Edible parts

Germs or sprouts depending on the use of the variety
Recipe idea for your organic chickpea microgreens. Add the young shoots 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 shoots and drain them. Add them to the pan at the end of cooking to heat 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 harvested young shoots, never seeds sold for planting. For batches intended for food germination, use only seeds specifically designed for this purpose. The flavor varies depending on the species: a radish sprout should be added in a more modest quantity than a sweet pea sprout.
