Sprouts are rather amazing things - they are a living food that increases in nutritional power even after they're picked and refrigerated, and they are bursting with vitamins, minerals and important enzymes that help with digestion. Mung bean sprouts are crisp, sweet and refreshing - incredibly popular among the sprout-eating population! You can sprinkle them into salads or use them as a garnish, or you can chuck them into stir-fries. You can even add them to the mix when making veggie burgers, stews or bread! Country of Origin - UK Class - Minimum Class 2

Producer

Brett and Kelda Kellett are sprout fanatics, and have been growing these little beauties down in Totnes, Devon, since 1996. They started out growing alfalfa and mung beans in their tiny kitchen, the reason being that they wanted to grow the best food for their two children. Now their kitchen has expanded somewhat, as has their family -they now have seven children!

Storage & prep

These little gems are great for home made burgers, salads, or stir fries. However, they should only be fried for about 30 seconds if you want to maintain their natural crunchiness. Before eating: · Rinse raw bean sprouts thoroughly. · Avoid sprouts that have turned brown or have a strange odour. · Use the bean sprouts by the 'use by' dates. · Keep them refrigerated. People with weakened immune systems, as well as the very old and the very young, should not eat raw sprouts. Stuck for ideas? Click here for Bean sprout recipes
