What can be sprouted?
Any seed or grain can be sprouted, as long as it is whole in its natural form, has not been treated with anti sprouting chemicals or has not been heat-treated. The soaking time of different seeds or grains varies from one to another. Here are some examples of approximate different soaking times: Sunflower seeds 6-12 hours Peas 12-18 hours Rye/spelt/wheat 12-18 hours Lentils 12-18 hours Buckwheat 6-8 hours Method of sprouting Whats needed: 250g dry peas – or other seed/grain – I have chosen Red Fox carlin peas, they are grown in England by Hodmedod. 1 Litre kilner jar muslin cloth elastic band
