I recommend a salad spinner with fine holes! It's such a great tool to help clean your sprouts while also separating the bad seeds/husks, and then also drying your spouts in a matter of seconds.
Can you recommend what brand of salad spinner with fine holes works best for you please?
What do you do when you’re stressed out because the world has gone mad? Learn how to sprout broccoli seeds of course. Well done video. Thank you.
No kidding.......I knew there was a reason I suddenly decided to grow sprouts. Picked up my seeds and jar today!
Don't forget to: turn off social media ALL OF THEM !!!except RUclips!!!
Forget about the news, tv, papers, magazines, and the alerts you get on your phone
Find a podcast or audible book while doing choirs or when you crave the news
Grab a great book to keep you company while your friends post selfies or dance moves or how great their relationships are (all bs anyways)
There! And just like that, life is beautiful again ❤
I also got into plants, drawing, embroidering, organizing, exercising, cooking and freezing nice meals so I don't have to resort to eat junk food when the craving strikes 😜
Even as a Canadian, I'm like "whoa, that is a Canadian accent."
Hahahahaha I thought the same
Yuh
Uts sat aboot
it's that atlantic canada touch don't cha know
Word same here! Check that accent ehwt.
Nice video, just want to add a few tips.....putting sprouts in the freezer doubles the sulforaphane content and should be eaten in a week or so. soaking the sprouts in 150 degree water for approx 10 minutes ( not boiling ) before eating greatly increases the sulforaphane and having some brown mustard powder with your sprouts also increases its absorption......just some things I learned and heard from other growers...
So which is it>? all three? or one of these options? Just freeze? Or 150 degree water? How do you maintain that temp> like easiest way? And why do you have to eat them in a week? That means you have to constantly be making them , instead of making many and freezing them, as Dr Rhonda Patrick recommends eating 2-4 ounces of it a day. How can you finish that many in 1 week. Yall make it so confusing!
You are right. The answer is around minute 3 and 8 in this video Top Plant-Based Nutrition Hacks With Dr. Michael Greger, MD
ruclips.net/video/9gCxCVGB96w/видео.html
Can you source this business of freezing increasing sulf content? That’s a big claim.
And the boiling? Source? You want to boil actual broccoli to release nutrients but I believe boiling delicate sprouts will destroy any & all nutrients - big time. We know already that boiling the hell out of most vegetables renders their nutrients uselesss. Unless you can source that…..
@@rockforester7908 everyone knows about freezing and the great effects. Search up dr Ronda Patrick here on RUclips she has a very detailed video on the freezing from one of her colleagues breaking it down to the science.
"If you got a problem with broccoli sprouts, you got a problem with me and I suggest you let that one marinate."
Salad spinner husk removal much easier....or....use a net bag that onions come in, one with tiny holes and stand outside and spin it really fast....Kids love this, but I use an almond milk bag over the net bag so I don’t have seed husks all over me and my deck...
Love that Canadian accent!
Why would you want to remove the husks? They probably contain vitamins/nutrients and at least fiber..?
What a GREAT IDEA !!!!!
@@cyberfunk3793 For the picky eaters in my house…Lol…😁
Salad spinner sounds like a nice 2-for-1 idea to separate and dry.
Very helpful. Showing what to do after they’ve sprouted was what I needed to know. Thanks!
Great video. I've been watching a lot of sprouting videos today and this is definitely the best!
I bought all of the stuff you recommended, and four days ago I began the journey. It was very easy to do, but I couldn't wait for the final result, and today, the Big Day finally came. After I thoroughly rinsed the sprouts, I gave them a dunk in a large mixing bowl of water to remove all the husks. After draining them in a colander, I took my very first, tenative taste. They had a mildly "peppery" flavor to them, but SO MUCH more flavorful and delicious than my usual alfalfa sprouts that I had usually bought at the grocery store. I put a little of my Roasted Sesame Seed dressing over them, then I literally DEVOURED all of them in only seconds. I only wish I'd made more!! Thanks for the great tips, and I plan to enjoy these sprouts as a valuable addition to my diet for a long, long time:)
P.S. I just noticed that I was using the usual 1-quart sized Mason jars, but you were using the half-gallon sized ones, another great idea! The 32-ounce jars just didn't make enough spouts for me, so I just ordered the 64-ounce ones online, and can't wait to get them.
