For a German event** I grow some sprouts on my window sill. I am totally surprised how fast the seed begins to germ. I didn’t know much about sprouts, so I decided to write about for the Weekend Herb Blogging event at Kalyn’s kitchen.
Chick peas contain about 20 % protein and are an important addition to rice. If you sprout them the content of vitamin C increases many times the amount. A lot of vitamic C helps to avoid a cold. To boost my body’s defenses against the changing temperatures between 0 °C and 8 °C attended with lousy weather in the North of Germany I prepared
Sprouted Chick Peas with Orange
A very delicious salad full of vitamins.

This recipe combines the nutty crunch of the sprouts with the sweet-tart freshness of citrus fruits Ingredients

Loved This
Okay, I am trying again with the comment. I love seeing WHB on a blog that’s only partly written in English. It shows again how people all over the world are interested in so many of the same things. Thanks for participating.
Sieht lecker aus, vielleicht muss ich doch noch zur Sprossenesserin werden. ;-)
Hast du zum „Spriessen“ ganz normale getrocknete Kichererbsen genommen?

Ja, diese hier von meinem Bio-Discounter:
This looks tasty. I eat a lot of sprouts but never steam them. Thanks for the idea.
REPLY:
Some sprouts like chick peas or soja must be steamed, otherwise they don’t agree with you!

Hi again,
I don’t think that they must be steamed. They can be eaten raw as well, many raw foodists eat tons of sprouted beans. They can be used in salads, hummus etc.
