Organic Alfalfa
Alfalfa, or lucerne, botanical name Medicago sativa, is among the most used varieties for the production and consumption of sprouts in Europe and North America.
How can I grow it?
Producing organic alfalfa sprouts is quick and easy, even at home.
We recommend soaking the seed for 5-6 hours; this step is essential to allow the seed to germinate as evenly as possible. Next, it's important to rinse and drain your organic alfalfa seeds 2-3 times a day, making sure the water doesn't settle or stagnate. To bring out the sweet, crunchy flavor of organic alfalfa sprouts, it's best to store your tray in a cool, dark place until the day before harvesting. Your organic alfalfa sprouts will be ready to harvest in 5-6 days.
How can I eat it?
You can add organic alfalfa sprouts to your salads, sandwiches, and soups, or enjoy them raw. Organic alfalfa sprouts tend to wilt quickly, so we recommend storing them in the refrigerator and consuming them within a day to fully enjoy their delicate flavor.
Organic alfalfa seeds may contain traces of soy, mustard, wheat, gluten, and grasses.
Store the seeds in a cool, ventilated place, with a temperature between 8° and 20° C, protected from atmospheric agents, changes in humidity and direct sunlight.