Roasted Sesame Seed dressing? Homemade?
@@mgiglio25
I found this woman's recipe on You Tube. You can also buy it pre-made on Amazon. I did the latter to save time, then added a bit more soy sauce and rice vinegar to "bump it up" a little for my taste. Try it, you'll like it:)
@@mgiglio25
I actually forgot to give you the actual name of it. It's called, "Kewpie Creamy Deep Roasted Sesame Seed Dressing." Sorry for the delay...
@@tiffsaverCostco sells this dressing
@@kellyb8237
Bought it. Pretty good stuff. I made it even better by adding a splash of soy sauce, my "secret weapon."
Really great video! Here's my experience so far. I'm on my 3rd batch of different types (bought a huge variety pack of organic seeds to start) and just discovered that 3 Tbsp of seeds is the right amount as he said. Amz also has the jars that have the metal strainer in the plastic lid with legs and a draining tray for each with a dark sleeve that I cover the jars with for the 1st few days. The last day, I bring them out into indirect light and green up the little leaves. I 1st soak the seeds and the final sprouts in lightly acidulated (pop of lemon juice, vinegar or I use food-grade citric acid) water to keep them clean and bacteria-free. As I'm using organic seeds, I don't use chemicals to clean the jars and strainers. Hot water and a good organic soap work well with an air-dry. Lastly, I only use filtered water to rinse the seeds and sprouts. So far, I'm thrilled with the results of my sprout-making endeavors.
Does that vinegar /lemon mixture destroy any of the beneficial nutrients? I am reading comments due to concerns over bacteria - how can one be sure to avoid this always.
So sink water isn't good? Cuz of the chlorine or flouride?
I really appreciate your quick and informative video without all the jibber-jabber. Thank you.
That right there is a real nice sink dude. Great video!
Hey - just to let you know people put sprouts in dark lighting to emulate the environment of soil, which a sprout normally would germinate in. They are sensitive to light and so direct sunlight is a big no no but indirect is just fine. Good video none the less
Excellent! I like how you used a dish towel for drying, rather than a salad spinner. Thank you for this video.
Great video! Just done my first sprouts. Turned out great 👍
Thank you. You really answered a lot of my questions about how to do this.
Have you noticed any hair growth consuming broccoli sprouts?
I read about the Study where Sulforophane increases 3aHSD which degrades DHT. The mice in the study achieved like 60% hair growth.
I love your personality and love the tips! So excited to start sprouting!
Thank you. I am now soaking my seeds!! My first time sprouting. Good video!
I have 2) Easy Sprouters of Broccoli and 2) jars of Alfalfa Sprouts going since Tues. The seeds were old so I am trying to see if they will sprout. I do have some new ones ordered and some small containers I bought from the Amish Store.
Thanks this is the kind of information that i needed. Will start growing them today
Thank you for all the extra details. That really helps
Wow! That was one jar you bagged! I'm going to try this. Thank you!
That’s awesome. Looks so easy!
Thank you so much for explaining about the root hairs !! I wasn’t sure if it was hairs or mold. Nearly threw them out 😅
I love those jars! After trying all sorts of containers, I have also ended up with the 64oz jars.
The lids don't fully drain so I drilled holes along the rim so they fully drain upsidedown and don't pool up around the lip.
Loved your video! Your sprouts are so beautifully green...my next batch.
Thank you, really enjoyed learning the step by step to sprout. I will see how mine get😊🤷♀️.
Love the video! Recently started sprouting in quart jars, but your video has me looking for half gallon size. As for hulls, I just put the sprouts in a large kettle of water, then using my hands, pull them apart and swoosh them up and down. The hulls move to the sides and bottom. Remove the sprouts, empty the kettle and repeat. Works well.
Thanks itzenoutsidejob !!
