    Default Quick question about sprouted quinoa

    I just sprouted my first batch per sproutpeople.com's instructions- they turned out great. However, I'd like to know if you are supposed to rinse them each time you eat some?

    Also, is it okay to eat seeds that are not sprouted? I'd say 20% of the batch didn't sprout. Fine to eat?

    hootiehoo - i don't rinse them each time i eat them - and the grains will continue to sprout so the little guys that haven't burst out yet may do so in a day or so.

    hope that helps, alicia

    I sprouted some for the first time the other day and some of them grew pink tails...is this normal or were they bad??
    I only ate a bit...I don't like sprouts in general and was particularly freaked out by these.
