Vicki at Gypsy Clipper's been learnin' Vanholio on vanlife sproutin'. Sprouted beans, grains, nuts, and veggies is easier ta digest, less farty, and more vitamin packed than dry. Real easy ta do, and cooks quicker, too!
This ain't just for hippie-dippies. Read what WebMD says about it!
How to Sprout in the Van – Super Easy!
Followin' Vicki's advice, here's what I did:
- Got regular ol' bought-at-Walmart dried pinto beans.
- Soaked 'em about 5 hours (4-6 recommended).
- Drained 'em.
- Tied 'em up in a t-shirt.*
- Hung the t-shirt in a dark place in the van.
- Got 'em out about 20 hours later.
- Cooked as normal.
No big fuckin' deal! Tasted fine, too.
* BTW, it's that hangin' 'em in up in a cloth that makes it easy. Most sproutin' guides advise this setup with jars. Bad news for a van – takes up room, fussy, and fragile. Usin' a t-shirt, hitchhiker towel, bandanna, or whatever is so much fuckin' easier!
