Drain the seeds as thoroughly as possible after every rinse, propping the jar upside down at an angle — any pooled water left sitting encourages mold instead of clean, crisp sprouts.
Instructions:
- Sanitize: Pour hot water into a mason jar, let sit for 1–2 minutes, then drain and cool.
- Soak (Day 1): Add 2 tbsp radish sprouting seeds to the jar. Cover with filtered water and close the sprouting lid. Soak for 5 hours. Drain, rinse, and prop the jar upside down at an angle to drain fully.
- Rinse and Drain (Days 2–4+): Twice daily: fill jar with filtered water, swirl gently, drain through mesh lid, and re-prop upside down at an angle. Keep on a countertop away from direct sunlight.
- Harvest: By day 4 (up to day 6), sprouts should be vibrant and fill the jar. Transfer to a container lined with paper towel and refrigerate. Consume within 5 days.
Notes: Radish sprouts are significantly spicier than alfalfa or broccoli sprouts. The heat intensifies the longer they grow. Harvest at 4 days for milder flavor, 6–7 days for a stronger kick.
Rinse and drain thoroughly twice a day — standing water causes mold and off-flavors.
Tips: In the final 12 hours, place the jar in indirect sunlight to green up the leaves and activate chlorophyll.
Storage: Refrigerate in a sealed container lined with a paper towel for up to 5 days. Rinse before eating.
Swaps: Radish sprouting seeds can be mixed with alfalfa or broccoli seeds for a milder mixed sprout blend.
Just a couple of ingredients are needed here. Radish sprout seeds germinate quickly and deliver a spicy, peppery bite similar to the mature vegetable, while a mason jar with a sprouting lid provides the airflow and drainage needed to grow them evenly at home.
