Key benefits

• Fast results: Within a cultivation period of just about 4 days, you will have fresh, crunchy sprouts.
• 100% Organic: Certified organic mountain lentils of reliable quality for safe cultivation.
• Rich in vital power: The germination process activates the nutrients in the lentil, making them optimally absorbable for your body.
• Simple preparation: Easy to grow in a standard glass jar with minimal effort.

How it works

Mountain lentils undergo a transformation during soaking and rinsing where enzymes are activated and complex nutrients are converted into lighter, easily digestible forms. This natural process ensures that the sprouts become a concentrated source of life force. By giving the sprouts sufficient air and water, they quickly grow into a nutritious addition that helps support your body.

Ingredients

Organic mountain lentils

Usage & Dosage

1. Place one to two tablespoons of seeds in a preserving jar and add plenty of lukewarm/warm water. [Any glass jar is suitable, provided it is large enough (min. 1.5 litres) and the neck is not (too) constricted.]

2. Secure a piece of plastic or fibreglass fly screen over the jar using a sturdy (postman's) elastic band. Preferably do not use aluminium fly screen as this is sometimes treated against insects.

3. Drain the water after the indicated soaking time¹, rinse the seeds, and drain the water again.

4. Place the jar at room temperature, tilted upside down in a colander, rack, or container so that excess water can drain away.

[It is important that all water can drain away; the water that remains on the sprouts is sufficient to keep the germination process going. It is also important that the seeds/sprouts do not cover the entire mesh. For a good result, it is of great importance that there is sufficient air supply. Therefore, distribute the seeds/sprouts along the length of the jar after each rinse.]
Do not place the jar with seeds/sprouts on the heater or in direct sunlight!

5. Rinse the seeds/sprouts approximately 3 times a day during the indicated cultivation period², and always place the jar back tilted upside down afterwards.

6. After the very last rinse*, let the sprouts dry in the jar (tilted upside down) at room temperature for at least 18 hours before consuming them and/or putting them in the fridge.

* If desired, the last rinse can be replaced by a 'washing action' to remove the hulls from the sprouts:
-Fill a small basin or similar to the brim with lukewarm/warm water.
-Place the sprouts in this and 'wash' them loose.
-Skim off the hulls by 'waving' them over the edge of the basin.
-Scoop the sprouts out of the water by hand and put them back in the jar.
-Reattach the mesh, place the jar tilted upside down, and let it dry at room temperature for at least 18 hours.

Store remaining sprouts chilled (max. 7°C) and sealed (not airtight).

¹ Soaking time: ± 10 hours
² Cultivation period: ± 4 days
