Notes
How to sprout mung beans:Wash and soak the mung beans in 3 cups of water overnight. The next morning, drain the beans in a colander and cover the colander with a cloth. Place the colander in a dark spot (maybe inside your oven and microwave) for 24-36 hours. Sprinkle the top of the mung beans with a splash of water every 8 hours or so for faster sprouting. When the sprouts have grown long enough, transfer them into an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator until ready to use.
