❤ Sprouting with Sattva
So why eat sprouts? Well, a healthy seed, once sprouted becomes a growing, live organism – no longer dormant – it activates different metabolic systems. Sprouts, in that moment of their life cycle, have a high level of vitality. They are packed with a high quantity of living enzymes, vitamins, minerals and proteins despite their tiny stature.
You’ll need:
-Large wide mouth mason jars
-Sprouting lids for jars ( but you can use cheesecloth and rubber bands over the top of the jars instead)
- Seeds, grains, nuts, or legumes (Do not sprout Kidney beans, lima beans, black beans
Let's get sprouting:
1) Put 1-2 Tablespoons of your sprout seeds in a jar.
2) Cover the with a cheesecloth and secure with a rubber band. Or screw on a sprouting lid with the smallest holes.
3) Cover seeds with at least an inch of water. Place jar in a dark place and let the seeds soak for 12 hours. (preferably before bed)
4) Rinse seeds two to three times a day. After rinsing, invert jar in a bowl at an angle to allow excess water to drain.
5) In a couple days, the seeds should begin to sprout. When they are sprouting, put them in a window sill to ensure they get some light (so they'll turn green!).
6) Remove hulls if needed. The Econo-Sprouter Topper has a lid with larger holes so you can rinse, shaking the jar, and allow the hulls to be rinsed away. If you're just using cloth, the hulls can be removed with a strainer or colander. But be sure to remove them, or they can get mouldy and ruin your sprouts.
7) Most sprouts should be ready within 4-6 days. Taste them to see if they are still bitter. If they are, add another day. When ready, rinse sprouts and cut off just what you need. The rest can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Happy sprouting!
