A Community Recipe by Linda
So, I was experimenting with mung bean sprouting techniques and to my delight, I was successful. Very successful. I had 6 cups of 4” mung bean sprouts and not a clue of what to do with them except, of course, eat them as is. I decided to try a burger recipe, replacing the usual almonds or other nuts, with my mung...

.125 converts to 1/8. .25 would be 1/4.

My pleasure. Here's a convenient US / Metric / UK conversion chart http://whatscookingamerica.net/Q-A/equiv.htm. For decimals just go to Google and type in something like ".125 to fraction" and it will give you the answer. You can also use Google and key in "convert 15 grams" (for example) and it will give you some equivalent options.

I also added a bit of cumin, ground mustard and paprika.

This was the first garden burger I'd ever tried. I was surprised - I really liked it! I'll be making it again soon. Thanks for posting the recipe.

Oops, sorry about blank post. I found the biggest tricks in sprouting mung beans are to keep them in the dark as much as possible or the leaves turn green and they taste bitter. Also, you need to place a lot of weight on top of them. It seems as though you will squish the little beans but the more weight they have to grow against, the thicker their stems will be.
Cheers,
Linda
