Wheatgrass Microgreen Seed
Description & Nutritional Value
Wheatgrass is a kind of grass. The above-ground parts, roots, and rhizome are used to make medicine. Wheatgrass is often used as a source of nutrients. It contains vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, iron, calcium, magnesium, and amino acids. Wheatgrass is served freeze dried or fresh, and so it differs from wheat malt, which is convectively dried. Wheatgrass is packed with a powerful combination of nutrients that make it extremely useful to your health.
How To Grow
Wheatgrass is easy to grow indoors in small trays for use in healthy recipes. Wheat seeds are soaked in clean water for several hours, placed on top of moist potting soil, and kept moist until they germinate. The seeds then grow thin white roots and nutrient-rich edible green shoots. The healthy green blades of wheatgrass can be harvested and used immediately in juicing and smoothies.
How To Serve
Wheatgrass is most commonly consumed as a juice. If you have a juicer, you can pop it right in the juicer. If you don’t, you can easily substitute with a blender and strain the pulp. To add flavor and nutrition to your wheatgrass juice, add citrus or sweet fruits. Wheatgrass juice is good with apple juice, orange juice and even lemon juice. Like any green smoothie, you can add whole wheatgrass, powdered wheatgrass, or wheatgrass juice to your favorite fruits and vegetables.
