Beansprouts?

Postby CornwallPickler on Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:00 am

Has anyone tried fermenting beansprouts?
Did you use a brine or just salt?

I sprout large quantities of beans and seeds and was wondering about fermenting them.

I'm interested in this, too. I've eaten "pickled" veggies at Chinese restaurants that included cabbage, diakon radish, carrots, jalapenos and bean sprouts (probably soy).

I wouldn't want to chop up the sprouts - maybe surround them in shredded and salted cabbage and weigh the mix down.

I've done them with Kimchi (in the loosest sense of the word perhaps- I use whatever is available) and they were okay. They got a little slimy and it wasn't a great texture. About the same as mushrooms in a ferment.
