Very necessary information. Sprouted grains are incredibly good for health. Previously, I sprouted millet and oat grains for my parrot, but I didn’t eat them myself, and to be honest, I didn’t even know how to germinate lentils directly. I would also like to know from you salad recipes to which you can add these grains. Thanks in advance).

Thank you, Marianna, for your nice review! And you can find salad recipes on our website and in my culinary folder “Sprouted Grains and Seeds”, there is only one salad there so far, but we will all try to increase them and I will place them in this folder as they become available. And of course, we will continue to germinate the remaining grains and seeds, and for everyone who is interested, check us out more often, thank you for your interest!

Sprouted grains are the main basis of most “proper”, “healthy” nutrition systems. They are useful for strengthening the immune system, as well as for preventing vitamin deficiency in the winter and spring. When germinated in grains, enzymes such as enzymes are activated, which break down the nutrients in the grains and form new compounds that are well absorbed by the human body (amino acids, simple sugars, fatty acids). The sprouts should not be longer than 1-2 mm, since they contain the most useful compounds.

Thank you Shura for the recipe. I myself have been germinating various seeds for food for a long time. But I think many will find it interesting and useful.
