Coffeeandshoes 77 Posted May 4, 2014 Yeah bean sprouts! I"m thinking of making a Thai type soup with them, broth, ginger, garlic, peppers, and some chunks of meat and maybe an egg, cliantro and who knows what else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GlennR 875 Posted May 14, 2014 Hi - is it ok to eat the beany bit that they sprouted from or do you need to pick them off? You know, I've been wondering about that, too. Same with the beans inside snow peas and green beans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
