Sprouting Mung Bean - BULK BAG
Botanical Name: Vigna radiata
This BULK BAG of Mung Bean Sprouts contains 150g of seeds. They are supplied in a labelled ziplock bag instead of our usual branded retail packs. All Mr Fothergill’s Sprouting seeds are GMO free and microbiologically tested to be free of pathogens such as e-Coli and salmonella.
Mung Bean shoots are popular in curries, stir-fries, soups, salads and rolls. Grow in the dark for white shoots or bring into light for light green shoots. Use raw or lightly cooked.
How To Grow | Growing in a Mr Fothergill’s Kitchen Seed Sprouter: Spread about 1 tablespoon of seeds in one or more of the four clear plastic trays. Stack the clear trays on top of the bottom tray. Pour enough water into the top tray to cover the outlet. This will commence the siphoning action and water will drain down through each of the trays and outlets. When finished draining, empty any excess water from the bottom tray. The water that stays in the clear trays is enough to provide the necessary humidity for successful seed germination. Water in this way at least 2-3 times each day.
Growing into shoots: If you prefer the look of supermarket bean sprouts, rinse your fresh grown sprouts in a bowl of cool water and gently stir them around to remove the green hulls. Once rinsed allow the beans to soak in the cold water for a few minutes to become extra juicy. DISCARD IMMEDIATELY ANY SPROUTS WITH DARK BROWN OR GREY DISCOLOURING AND HAVE A PUNGENT SMELL |
