how to sprout???

ieva

i really feel for some raw hummus…i have here a bag of dried chickpeas – from regular food store, so i was wondering how to sprout them. i put them to soak in the water but the thing is some of them kind of fell apart in half… well, will they sprout anyway?

thanks TomsMom! i soaked mine already for 12 hours, just rinsed them- most of them are ok- i guess thats good. some of them fell apart in halves and smaller pieces. should i take the broken pieces out or just leave them. when i sprout them won’t the bad pieces spoil and contaminate the good ones? actually, what about spoild chickpies? how do i know that i am sprouting them instead of just spoiling them :) will all chickpeas sprout or some of them i will have to discard?

Try zucchini hummus too, no sprouting chickpeas it’s fantastic! Here’s Kandace’s recipe ( I halve this recipe and use less tahini) http://goneraw.com/recipes/9-Hummus
