Bean sprouts are the sprouts of the mung bean and thus belong to the sprouting vegetables. The germination process takes place in large cells under controlled conditions. In seven days, the sprout grows from the mung bean under the influence of warmth and high humidity. After germination, the bean sprouts are harvested and immediately cooled to promote shelf life. Bean sprouts are full of plant-based protein, vitamins, and minerals. Traditionally, bean sprouts are used in Asian cuisine, in stir-fry dishes, nasi, or bami. However, bean sprouts can also serve well as a base for healthy low-carb dishes. For this, briefly blanch the bean sprouts and serve in salads, soups, or as a replacement for pasta with a delicious Italian sauce.
