Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Hi Sharon, The basic for sprouting beans is soak the beans for 12-48 hours. Change water after 12 hours. You can use a towel or jar method. I sprouted black beans using a towel. I use a glass lasagna dish and a white dish towel. I wet the dish towel and placed it the lasagna dish. Drain the beans and place them in the dish. I rinsed the beans and towel in the morning and evening. Do this for 3-5 days. Put the dish in a unheated oven. They need to have darkness to sprout. Larger beans take longer to sprout. A great website is www.sproutpeople.com Happy Sprouting, Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Deanna - Thanks for the tip. In all these years of sprouting beans, I never thought to put the jar in the oven! I always used a cleared-out cupboard for that purpose. What a great idea! Now, where am I going to hide all my dirty dishes when unexpected company shows up, if the oven is full of sprouting beans?
