching the video again. I hope this helps 🦋
Love your videos! Planted my pea sprouts in coconut coir today and my mung beans in a mason jar. Thanks!
Update on them 😁?

Youre absolutely correct about those drinks in heated warehouses.
Thank you so much I'm hoping for a green thumb! We definitely need to grow food inside it's still winter in upstate NY and the emergency quarantines.
Lovely video. I am soaking my beans right now.
RED LENTIL beans are my favorites !
I love sports on a sandwich and pickled with radish! 😋
Very easy steps to follow. Thanks a lot.

The inner part of the lid doesn’t come off with the jars I have
Can I just fasten the cheese cloth on with a rubber band?

Thanks Awesome! You have the Coolest 💪😎background Music!🎼🎶🎵

I make them Indian style. Love ur videos

Great tips I love it
Thank you, Jag!
wow good ideas
I just wanna ask one thing that is it ok to cook the sprouts? coz in a recent vedio I have seen one health expert was saying u should cook sprouts.
Yes, it's okay to cook. Cooking would be ideal to kill any potential bacteria that may be left on the beans while sprouting them. You can eat them raw though. I just prefer them sauteed.
Green beans when they are actually green are for delicacy but they need to be cleaned used.
Harvested crops are machine task but plucked crops fresh tasty in different sense really grIn..

Mungbean definitely
I tried this mason jar method..i felt like half of my moong beans arent properly soaked though I have soaked them for 12 hrs..what could be the possible issue here ?
insufficient soaking water perhaps, soak 1 part beans in at least 4 parts water
It's a ton easier to grow in a round stainless steel container. They come out perfect. In a jar their a little too moist
What size is that bottle?
Cold water? Warm water? Hot water?
Tap water
I guess my sprouts are not too far off. I just want them to to grow long, juicy white parts. Oh well , still nutritious and edible
what if we dont have cheesecloth?
With pasta and soup
Is this cheaper than just buying mung beans from a supermarket?
$1.79 at my oriental market for a 14 oz bag. Depending on the market you can pay up to $4 for a bag. And if you dont eat them all within a week they go bad. At least this way you can grow as many as you want at a time. So yes, cheaper than buying unless you need them right away.
👍🏼😊
Wait these arent ready yet

IF you DO the plastic BOTTLE must be BPA free :-O
I read your :-O as screaming aaaah in satanic way.
Actually plastics do migrate into the water or food that is in them,carcenagenic,plastic is a NO NO
But your sprouts are not like the bean sprouts we see in the marketplace
