Kohlrabi Sprouts – Mild, Slightly Spicy Brassica Sprouts for Home Growing
Kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes) sprouts carry the characteristic subtle spiciness of the cabbage family, yet are far more delicate and enjoyable than the mature vegetable. The 200 g pack provides months of regular sprouting — delivering fresh, vitamin-packed shoots in just a few days each time.
Nutritional Benefits
Kohlrabi sprouts are rich in glucosinolates — natural sulfur compounds that convert in the body into isothiocyanates with antioxidant and cell-protective properties. They also supply vitamin C, B6, potassium, and folate, collectively supporting immune, nervous system, and cardiovascular health.
- Rich in glucosinolates (cell-protective)
- Excellent source of vitamin C and B6
- Good potassium and folate content
- Low calorie, high nutrient density
How to Sprout
Soak seeds for 6–8 hours, then place in a sprouting jar or tray. Rinse twice daily with cool water and keep at room temperature in a bright spot out of direct sunlight. Crisp green kohlrabi sprouts are ready to harvest in 4–6 days.
Usage Ideas
Best enjoyed fresh in salads, sandwiches, and tacos. Their mild spiciness creates a pleasant contrast with creamy or rich toppings — try them with avocado, fresh cheese, or seasonal vegetables.
