How To Grow Broccoli Sprouts

My most popular youtube video is STILL the one of me showing you how to grow your own broccoli sprouts from like 2-3 years ago. ⁣

🥦Why broccoli sprouts?⁣

1. 3-4 day old broccoli sprouts have up to 100x the amount of sulforaphane as mature broccoli.⁣

2. Sulforaphane is a potent cancer-fighting, detox boosting, and antibacterial compound found in cruciferous vegetables and sprouts.⁣

🚨Benefits of broccoli sprouts:⁣

🔹help protect against cancer⁣

🔹benefit the heart⁣

🔹boost the brain⁣

🔹increase glutathione⁣

🔹support natural detoxification AND estrogen detox!⁣

Instructions For Growing Your Own Sprouts:

Step 1: Add 1/2 a cup of organic broccoli sprout seeds to a mason jar and cover with filtered water. Let sit overnight. ⁣

Step 2: The next morning, drain your seeds and rinse one time with filtered water. Let as much water out as you can through the sprouting top, then let them drain in a bowl like this. You will rinse and drain morning and night for 4-ish days. 

Step 3: Continue rinsing and draining morning and night and a couple days in your sprouts start to look like this! 

Step 4: Continue to rinse and drain morning and night for 4-ish days or whenever your heart desires. You need a minimum of 3-4 days to get all the sulforaphane benefits, but that’s it!

Step 5: You want to do one final rinse and drain on your sprouts then I like to lay them out on a paper towel or cloth towel on a cookie sheet to dry for a couple hours. You can also throw them in a salad spinner to get some of the seeds out if you want, but not 100% necessary. 

Step 6: Once your sprouts are pretty dry, store them in a mason jar in the fridge for up to a couple weeks or throw them in the freezer.

Now enjoy them on any food you like!
