Germination has never been easier.
All about germination
Sprouting is a great way to increase the nutritional value
of seeds, grains or legumes. Sprouts are the first messengers of a new plant,
requiring many nutrients for growth, which are also beneficial for humans.
After sprouting, the seeds significantly increase their
content of vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, fiber, and minerals, all in
a form that is easier for the human body to absorb and
utilize.
You can easily and affordably germinate seeds at home. Growing sprouts
promotes self-sufficiency and sustainability.
Benefits of germination
- Higher nutrient content
- Improved nutrient absorption and utilization
- A milder taste of seeds and legumes
- Lower content of flatulence-causing substances
- Shorter heat treatment time
What can be sprouted
** Any seeds **of vegetables, grains or herbs are suitable for germination.
** Legumes **such as peas, beans, lentils and mung beans are also often
sprouted. Sunflower, pumpkin and flax seeds, radishes, buckwheat, alfalfa,
barley, spelt, oats and many other seeds can also be sprouted.
The sprouted seeds can be used in hot and cold cuisine. Whether you decide to
cook them e.g. in porridges or soups, blend
them into spreads, smoothies or dips, garnish a salad, pastry
or dessert with them, or just eat them raw.
Note
This kit is not suitable for germinating seeds that form a
jelly-like gel, such as watercress, chia seeds or arugula. The
reason is that soaking this type of seed initiates a rotting process. We
recommend sprouting these seeds only by misting them on a tray.
Method of use
Soak the seeds in water, rinse them thoroughly, and remove
any damaged pieces or impurities. Use only whole, undamaged, chemically
untreated and unhulled seeds for germination, ideally of organic quality.
- Place the seeds in a jar, screw on the lid, and fill the jar with water
until it's about three-quarters full. Leave soaked at room
temperature for 5–12 hours (depending on seed type).
- Then pour off the water and rinse the seeds. Turn the jar
upside down, place it in a rack and place it on a flat surface
near a window at room temperature of about 20 °C, out of direct sunlight.
Rinse 2–3 times a day with cold water, ensuring you drain it
each time.
- After a few days, the seeds germinate. The length of germination depends on
the type of seed and the ambient temperature. Sprouts are immediately
ready to eat.
- It is also possible to continue to store them in the
refrigerator, where their growth will slow down. Rinse them with water
before eating.
