In recent years, food safety issues have become more and more serious. Dyed steamed buns, poisonous bean sprouts, etc. are now very common. As the saying goes, disease comes from the mouth. If the quality of the food we eat is not up to standard, it will have an impact on the health of our body. People who want to eat bean sprouts should make them at home, but many people don’t know how to make them. So how do you grow mung bean sprouts? The following is a method for growing mung bean sprouts.

How to grow long and tender bean sprouts at home?

First, what to prepare:

1. Beans: black beans, yellow beans, mung beans, whatever you like to eat, you can grow bean sprouts

2. Basket for growing bean sprouts. It is best to choose a vegetable basket with holes that can be ventilated and leak water.

3. A spray bottle. It is used to spray water on the bean sprouts every day during the sprouting process. (You can make your own by piercing a beverage bottle)

4. A piece of gauze of similar size to the bean sprout basket and a towel. It is best to use a white towel.

5. Prepare a water container that is slightly larger than the basket so that the water can flow directly into it, eliminating the need to mop the floor.

Steps for growing bean sprouts:

Step 1: Put the selected beans in a container, add warm water below 40 degrees, and soak naturally for 12-24 hours

Step 2: Place the prepared basket on the water container (four mahjong pieces are placed on the four corners of the container to prevent the beans from being soaked by water. If the beans are soaked by water, it will cause root rot)

Step 3: Place gauze on the basket and spread the fermented beans evenly on the gauze.

Step 4: Cover with a white towel and use a spray bottle to wet the surface of the towel

Step 5: Place the basket with the towels covered in a light-proof cabinet, cover the basket, and close the cabinet door.

Step 6. Use a spray bottle to wet the surface of the towel every morning and noon (remember not to open the towel when spraying). At night, when it gets dark, take the basket and rinse it under the faucet (flushing is to clean it and prevent root rot).

Tips: Generally, bean sprouts only need 5-7 days to germinate! If the temperature reaches more than 20 degrees, it can be eaten in 4 days

You can also use local materials and use beverage bottles that are available in every household to grow bean sprouts. The effect is very good!

There is an even simpler way:

1. Wash the mung beans and soak them in water. The water should just cover the beans. Pay attention to the capacity of mung beans. As the bean sprouts grow, the space will increase a lot.

2. Prepare a large cola or mineral water bottle, cut off the top to facilitate ventilation, and poke a few holes in the bottom of the bottle to facilitate water leakage.

3. After soaking the mung beans in water for a day, the mung beans become bigger. Put the beans in a bottle, rinse them with water several times a day, put the bottle under the faucet and rinse them directly.

4. To prevent the bean sprouts from changing color when exposed to light, cover the bottle with a black bag. It can also be placed in a light-proof carton.

5. After about a week, the mung bean sprouts will be grown. Although they are not thick, they are definitely green and pollution-free. After removing the whiskers, there is a full pot left, enough to stir-fry a dish.
