Sprouts

Pentti, Sarah’s dad, has always been interested in ‘health’, and grows lots of sprouts in jars in the windowsill to supplement his diet.

In this deep winter episode, Sarah takes the camera, films his method, and makes lunch with mung bean sprouts.

Grow your own sprouts at home! It’s so easy. Check these links for sprouting seeds and supplies:

Johnny’s Seeds has a good variety. BUY THE SMALLEST AMOUNT unless you want to start a sprout farm. They also have a great info sheet with directions here.

Assuming you have a wide mouth mason jar kicking around all you need is the screen lid, the cheapest I can find is $2.84 here.
