Footprint 14: More on Sprouts

Sprouting is very rewarding:

                                              On the left are alfalfa sprouts.  On the right are beet sprouts.

There are quick turn-around sprouts, like fenugreek [picture in an earlier post], and alfalfa, both of which take about three days to sprout.  Then there are the slower sprouts, like beet, which takes about ten days.  From the picture above, hopefully you will agree that the ten days are worth it.

So next time you invite someone round for supper, depending on the advance notice that you have, start a bottle of sprouts.  They are an enhancement to any salad, and indeed, any meal.