That was a very interesting video. I tried to grow some hydroponic tomatoes once, didn't have much luck. I'm going to watch more of your videos to see if there are easy ways to do some hydroponics.
Thanks for the video! Can't wait to try it.
Thank you Hermit. Your video is appreciated.
I really liked your video much more that the other one that has over a million views, thank you for this...
Many thanks for the video from Texas!
Great how to video! I have to show this to my daughter
Thanks Rob. I love eating these things!
Great! Thanks just the info I was looking for!
Totally enjoyed your video...Thanks for sharing 👍🏻🙋♀️😊
Your really good at planting
Excellent post, really appreciate it, thanks!
Bravo!!! Well Done.
I have been growing sprouts in soil but will try this easier method now. In the Philippines now as Minnesota was too cold too long for me. Great place to visit or retire to.
Thanks for the detailed instruction.
Thank you! Ordering those lids :)
Hey young dude! Nice demonstration!
Thanks for very informational video!!
thank you for this video, king
Well done . Best wishes from Montpellier…France!
Lovely video.Thank you 🌱☀️
Nice video. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for this video. 🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱❤️🌱
Please do remember that sterilization of your jars and lids is most important in between sprouting sessions. Bleachy water in a mister works well. Leave it to dry for 5+ minutes and then rinse. Then you can fill the jar with your sprouts and water again. I’ve sprouted for two years. I used to have stinky sprouts. The dishwasher doesn’t work. The microwave doesn’t work. Bleachy water does. (Just wear a white t-shirt when harvesting your sprouts and preparing your jars/lids for the next session.). Oh. And “clunk” the base of each jar on a soft towel after draining your sprouts. It will “pop” the detritus out of your lid holes back into the jar. Minimizes clean up of the jar later on and improves the drain time in each rinsing session.
Or just do a simple hot white vinegar water soak. People don't follow the directions for disinfecting with bleach. It's a cap per gallon but ppl think it only works if you can smell the bleach. Not following the directions can do the opposite of disinfect 😭
Would vinegar be good
@@_einodmilvado It can be. It just depends on what flora is growing in your jars along with the sprouts. I grow my sprouts in a kitchen in Lancaster, PA in farm country. With all the fruits and vegetables coming into our kitchen, we have all sorts of flora to deal with. The vinegar does kill some of them. Heat kills some of them. Giving the jars a few days to be dry and unused can help prevent nasty sprouts. But if I want to guarantee good sprouts in all my jars every time? I have to use a bleach solution. (I try to recycle my bleach and spray it later on the house mold that grows on the North side of my house in the Fall-Spring, but that's another story.). Try the vinegar. Try hot water. Try the resting method. Maybe those singularly or in combo will work for you. If not, then perhaps bleach is necessary for you as well?
Do you know if it is safe to just eat the black broccoli husks (since it's so hard to remove all of them)? Is husk/hull the same as a seed? I'm seeing conflicting results from Google about this (e.g. hulls are okay but erucic acid and seeds are bad)?
Putting the clean and dry jars in a cold oven, and then heat it up for 15 min at 150° C also works very well to sterilize them.
Loved your video, thanks
Thank you. This is great.
Thank you VERY much, sir, for this tutorial. I am going to sprout soon for the very first time. I think you gave very good/concise directions. I didn’t know that you can freeze them. How long can you store them in the freezer? Thank you!!!
You have done a fine job! You may want to use a salad spinner to save time removing the seed husks. I'm always looking for tips on how to improve my sprouting skills. Thanks for sharing!
Great video!
Great video, thanks! x
Great video. thank you
Thanks For Sharing This God Bless 🙏🏼
Thank you very much. Really appreciated. 😊
Thank You!
Use a small mesh strainer to scoop up the hulls! 👍
Awesome; thank you!! 🌱🕊👋
Thanks for sharing.
Nice simple demo. love it! What is your germination rate? Mine has been around 70% I have heard recommendations of soaking only 2 hours...maybe I will try longer. Thanks.
