Sprouted Bean Rice Pot

One of the simplest recipes in the world.
It has become a much desired staple for us - as a simple peasant dish or as a side course.
Gomashio (a staple of Japanese cuisine) will become a necessary condiment.

Sprouts to Use
Peasant Mix
Any and All Lentils
Mung Bean
Mix #47
Halloween Treat

Any Bean Sprout - though Lentils are our favorite for this.

Ingredients

1 cup of Sprouts
Pot of Rice

Preparation

Throw a big handful of desired Sprouts into your rice pot for the last 2-5 minutes of cooking.

While the rice is cooking make the Gomashio.


Gomashio
1/4 cup raw sesame seeds (not hulled)
+ 1/2 Tbs. (sea) salt

Heat skillet (cast iron is best) over high heat for 1-2 minutes. Add the sesame seeds and stir continuously until they pop and turn golden brown - 1 - 2 minutes. Remove the sesame seeds and grind with salt - a mortar and pestle works quite nicely.

If you can't grind it into a paste you may use it just mixed up.

Serve

Transfer the Sprouts & Rice to bowls and sprinkle generously with Gomashio.

Notes

Cook the sprouts less for higher nutrition.
A complete protein.

The very best way to contact us is through E-mail =:-)

We have been an internet only business since 2001. We are not a big corporation. We are but 2 people, mom n' pop. We decided after years of juggling our family's (kids, dogs, cats and even our own) needs, and the needs of Sproutpeople, that we had to make more time for our kids, so we stopped talking on the phone. All calls go to voice mail and have since 2001.

We are very fast to fill orders and answer e-mail, and though we wish we could make the time to talk, we just can't seem to get more minutes into a each hour. We are many years older than when we started and our days are too short and made up of too few hours to do everything. This limitation in our business has not kept us from pleasing our customers, nor from growing (as we have every year since 1993). We do what we do as well as we can, and we think we do it very well indeed.

We appreciate your business more than we can say. We ask that you use the phone for emergencies only and that you search our site for answers before e-mailing us. This site is bigger than any 4 sprout books put together, it is always available and it is free, and we know that almost all questions are answered here.

Thanks again for your patronage and your many kind words.
