Edible parts

Sprouts and microgreens intended for this use; cook sprouts thoroughly
Organic lentil sprouts. For 2 servings, use 100g (3.5oz) of sprouts and 500ml (2 cups) of pre-made vegetable soup. Add well-cooked sprouts to the vegetable soup. Use only sprouts grown from seeds intended for food germination and discard any cultures with an abnormal odor or mold. Prepare a broth with vegetables of your choice, then bring it to a boil. Add the sprouts and continue cooking until they are thoroughly cooked; a simple rinse or decorative addition at serving time does not replace this step. Stir to distribute the heat and check the texture before serving. Season according to the other ingredients in the meal. For mixes, refer to the package composition to account for allergens, especially sesame or mustard if present. Refrigerate leftovers promptly. This recipe does not make deteriorated cultures usable and does not guarantee the safety of raw sprouts. Keep equipment that has touched raw sprouts separate from clean utensils used to serve the soup.
