Peuleschil Organic Broccoli Seeds

Broccoli seeds belong to the Brassicaceae family, the family of cruciferous vegetables. Numerous studies conducted in recent years have shown that sprouts of cruciferous vegetables, and especially broccoli sprouts, contain certain compounds (glucosinolates). Broccoli sprouts can be used as a sandwich topping, in salads, in mashed potato dishes, or added to soup just before serving.

Instructions for use
1. Place one to two tablespoons of seeds in a preserving jar and add plenty of lukewarm/warm water. [Any glass jar is suitable, provided it is large enough (min. 1.5 litres) and its neck does not narrow (too much).]2. Secure a plastic or fibreglass fly screen mesh onto the jar using a strong (postman's) elastic band. Preferably do not use aluminium fly screen mesh as it is sometimes treated against insects.3. After the indicated soaking time¹, drain the water, rinse the seeds, and drain the water again.4. Place the jar at room temperature, tilted upside down in a colander, rack, or tray so that excess water can drain away.[It is important that all the water can drain away; the water that clings to the sprouts is sufficient to keep the sprouting process going. It is also important that the seeds/sprouts do not cover the entire mesh. For good results, it is crucial that there is sufficient air circulation. Therefore, after each rinse, spread the seeds/sprouts along the length of the jar.]Do not place the jar with seeds/sprouts on the heating or in direct sunlight!5. Rinse the seeds/sprouts approximately 3 times a day during the indicated cultivation period², and then place the jar tilted upside down each time.6. After the very last rinse*, allow the sprouts in the jar (tilted upside down) to grow dry at room temperature for at least 18 hours before consuming and/or refrigerating them.* If desired, the last rinse can be replaced by a 'washing procedure' to remove husks from the sprouts:-Fill a basin or similar container to the brim with lukewarm/warm water.-Add the sprouts and 'wash' them loose.-Skim off the husks by 'wafting' them over the edge of the basin.-Scoop the sprouts out of the water by hand and return them to the jar.-Reattach the mesh, place the jar tilted upside down, and allow to grow dry at room temperature for at least 18 hours.Store leftover sprouts chilled (max. 7°C) and covered (not airtight).¹ Soaking time: ± 6 hours* Cultivation period: ± 4 days
