Sprout Growing

Step 1
Examine your seeds for stones, twigs or other debris and remove it from the seeds. Rinse the seeds thoroughly in warm water to remove any dust or fine dirt.

Step 2
Place 2 tbsp. of the seeds in the glass bowl. Add three times more cool water, at 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit, than seed to the bowl.

Step 3
Mix the seeds with the spoon to remove any air bubbles around the seeds so the water makes contact with each seed.

Step 4
Soak the seeds for 12 hours. Drain the water from the seeds. Rinse the seeds again with cool water and drain them thoroughly.

Step 5
Cover the seeds with a tea towel. Place the seeds in a safe place away from direct sunlight at room temperature for 12 hours.

Step 6
Rinse the seeds every 12 hours for the next three days. During this time, the seeds will sprout. On day four, remove the tea towel and place the seeds directly in sunlight, to green up.

Step 7
Continue to rinse and drain the sprouts every 12 hours for the next two days. At the end of day six, your seed sprouts are ready to eat.

Step 8
Remove the seed hulls, if you like, and refrigerate the sprouts starting at 12 hours after they have dried out from their last rinse.
