Do you have a sprouter at home? Me too !
I love sprouted seeds, because they are excellent for your health.
Plus, they taste great in dishes and salads!
To keep sprouted seeds safe to eat, it is important to clean the sprouter regularly.
Fortunately, there is a simple and effective trick for maintaining and disinfecting a seed germinator.
All you need is baking soda. Watch:
- baking soda
- sponge
- water
1. Sprinkle the sprouter with baking soda inside and out.
2. Dampen the sponge.
3. Rub the inside and outside of the sprouter with the damp sponge.
4. Rinse the sprouter with clear water.
And There you go ! Your seed sprouter is now completely clean and disinfected :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
Bicarbonate disinfects and deodorizes the tray to sprout, and with its grainy side, it loosens the impurities on the walls.
This cleaning works equally well for plastic, terracotta, glass or ceramic sprouters.
It is important to disinfect it regularly so that the sprouted seeds are safe to eat.
Sprouts are a very nutritious food. They are full of micronutrients, antioxidants and vitamins.
The most famous are wheat, spelled, rye, oats, lentils, flax, chickpeas, alfalfa, sesame and fennel.
On the other hand, be aware that tomato, eggplant or rhubarb seeds should be avoided, as they have toxic leaves.
