Edible parts

Germs or young shoots depending on the use of the variety
Recipe idea using your organic red lentil microgreens. Add the microgreens to a bowl of rice and cooked vegetables. Cook the rice, then sauté carrots and mushrooms in a pan. Distribute them into bowls with a pre-cooked protein source, such as lentils or tofu. Gently rinse the harvested microgreens and drain them. Add them to the pan at the end of cooking to warm them through before placing them on the bowl. Mix lemon juice with a little soy sauce and a spoonful of oil, then drizzle this dressing over the dish. Finish with some toasted sesame seeds. Use the harvested microgreens, never the seeds sold for planting. For lots intended for edible sprouting, use only seeds specifically meant for this purpose. Flavor varies by species: a radish sprout should be added in a smaller quantity than a sweet pea sprout.
