Edible parts

Sprouts and microgreens intended for this use; cook sprouts thoroughly
Red cabbage sprouts. For 2 servings, use 100 g (3.5 oz) of sprouts and 500 ml (2 cups) of pre-made vegetable soup. Add well-cooked sprouts to vegetable soup. Use only harvests grown from seeds intended for food sprouting, and discard any crops that have 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 through; a simple rinse or using them as a decorative garnish when serving 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, check the pouch composition to account for allergens, particularly sesame or mustard when present. Refrigerate leftovers promptly. This recipe does not make a spoiled crop safe to eat and does not guarantee the safety of sprouts consumed raw. Keep equipment that has touched raw sprouts separate from the clean utensils used to serve the soup.
