Microgreen Magic

Throughout this book I list in the ingredients sprouts and cress – and usually suggest you use whatever you have at hand. When I was doing my apprenticeship, I used to sprout mung beans, fenugreek seeds and mustard cress at home for my salads. These days, however, the variety available through farmers markets, supermarkets, food halls and better vegetable suppliers is extraordinary. Throughout the book you’ll see rocket cress, basil cress, coriander cress and new sprouts such as China Rose, Buck Sorrel, Russian Cress and numerous others.
