Sprouting Mung Beans After 48 Hours dailyfoodphotography

in dailyfoodphotography •  7 years ago  (edited)

When we last saw these sprouting mung beans after 24 hours, their little tails were just popping out. Well, after 48 hours, the excitement never ends. Just look at them now!

The volume of food has about doubled, the hulls are pretty much off the sprouts, and the tails are shooting out nicely. This is still not food though. I usually eat a couple of sprouts at this time to test them and the taste is not that great - they are a little bitter and a little hard. Tomorrow will be a better day.

Sprouting mung beans – or any bean – is part of my new healthy diet after losing “Half My Size” a few years ago. All beans give protein and mung beans are supposed to be one of the best of the best in that category.

I also mentioned the anti-inflammatory properties of mung beans in another post of this series and that was the real reason I started. Another benefit is a reduction in indigestion and gas when eating any type of bean. If beans have this effect on you, even a short bit of soaking and sprouting time will improve that problem.

Hi @fitinfun, I had a look at your other posts in the series but I couldn't see the answer. Can you tell me are these just dried mung beans like you get in the supermarket? I am actually eating them in my mixed bean and buckwheat salad for my lunch! Coincidence! I would like to try to sprout them too. I just want to make sure I am using the right bean and I dont have to go to a garden centre or anything like that.

Great series BTW and holy moly well done on the body transformation! You have a new follower!

Sorry, just saw that you have just regular beans from the shop. it was in a reply to another poster in the post from 6 days ago. Thanks for the answer from the past! LOL Keep it up.

No trouble and thank you for the compliments! Try any bean or seed and I know you will have good results. If you like them, you can grown them constantly like me!

Followed back - so good to meet you :)

Cool, I'll be sure to let you know how I get on with them too!

Hi @fitinfun, looks awesome! Thanks for sharing. I'd love to try this, cheers!

If they are placed in soil, they will surely grow.
