Cultivation method:
Step 1: Soaking
Place the seeds in a wide-mouthed jar with a lid or screen. Rinse them under running water, add fresh water, and let them soak for 4 to 8 hours. Drain thoroughly and tilt the jar over a sink or bowl to allow the water to drain completely.
Step 2: Rinse and maintain
Rinse the seeds twice a day. Fill the jar with clean water, stir gently, then drain completely. Make sure the seeds remain moist but well-drained throughout the process.
Step 3: Harvest
Sprouts will be ready to harvest in 4 to 5 days. Once harvested, rinse them well, allow them to dry slightly, and then refrigerate them to keep them fresh. Sprouts store best when they are thoroughly dried; avoid refrigerating them immediately after rinsing to extend their shelf life.
