Mung bean sprouts contain various vitamins, in addition to an assortment of minerals including calcium, iron, and potassium. They are free of cholesterol, and are ideal for anyone counting calories. Bean sprouts are gaining popularity as a health food, appearing in a wide variety of dishes from salads to soups, wraps or just as a healthy snack. Making sprouts at home is easier than you think and they are generally fresher and better than any store bought one. Please head over to Norma's Garden to Wok for the detailed instructions on growing sprouts at home.

ReplyDeleteI am not familiar with parsley root. Is it anything like celeriac? I'll only see a reply here: scrout1944@msn.com
ReplyDelete@StephenC
ReplyDeleteParsley root is light beige, shaped like a carrot. Farmers here even call them white carrot. It's different from celery root, but very much like a parsnip.

ReplyDeleteThough CNY is over, looking at this actually reminded me of Yu Sheng, this a meatless one though. Looks so fresh and healthy!
ReplyDeleteI'm down at the bottom of the list...last, but not 'least' commenter...just catching up, or trying to!
ReplyDeleteIf this super healthy salad does not cure any illness, or beat anything that 'ails' you...then I don't know what will! I always buy parsley root for my soups, and mix it in my mashed potatoes (cook with the potatoes)...everything is so wonderfully combined, and artistically designed:) Superb!
