This wonderful sprout recipe was created by a favorite farmers market customer of ours.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 Tbs. cooking oil
- 1 Tbs. mustard seed
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 tsp. ginger - minced or 1/4 tsp. powdered

- 2 cups bean sprouts - like Mung Bean, Beanie's Awesome, Christmas Present, Clem's Choice, PeaBanzo, Pea Carnival, San Francisco Mix, Spring Garden
- 1/4 cup prepared mustard

DIRECTIONS
- Heat wok or pan for 1 minute on high. Add the oil and heat until smoking.

Notes:
