Sprouts should always be washed before consuming. This is to remove any fungus and pesticide residue. The surplus stem should be cut off and the leaves should be discarded. Stale, smelly and dull looking sprouts should not be consumed. Avoid cooking, roasting or frying sprouts as they lose their nutritive value when exposed to heat.
You can buy packaged sprout grains, cook the sprouts as a side dish or bake with sprouted grain flours. Sprouted grains can be enjoyed in risotto, pudding, and sandwiches and alone. Usually retired people, pregnant ladies and kids should eat sprouts to stay fit and healthy.
Baking is very easy with sprout flour. It creates a really nice texture and has a sweet and less harsh taste as compared to regular whole wheat flour. You can combine millet with sprouts flour to make tasty bread.
