Sprouting Seeds Red Lentil Organic

Sprouting Seeds Red Lentil Organic are a lovely salmon pink in their dried form producing sprouts that are high in fibre, protein and amino acids, vitamins A, C, B complex and E, iron, calcium and phosphorous. Raw red lentil sprouts can be a bit peppery to the taste and make a good substitute for celery or green pepper in salads, soups and vegetable combinations.

Cultivation Advice 

• Soak seeds for the 8-12 hours in warm water.
• Drain off the water, rinse and empty the seeds into your sprouter if you have one or any tray / container.
• Set anywhere – in low light and at room temperature (70° is optimal).
• Rinse and drain every 12 hours for 2-5 days depending on required sprout size.
• When you rinse try not to disturb the seeds/sprouts.
• They need to stay where they are – to form a mass that is unmovable.
• When ready, transfer your sprout crop to a plastic bag or the sealed container of your choice and refrigerator.
• The sprouts are best fresh, but will store for up to 5 days if dry.
