Sprouts - raw foods literally still growing while you re chewing on them. Sprouts - the freshness in its best. Sprouts - crispy health packed with nutrition... These are a few little connotations of mine to a word "sprouts".
When KC of Kitschow announced her Weekend Wokking edition started by Wondering Chopsticks, I knew exactly what I was going to make. Without trying sound too smart, wokking sprouts is easy........
........ all you need is a splash of oil, a sprinkle of salt, a handful of sprouts, splash of rice wine and soy sauce and two minutes of your time. The crispy wonder is ready :-)
A method I like ot play with is sprouting. Some time ago, I posted a detailed recipe on how to sprout mung beans. Today, I would like to share my way of making:
SPROUTED WHEAT BERRIES:
- wheat berries
- Sterilized glass jars with broad mouth
- Gauze
- Elastic band
- water
Put the glass side-down and leave. Berries need to be rinsed regularly 2 – 3 times daily. It is not necessary to take them out of the jar, just fill it with water, shake gently and strain through the gauze.
On the 3rd day stand the jar as normal and fill with lukewarm water. Lazy berries, that didn’t want to sprout will fall on the bottom of the jar. We do not want those, anyway. Throw them away and enjoy the fresh sprouted ones :-)
You can eat them just like that, in salads, pasta dishes, pizza, sandwiches..... I like them mostly fresh, but you can easily throw them in the last few seconds when wokking :-) Enjoy.
KC, thanks for introducing such a lovely blog to me, you know how much I love Chinese Food :-)
