Do you like eating bean sprouts? Actually, bean sprouts are a fairly common home-style food, and most families eat them quite often. But have you ever thought about growing bean sprouts at home yourself? It is not difficult at all. Many people have a vegetable-washing basin at home, and kitchen paper for absorbing water. With just these few simple tools, we can grow tasty bean sprouts. Bean sprouts sprouted at home are, first, really cheap, and second, more reassuring, safe and healthy. Now let's give it a try together with the editor.

The first thing we need to do is soak our beans well. The beans must be soaked on schedule, otherwise beans that have not soaked long enough will not sprout tasty bean sprouts. The editor usually soaks them for one night, then plants the bean sprouts the next day.

After soaking the beans, we can first lay a layer of kitchen paper in our own vegetable-washing basket. This is to separate the water; with no water below, the bean sprouts will not grow downward. Then we spread the beans on top, and place another layer of wet paper towel over them.

Next is the most important part. The editor usually covers them with two layers of towel on top to block out light. Everyone should know that during the sprouting process, bean sprouts absolutely must not be exposed to light, otherwise our bean sprouts will change color, and there will also be a change in taste, becoming very bitter. This kind of bean sprout is said to be toxic and cannot be eaten.

So to be safe, after covering with the towel, the editor also hides the vegetable-washing basket in a cupboard, only opening it once a day when watering, watering through the towel, so the bean sprouts will not encounter light and will not change color. Have you learned it now? Bean sprouts grown this way are white and tender, and very safe. Why not give it a try right now!
