Quick and nutritious: Millet sprouting seeds are an excellent addition to your diet, providing a mild, slightly nutty flavor and a crunchy texture. Packed with essential nutrients like magnesium, fiber, and protein, these sprouts are perfect for boosting the nutritional profile of your meals. They grow quickly, making them an ideal option for sprouting beginners who want fast results. These sprouts are perfect for salads, sandwiches, and bowls, offering both flavor and nutrition.

How to Grow: To sprout millet seeds, start by soaking them in water for 6–8 hours or overnight. After soaking, drain and rinse the seeds thoroughly. Then, place the seeds in a sprouting jar or tray and keep them in a warm location with temperatures between 65°F and 75°F. Rinse the seeds 2–3 times a day to ensure they stay hydrated and free from mold. In about 3–5 days, the seeds will sprout and be ready for harvesting.

Harvesting: Millet sprouts are ready to harvest when they have sprouted 1–2 inches in length, typically within 3–5 days. The shoots should be fresh, tender, and green. Rinse them thoroughly with cool water to remove any remaining seed hulls. These sprouts are excellent in salads, added to sandwiches, or tossed into stir-fries for a nutritious crunch. They can also be eaten on their own as a healthy snack.