Thanks so much! On behalf of all the seniors in our elder housing! We are interested! (Loving salad stuff). Looking for Mason jars at the local dollar store but really love your big size. Guess we could get the kit online also. Cheers!😄
P.S. sprouts in the dark = Dracula Sprouts.
Great info/ video AA
Thanks !
Great Job! :)
Thanks for the information and process. What does it look like if they went bad-so not to eat?
I can understand the accent placement in Letterkenny now lmao... thanks for sharing this video, I wanted to learn lol
Thanks for mentioning the tiny hairs!! Thought I did something wrong 😂
Best video I've seen on the subject. Also, that was some blissful guitar music near the end (7:57)! Who is it by/where can I find this piece of music? 😊 thanks!
your canadian accent is legendary
By the way, I'm proudly Canadian as well and detect no accent. I don't get what people are hearing. Great video!
The only hint that I got that the accent was Canadian was the way the word "sprout" was pronounced.
You got my attention at Vegan Friendly
i use a smaller bowl and do it in loads that way its easier to spoon the husks.
Thanks. For how long do they stay good in the freezer? Thanks
I like to dry my sprouts in a salad spinner. They last longer in the fridge when they’re dry.
Have you ever tried spraying the hulls off with the sink sprayer when they're on that mesh?
Seems like the hills would pass through and the broccoli sprouts wouldnt.
I'm doing my first grow now!
Also what about removing hulls during the rinsing?
It seems it's made the whole mass more dense.
And that's not good because of moisture content and old right?
It's my first sprout grow, but I used to grow mushrooms.
Thanks for the great video!
And love you got the name, Hermet!
Rock on bro!
Great video, thanks! How do you clean / disinfect the seeds to avoid bacterial infections?
Add 2 tbsp. Apple Cider vinegar to 1 cup water to your seeds. Let sit for 15 minutes. Then drain several times until vinegar is gone.
@@JJMCQ88 I prefer a couple of drops of Nutribiotic Grapefruit Seed Extract to 1 cup water and let sit for 15 minutes and rinse. Two drops of GSE on your toothbrush before toothpaste heals gums and removes pockets over time.
Dr Gregor has a video that discusses the fact that frozen broccoli loses all sulforaphane. I assume sprouts frozen would do the same. Might want to check that out. Thanks for your instructional video I've got my seeds and everything I need.
Interestingly, freezing possibly increases sulphurophane in sprouts. But only if you use them while still frozen instead of defrosting them
How long do you keep them in the refrigerator?
Great video. Did I miss where you say how many times to rinse them per day during the next 5-6 days after the initial 4 hrs of soaking them? And do I leave them on an angle the next 5-6 days while they sprout? Or after yhe 1st 4 hrs of soaking them is that the only time i need to soak and rinse them?
Thankyou!
Hello, I like your method. Not so complicated for a newbie. I notice that you use tab water. Is your water treated to remove chlorine and other chemicals?
Cool dude
Great
Thanks. I’m struggling with growing and livin at the same time 😂😢🎉
Subbing for the accent…and info 😊
How's that marshydro ts600 working out i just got one the other day ? Dose the marshydro 2x2 tent have zippers tjat have the hole to put a lil lock on them ?
Will colored ball jars effect process? Do jars have to be clear glass?
I love it in salad or just like snack 😂
Hi I live in the Caribbean I got some I hope it works for me.
Keep them in the dark. As they green, SF lessens. Do 5 days in the dark and freeze to heighten SF. 😊
3 tablespoons will give you about a pound of sprouts? Wow, amazing.
Do you know if it is safe to just eat the black broccoli husks (since it's so hard to remove all of them)? Is husk/hull the same as a seed? I'm seeing conflicting results from Google about this (e.g. hulls are okay but erucic acid and seeds are bad)?
The kitchen is so beautiful ! Is this your mom’s house ?
So once they are bagged, into the freezer ?
How long are they good for in the freezer?
Sproats 😂 great video
What do you put in your smoothie, besides the broccoli sprouts?
According to dr. Jed Fahey, Broccoli Rabe which you are using to sprout, have no relation to broccoli. It's more closely related to turnip and have no sulforaphane to speak of.
