Steps for growing bean sprouts:

1. Select beans

Whether you are growing soybean sprouts or mung bean sprouts, the first thing to do is to select beans with plump and robust grains. Throw away any shriveled, bug-eyed beans.

2. Soaking and germination

Put the beans in a container, add a little water to soak them overnight, and take them out the next day for later use.

3. Prepare a plastic bottle

Prepare a large Coke or Sprite bottle, cut the upper part of the bottle crosswise, and poke some small holes in the bottom.

4. Humidify the towel to moisturize

Put the soaked mung beans into the bottle, and then stuff it with a wet towel. Prepare a shallow dish with water and place the plastic bottle in the shallow dish with water.

5. Black plastic bags to block light

In addition to ensuring humidity, the most important thing for sprouting is to block light. Everyone puts plastic bottles in a dark corner of the home. If the light shading at home is really not good, you can also try putting a black plastic bag outside the plastic bottle.

6. Mung bean sprouts will sprout in about 5 days

The temperature is high in summer and bean sprouts sprout very quickly. Generally, it only takes 5-7 days for mung bean sprouts to grow longer.

7. After the bean sprouts have sprouted, you can cut the bottle directly, take out the mung bean sprouts and eat them directly! The bean sprouts you grow yourself are healthy and delicious, and the stir-fried dishes are super fragrant!

8. In addition to mung bean sprouts, there are several types of bean sprouts, all of which can be grown in plastic bottles.
