Chickpea

$16.00 – $26.00

Chickpea microgreens are typically harvested and eaten when they reach a height of around 4 cm and have a white or light brown colour. They have a pleasant sweet taste similar to a hazelnut. Chickpea microgreens are rich in essential amino acids as well as iron and calcium. They are particularly good for high protein diets because they offer a high nutrient supply.

Remember: Pay careful attention during germination. It should take around 4 to 6 days, after which the seeds tend to become too floury, can break, and mould can take hold of the plants. The microgreens, before being consumed, should be lightly steamed for a couple minutes to avoid damaging the beneficial enzymes and vitamins. This simple technique will help enhance the flavour and ensure easy digestibility.
