What is the best way to store broccoli sprouts? | Jed Fahey
Video Overview & Insights
When broccoli sprouts are two to three days old, they should be stored in the refrigerator to slow their growth and to prevent the growth of any bacteria that might be on the young plants. Large batches of sprouts can be frozen and stored for up to one month for the best quality. In this clip, Dr. Jed Fahey describes the best way to store broccoli sprouts.

Blabbered about nothing. He didn't say if they need an air tight container or a container with airflow. He didn't say anything about drying the broccoli sprouts well. Worthless rambling, waste of time listening to this video

used 2 tablespoons for of the broccoli sprouts seeds and Iām on day five or six and only handful of sprouts have grown like a small handful of the jar is still empty or filled with brown hulls. Should I keep going past day?

Can you wash them with apple cider vinegar before eating them?
@edaerkol7841What about the bad breath they cause?
@alberthaust4542Super interesting. Love the information and the practical āhow toā
@zuzikahoare7574I heard freezing them increases sulphurophane. True?
@proudgary2228Wtf is this guy saying
@arnauing4I froze my broccoli sprouts in zip lock bags the day of harvest and after 2 weeks they have gone brown, why? Please any advice
@CrazyOldWorldWhat about freezedrying?
If we harvest them, lay them out on pans, put them in the deep freeze, and then move them to the freezedryer for processing. Will the sulforaphane survive and still be effective after rehydration or freeze-dried consumption?
Can they dehydrated?
@daveforgot127This lady is so serious!
@alexciasundrawhat kind of language this dude was speaking? š
@MrLuba6aI buy organic broccoli sprouts from my buddy the Sprout Vendor at the farmers market (he grows in trays with rich soil, just sprays with water till harvest) I get about apx. 1-1/2 lbs for $30. Then at home I take sandwich bags weight about 1.2 ounces then roll the bag tightly, seal, place into a gallon freezer bag, continue till all bagged then put in the freezer. How I consume is in a smoothie so I just grab a bag, open and push frozen sprouts into blender jar and add my other smoothie goodies then blend... that's it !
@busterduster4194So, to refrigerate, heās saying to keep them in water??? Am I an idiot? I canāt tell if thatās what heās saying.
@tnijoo5109What about dehydrating them?
@booswaliaI just was them spin them in the veg dryer which removes some of the water , I then freeze in freezer bags straight away and add to smoothies after a couple of days. Am I getting the sulforaphane still? Thanks
@HealthFitnessNutrition_01Iām unfortunately one of those people who cannot tolerate any sprouts. Iāve gotten bacteria infectionsš«
@kisslenacan you refrigerate the finished sulforaphane for later consumption ?
@ronlacey2591Please mention broccoli microgreens once in a while. They're a week older than sprouts.
@SpearChuck777I wash them, put them in a freezer bag and then I take the bag out the next day, put the bag on the floor and break them up with my garlic masher.
@richbunnell7426What about dehydrating the sprouts in a food dehydrator?
@whirlsnwavesI soak my sprouts in 158 degrees water for ten minutes which is supposed to increase sulforaphane content. I then blend them with a bit of water and freeze them in icecube trays. Do you think that this is a good manner in which to preserve them? Am I losing any nutritional content in this process?
@Tennesse_jedcan you buy frozen broccoli sprouts in a supermarket?
@nickfraser422Thank you Drs. Patrick and Fahey. I followed Patrickās technique in sprouting, and yes I succeeded! I attached a video here https://youtu.be/6ysBhW0m_J0 how me and my kids followed the techniques. Itās so easy and the results are amazing!
@KaonTaAnayThank you š
