Sprouting seeds is extremely straightforward, and something anyone can do at home. You don't even need a sunny windowsill, far less a vegetable patch. No specialist equipment is required, and although the process itself takes a little time, care, and attention, you can have an edible harvest within just a few days.
What's more, sprouts offer an excellent combination of health and taste, packing all the nutrition and flavour of a mature plant into a versatile, crunchy vegetable that you can use in salads, stir fries, soups, and more.
