Hassle-free germination with the large sprouting kit
Do you want to prepare nutrient-rich sprouted foods at home?
Take advantage of this useful sprouting kit that will allow you to get
home sprouts in an absolutely simple and
efficient way.
The set includes two jars of 950 ml and
special lids with mesh. The mesh ensures sufficient air flow to
the germinating seeds and allows excess water to drain out after rinsing. For
maximum convenience, keeping things tidy and saving space, there is a
rack where you can safely place the jars bottom up, and a
bowl to catch any draining water.
The jars are made of clear glass, which is
non-toxic, does not react with stored food and is easy to
maintain, including dishwasher safe. The lids are stainless
steel. The metal stand and drip tray also ensure easy maintenance.
Sprouting has never been easier.
All about germination
Sprouting is an excellent way to increase the nutritional
value of a variety of seeds, grains or legumes. The sprouting process
is the first stage of growing a new plant, requiring a variety of substances
that are also beneficial to humans.
After sprouting, the seeds significantly increase their
content of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, and fiber.
Minerals are also in a form that is easier for our body to
absorb and utilize.
You can easily and affordably germinate seeds at home. Growing sprouts
promotes self-sufficiency and sustainability.
Benefits of germination
- Increased nutrient content
- Better absorption and usability
- A milder taste of seeds and legumes
- Restriction of bloating agents
- Reduction of heat treatment time
What can be sprouted
Any seeds of vegetables,grains or herbs are suitable for
germination. Legumes such as peas, beans, lentils, or mung
beans are often prepared in this way. You can also sprout sunflower, pumpkin or
flax seeds, radishes, buckwheat, alfalfa, barley, spelt or oats.
The sprouted seeds can be used in hot and cold cuisine. They can be
further processed into porridges, spreads, smoothies or dips, or used
to garnish soup, salad, pastries or dessert. But it is also possible to just
munch them raw as a nutritious snack.
Note
This kit is not suitable for germinating seeds that form a
jelly-like gel, such as watercress, chia or arugula. After
soaking this kind of seeds and the formation of a gel, the rotting process
starts. We recommend that you only dehydrate these seeds in a
germination 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.
