How can we grow soybean sprouts the fastest and best?

Normally when people eat bean sprouts, most of them choose to buy them directly outside, which is indeed more convenient and simpler, but in fact, bean sprouts can also be grown at home. Let’s take a closer look at the methods and techniques of growing bean sprouts.

1. Choose large, plump and round soybeans, find a small basin of suitable size, put the soybeans in the basin, pour in tap water and soak the soybeans. Soak until the soybeans appear to have swelled up (from round to oval), then pour out the water. If the room is warm, this process will take about half a day.

2. Find a piece of clean cloth (gauze or steamer cloth), soak it with water, and cover the risen beans with it. There should be no water in the small basin at this time. Then find a warm place to place it. Do not place in direct sunlight. Waiting for the beans to sprout.

3. Next, when you see that most of the beans have sprouted, carefully select them and throw away the beans that have not sprouted. Then choose the appropriate pot depending on how many bean sprouts you plan to grow. The best way is to find a pot of suitable size with holes at the bottom (ha, the broken pot in life can be put to good use now). Carefully put the sprouted beans in it, being careful not to knock off the newly emerged sprouts. Then find a basin that is slightly larger than the previous one and does not leak. Place a wooden board or two wooden sticks on the intact basin. In short, place the basin with holes on top, making sure the holes are not blocked.

4. Then it’s time to water the plants. When watering for the first time, pour tap water evenly over the beans, trying to make sure every bean is watered (remove the gauze when watering). The water flowed through the gaps in the beans, out of the holes in the basin, and into the basin below. When watering next time, just use the water stored in the pot below. Of course the amount of water will become less and less. When it is not enough, just add tap water. There is no limit to the number of times you water each day. The more times you water, the faster the bean sprouts will grow.

5. When it grows tall enough, you can eat it. When pulling out the bean sprouts, you can prioritize picking them from places where the bean sprouts grow densely, so as to make room for the bean sprouts below. Pinch off the roots of the pulled bean sprouts, pick out the remaining pods, wash the bean sprouts, and then you can cook.

After reading the detailed steps on how to grow soybean sprouts, you will definitely feel that it is not difficult and you can grow the best quality bean sprouts by paying attention to the details. As long as you practice a few times, you can cook the bean sprouts you produce at will. The advantage of growing your own bean sprouts is that you can ensure safety to the greatest extent possible and avoid excessive loss of nutrients.
