SPROUTING RAW PEANUTS:
Ingredients:
250 gms raw organic peanuts
Purified water
Equipment:
Wide mouthed glass jar 1 litre capacity
Glass/Stainless Steel drip container
Disinfected cotton cloth and rubber band
Process:
Place the raw peanuts into the glass jar
Pour the water into the glass jar and allow the peanuts to soak overnight to re-dehydrate
Next morning pour out the soaking water from the night before. Wash the peanuts in the glass jar itself, without removing them. Drain the water.
Place the cotton cloth on the mouth of the jar and fasten with the rubber band
Place the jar in the drip container at an incline so that there is no water logging
Place both, the drip tray and the soaking jar under the sun on a window cill or your balcony
During the day, repeat the rinsing process to keep the peanuts hydrated. Do this two-three times based on the weather. More rinsing and draining if the weather is hot. Less is the weather is mild. Ensure that the peanuts are not water logged. They just need to be wet enough for germination.
2-4days is enough to see the germinated peanuts. Use in your recipes as directed.
