Bean sprouts are young, sprouted mung beans (eaten just a few days after sprouting). Bean sprouts are packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Iron. And thus a healthy addition to many stir fries at our restaurant. We make small batches of bean sprouts and use them right away in our meals. It takes 3 to 5 days to sprout the beans, so once a week works fine for us. BEAN SPROUTS Prep time: 2 minutes - Cook time 10 hours and 3 - 5 days - Makes 1 jar INGREDIENTS 1/2 cup mung beans (or other sprouting start of your choice) Water EQUIPMENT Jar Cheesecloth PREPARATION Rinse 1/2 cup of mung beans thoroughly, picking out any nasty-looking beans. INSTRUCTIONS Place the beans in the bottom of a jar and cover with several inches of water. Cover the jar with cheesecloth (or some foil with holes punched in it) and secure the cloth with a rubber band or jar band. Place the jar in a dark location at room temperature. Let the beans soak for 8 to 12 hours, or overnight. Drain the water from the beans and rinse the beans in the jar. Drain all of the water out of the jar, re-cover with the cheesecloth, and return to the dark location. At least twice a day over the next several days, rinse the beans in the jar thoroughly, drain the water completely, and re-cover. This prevents the beans from getting musty or moldy. Remove any suspect sprouts. When the sprouts have reached the desired size (around 2 to 4 days), remove them from the jar and rinse well. Eat immediately, or store dry in a container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days This recipe is made at the @THEFOODFORESTKITCHEN, the slow food restaurant of @ECOLOGICTHAILAND.
