Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 EW, I wasn't sprouting beans but am growing beans. These are in a pod but the beans inside are white beans. They sure sprouted fast and came up. I just wondered about the leaves as I could cut a few off them and wouldn't likely hurt them. But I'm not ready to cook them at all. They were in a package so not sure they are without any germination chemicals. I still have some left so I'll check to see if it is organic. I tried to get organic. Carolyn Wilkerson  To: sproutpeople Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 8:05 PM Subject: Re: Re: Chips?  What kind of a bean. If you're sprouting dry beans, such as: kidney, pinto, white, these need to be cooked. I sprout them for four days and then they go into soups, stews and chili. Mung beans and azuki can be eaten without cooking after they are sprouted. ew Re: Re: Chips? Are you just eating the leaves of the peas? Wonder if the leaves of a bean re any good. I put out some beans, can't remember if they are organic, but they are really growing in the container box. Last time I ate a bean sprout, it was bitter. Don't know if it was too big or not.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 No, I haven't. I did the beans and they were bitter. I haven't yet done my sunnies either as I have a can like you had. I haven't put them in freezer yet. I have to use some things from the freezer first. I have done more planting than sprouting lately. I just got my salad spinner.  Carolyn Wilkerson  To: sproutpeople Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 8:27 PM Subject: Re: Chips?  Carolyn: I eat everything but the pea itself. Some part of the shoots are called Tendrils. You've never done pea shoots?? Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
