Superfood Sprouts

I came across a book in the local library about superfood sprouts. So, I decided to give it a try growing them. I ordered a few different seeds from TheSeedCollection and they arrived soon after.

The first seed is alfalfa:

They are the tiniest seeds and I was a tad concern when I saw them, as I wasn't sure how much I should put in one tray. I also planted another tray 2 weeeks after to get continuous supply. They turned out alright:

I put them in sandwich and salad. They taste super awesome. 

The second one is Japanese Radish:

They taste milder than radish and they are yummy in curry and also sandwich and salad 

The third seed is Sweet Pea. I'm very familiar with the look of them because of the mulch I frequently use. 

This is my son's favourite as they are sweet and crunchy. I put them in his sandwich, stir fry and curry when I put the radish sprout on mine.

The last sprout is Fenugreek:

I don't have the photo of the seeds for some reason. The problem I've been having with Fenugreek sprout is the seed shell. Some of them are quite tough to eat and I'm still unsure on how to avoid this from happening. 

I also still need to figure out a better seed raising medium to minimise waste. These sprouts are supposedly can be consumed root and all. At the moment I'm only harvesting the top bit and composting the medium and the root.

All in all, it's very fun to grow your own sprout. They are so easy to harvest and use in different style of meals as well.
