What is a "sprout"?
A sprout is a young shoot or newly grown part of a plant that is harvested and eaten while still small and tender. Sprouts can come from various seeds, grains, legumes, or vegetables and are typically consumed raw in salads or sandwiches. They are known for their crunchy texture and fresh, slightly nutty flavor. Common types of sprouts include alfalfa sprouts, bean sprouts, broccoli sprouts, and radish sprouts, each offering its own unique taste and nutritional benefits. Sprouts are prized for their high nutrient content, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and enzymes, making them a popular choice for adding freshness and nutrition to meals.
