Preparation

Step 1

Rinse a cloth in lukewarm water and squeeze it out. Lay out one of the towels on a small tray. Scatter the lentils ( ¼ pound of lentils will increase in weight slightly) over the dampened cloth without crowding.

Cover with another dampened cloth and place in a cool, dark place (do not refrigerate). Sprinkle lightly with water enough to keep the towel moist without letting any water accumulate in the bottom of the tray.

Sprinkle twice a day, morning and evening. At the end of 3 days the lentils should be sprouted. This will produce slightly more than 1 cup.
