Broccoli Seeds (Sprout)

BROCCOLI Green Sprouting Seeds - Selection from 100g to 2kg 

Though not bitter these sprouts do possess "a little zing" that adds flavor to salads. Broccoli sprouts take approximately 3 to 4 days to sprout in a jar or around 7-10 days when grown as a microgreen.

 How to grow Broccoli Sprouts in jar 

• Place the seeds in the jar, cover the top with cheesecloth, and secure it with a rubber band. Fill the jar with enough cool water to cover the seeds, drain, and repeat a couple more times to thoroughly rinse the seeds. Refill the jar halfway with cool water, then let soak overnight (8 to 12 hours) at room temperature in a dark cabinet. 

• Drain the seeds and thoroughly rinse them, then drain them once more. Place the jar upside-down at an angle in the bowl to allow drainage and air circulation through the cheesecloth. Move the jar and bowl to a dark cabinet. Rinse and drain the seeds 2-3 times a day, making sure they never completely dry out. They will begin to sprout (sometimes as early as day 1-2) and should be ready to harvest in 3-7 days. 

• Once the sprouts have leaves that begin to uncurl, place the jar in a sunny spot for 1-2 days so that the leaves turn green. 

• Transfer the sprouts to a colander or salad spinner and thoroughly rinse them to remove any shells and seeds that didn't sprout. Drain and pat them dry (or let them air dry on your counter), then store them in a covered container in the fridge. Use the raw sprouts within 5-7 days on salads, sandwiches, as a topping on soup or pizza - the possibilities are endless.
