Sprouting Seeds - Lentils - Rapid sprouts rich in protein and vitamins

Lentil sprouts are a nutritious, natural way to enrich everyday meals. They are a good source of plant protein, B vitamins, iron, magnesium, and fibre, making them a practical choice for balanced eating. With a mild, slightly nutty flavour, they suit salads, sandwiches, wraps, soups, and warm dishes, adding a fresh, light finish. They are quick and easy to grow at home, and within just a few days you can enjoy a crisp harvest ready to serve.

Sowing time

You can sprout lentil seeds at home all year round, from January to December. Keep them at a steady room temperature and away from draughts, and they will begin to sprout quickly.

Harvest time

Lentil sprouts are usually ready to eat 3-6 days after soaking, depending on the conditions. Because they can be grown at any time of year, you can have fresh, crunchy sprouts whenever you want, with only a few days needed to turn a small handful of seeds into a full jar of sprouts.

Growing tips

Growing lentil sprouts is simple. Rinse the seeds well and soak them in lukewarm boiled water for about 8-10 hours. Then drain, rinse again, and place the seeds in a clean jar covered with gauze or a mesh lid. Keep the jar in a warm, bright place away from direct sunlight. Rinse the sprouts twice a day with clean water and drain thoroughly, as this helps them stay fresh and develop evenly.

You can also use a sprouter to make daily care even easier. Sprouts grow best at around 20-22 C and do not tolerate cold conditions. After a few days, you will see green shoots developing, ready to add to your food.
