The result is fresh and crisp with noticeable garlic and onion notes that work particularly well in savoury meals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUse them fresh in sandwiches, wraps, salads, rolls and bowls, or add a small handful as a garnish. Their distinctive flavour also works well with eggs, avocado, cheese, tomatoes and fresh vegetables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Blend of Three Fresh Sprouts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlfalfa, garlic chive and onion chive do not develop at exactly the same rate. Garlic chive in particular grows more slowly than alfalfa, so producing this blend requires careful crop timing rather than simply sowing all three varieties together and harvesting them on the same schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe finished blend is harvested at the young sprout stage once the individual components have developed the flavour, colour and texture required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage \u0026amp; Food Safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFresh seed sprouts are highly perishable and should remain refrigerated at \u003cstrong\u003e5°C or below\u003c\/strong\u003e. Keep them protected from contamination and wash thoroughly under cool running water immediately before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike all raw seed sprouts, this blend can carry foodborne bacteria even when it appears fresh. People at increased risk from foodborne illness should avoid eating raw or lightly cooked sprouts and choose thoroughly cooked sprouts instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePrefer to Grow Your Own?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you would rather grow sprouts yourself, OzSprout stocks sprouting seed and reusable equipment for producing fresh batches at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOur \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/alfalfa-sprouting-seeds\"\u003eAlfalfa Sprouting Seeds\u003c\/a\u003e provide the mild leafy base used in this blend, while a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/glass-sprouting-jar\"\u003eGlass Sprouting Jar\u003c\/a\u003e provides a simple system for soaking, rinsing and thoroughly draining suitable sprouting seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause alfalfa and chive seeds develop at different rates, the chive component is best started separately and combined with the faster-growing alfalfa at the appropriate stage rather than treating all three seeds as a single crop from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor general instructions covering soaking, rinsing, drainage, harvesting and sprout food safety, see our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/blogs\/learn\/how-to-grow-sprouts-in-a-jar\"\u003eHow to Grow Sprouts in a Jar\u003c\/a\u003e guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGrowing your own is a practical option for regular home production, while our fresh grow-to-order blend is available when you would prefer the different sprouts to be grown and timed for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ozsprout","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42801942069491,"sku":"ALFALFAGARLICONIONCHIVES-F","price":3.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/1446\/5779\/files\/organic-garlic-onion-chives-alfalfa-sprouts_09520317-2678-4fdc-94c0-13e18e879853.webp?v=1759265598","url":"https:\/\/ozsprout.com.au\/products\/fresh-alfalfa-garlic-onion-chive-sprouts","provider":"OzSprout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
