Bean Sprouts/Mung Beans

[Guest guest]

I have made a number of attempts at growing these sprouts in the way that I

have been told. That is to place some beans in a large jar, cover with warm

water for a few hours and then drain. Then rinse in cold water and leave in

jar. Daily rinse and drain in cold water. Beans start sprouting but they have

enourmous long roots on them. Not very pleasant at all. I have tried leaving

them for shorter times and having shorter sprouts but the roots are still very

long. It quite puts me off using the sprouts. As the sprouta are all tangles

together it is not an option to try to cut off all the roots.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?
