Leafy Clover Red

Clover seeds are edible, however they can be hard to digest, so it’s best to sprout them. Any part of the clover plant is edible, and many people enjoy chewing red clover blossoms. Note that rabbits enjoy clovers particularly, and these greens are popular fodder.

The best way to enjoy numerous health benefits of organic clover seeds is to sprout them to get a bunch of delicious microgreens. In this form, they are a good source of vitamin C, folate, iron, and calcium, and contain varying amounts of most other essential nutrients.

• Add 3-4Tbsp of your dry seeds to a clean sprouting jar; enough to lightly cover the bottom of an upright jar.
• Cover the sprouting jar with the mesh screen & secure it with a rubber band.
• Cover your dry seeds with 2-4cm water & soak for 6-8 hours or overnight.
• Drain & rinse in fresh water, swirling gently while draining to disperse the seeds across the surface of the sprouting jar. Place the jar at an angle on your sprouting stand.
• Keep your sprouting jar in natural light but never in direct sunlight. Rinse your seeds 2-3 times a day in cool water. The water should be rinsed clear.
• Harvest within 2-3 days of the “tails” and/or greenery appearing from the seeds.
• Drain the sprouts well & leave 2-4 hours to dry on your sprouting stand, before transferring to an airtight, covered storage container.
• Enjoy your sprouts in 3-7 days; keep them refrigerated in an airtight container. Start sprouting new seeds every 2- 3 days for a continuous, fresh supply.
