Radish sprouts taste just like radishes. They are great on sandwiches or in salads. Their high concentrations of photochemical help protect against disease. And because of their naturally occurring plant estrogens, similar to human estrogen, they are helpful with PMS, menopause, hot flashes and fibrocystic disease. These baby green vegetables are rich sources of vitamins A, B, C, E and K, the minerals potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium and zinc.
To sprout, use 1 teaspoon seeds per quart jar. Soak in water 4 - 8 hours, then drain. Rinse seeds 2 - 3 times a day until ready to use (about 4 days). Yields 1 cup sprouts.
