Origins and Names: The Story of Mung Beans
Hailing from India, where they are considered one of the oldest cultivated plants, mung beans have a rich history. Today, there are over 200 varieties, each offering unique qualities. Known globally as "green seeds," these beans are sometimes mistakenly identified as soybean sprouts due to their resemblance. It's essential to know that mung beans and soybeans are distinct, each bringing its unique properties to the table. Dive into the history of these "Jerusalem beans" or "Lunjabohnen" and enrich your knowledge about these green gems.
Sprouting Mung Beans: A Simple and Rewarding Process
Sprouting mung beans is a straightforward process that yields plentiful results. Begin by soaking the beans in water overnight, using five to seven times the amount of water. This step is crucial for successful sprouting. After soaking, rinse and water the sprouts two to three times daily, ensuring they are kept at room temperature. From just one cup of seeds, expect about seven cups of sprouts! Harvest them on the third day for the best quality and flavor before they turn pale purple and become more intense in taste.
Cooking and Using Mung Beans and Sprouts
To fully enjoy mung beans, it's vital to cook them properly. Start by soaking the beans overnight or for at least four hours. Cooking is effortless: boil water, add the beans, and simmer for about 30 minutes. Now, they're ready to be a star in your favorite dishes. From traditional Indian dals, replacing lentils with mung beans, to being a unique addition in salads, these beans adapt to various cuisines. Not to forget, mung bean sprouts are a fantastic inclusion in Asian dishes, offering both aesthetic appeal and culinary delight.
