As they get bigger they grow shoots and will grow their first leaves. I simply soak the dried seeds overnight, drain and then rinse them two to three times a day.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I used these sprouts to make an egg white scramble recently.<\/div>\n<div><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_kufElHa-EkM\/TCoE6ACLa0I\/AAAAAAAACFw\/JgQOHGMz-Z4\/s1600\/IMG_0860_3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 276px;\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_kufElHa-EkM\/TCoE6ACLa0I\/AAAAAAAACFw\/JgQOHGMz-Z4\/s400\/IMG_0860_3.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488204490392431426\" \/><\/a> I cooked the sprouts with some shredded carrots, a thai chili and some dried chipotle pepper for a bit of smokiness.<\/div>\n<div><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_kufElHa-EkM\/TCoE559vscI\/AAAAAAAACFo\/BmrPlFK3Fx4\/s1600\/IMG_0853_2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 302px;\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_kufElHa-EkM\/TCoE559vscI\/AAAAAAAACFo\/BmrPlFK3Fx4\/s400\/IMG_0853_2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488204488763224514\" \/><\/a>After a few minutes in the hot pan I added beaten egg whites and scrambled them all up together.
