Alfalfa sprouts are chock-full of essential vitamins and minerals such as... almost everything.
It can be grown all year round on any (sunny or dull, hot or cold) windowsill.
To grow Alfalfa sprouts for yourself you'll need a large kilner jar and a small piece of fabric that will allow water through it but not the seeds.
Soak the seeds for 8 hours in cold water. The seeds will make the water go yellow, drain this water away and keep rinsing the seeds until the water runs clear. Hold the jar upside down for a moment to drain out all of the water you can. Now you just rinse the seeds once or twice a day and in 7 days the jar will be bursting with finger licking good Alfalfa sprouts.
They seem to keep for weeks in the fridge.
Good on salads, toast, soup or just on their own.
enjoy!
