The latest thing I have tried sprouting in my sprouting jar is chickpeas, just 'normal' dried ones from Tesco costing around £1 for 500g.
I put them in the jar, I used a third of a cup, and added some water before leaving overnight, they swelled up impressively so that the lar was around three-quarters full. I drained them in the morning and placed the jar on its side at an angle on the stand provided, I rinsed them out twice a day for a further 3 days while keeping them at room temperature. By this time they had developed shoots around half an inch long and I figured they were good to go.
The results were very impressive, tasty with a bit of crunch to them, great as a snack or with a salad. I will be doing this on a regular basis.
