2261.2 | more on sprouts... | ISLNDS::COLELLA | Does Uranus have an aurora? | Fri Feb 16 1990 15:46 | 5 |
| Any health food store will have the seeds. I like the radish sprouts.
They have a nice zing to them.

| Here's a recipe that I have used. It's off the label of a can of
beansprouts, but I can't imagine that you couldn't use fresh sprouts.
*Note: amounts are British standard - so you might need to convert.
Generally, I think the British TSP and TBSP is larger than the
American.
Bean Sprouts: (serves 2-3)
6 oz. bean sprouts
2-3 spring onions
1 clove crushed garlic
1 TBSP vegetable oil
4 TBSP chicken stock
1 TSP cornflour (US = Cornstarch)
Pinch salt and sugar.
Rinse/drain beansprouts. Cut onions into a 1 1/2" lengths. Combine
cornflour, salt and sugar with stock in a bowl. Heat oil in wok or
frying pan - when hot, fry garlic until golden. Discard garlic. Add
beansprouts to hot oil and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add onions and stir
to mix. Add seasoned chicken stock and bring to a boil. Serve on heated
dish.

Question:
I bought twp pkg's of Mung beansprouts. Within two days
they had turned brown. Are they still usable? I kept them
in a zip lock bag in the crisper in the fridge. Thanks in
advance........

| I don't think they will kill you but I wouldn't want to eat them.
You really can't keep them very long but two days is a little soon to
have them spoil.

No, they don't last very long. I find that either leaving them uncovered
or putting them in a paper bag helps. Make sure they're dry too.

2261.7 | To keep them beansprouts fresh! | PRSIS4::CHEW | | Thu Oct 04 1990 10:01 | 7 |
| You'll probably find that if you put them in a bowl of cold water and
put it in the fridge, they will keep for a couple of days. Remember to
change the water daily (as it might turn yucky otherwise).
(This is what my Mum does and it seems to do the trick)
