In this video, I’ll show you how to sprout broccoli seeds in a Mason jar using just 2 tablespoons of seeds. It’s an easy, affordable, and rewarding way to add a superfood to your diet! Materials Needed: •1 Mason jar (quart size works best) •2 tablespoons of broccoli sprout seeds •Sprouting lid or cheesecloth with a rubber band •Water Instructions: 1. Add Seeds to the Jar • Place 2 tablespoons of broccoli sprout seeds into the Mason jar. 2. Soak the Seeds • Fill the jar with water, covering the seeds completely (about 2-3 inches above the seeds). • Let the seeds soak for 8-12 hours (overnight works well). 3. Drain and Rinse • After soaking, drain the water through the sprouting lid or cheesecloth. • Rinse the seeds by adding fresh water, swirling gently, and draining again. 4. Start Sprouting • Lay the jar at an angle with the lid facing downward to allow airflow and excess water to drain (a dish rack or bowl works well). • Keep the jar in a cool, dark place, like a cabinet or countertop away from direct sunlight. 5. Rinse Twice Daily • Every morning and evening, rinse the seeds with fresh water, swirl, and drain thoroughly. 6. Watch Them Grow • Over 4-5 days, the seeds will sprout and grow into small, green broccoli sprouts. 7. Expose to Indirect Light • On the final day, move the jar to a well-lit spot (not direct sunlight) to help the sprouts turn green and boost their nutrient content. 8. Harvest and Store • Once the sprouts are about 1-2 inches long and fully grown, give them a final rinse and drain thoroughly. • Store the sprouts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Tips: • Avoid overwatering; make sure to drain thoroughly after each rinse. • If you notice a strong odor or discoloration, discard the batch and start fresh.
