You might\u2019ve seen chefs in Singapore using microgreens as flavour enhancements or colourful garnishes on plates, or maybe you&#8217;ve spotted them as ingredients in <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/organic-skincare-singapore-natural-beauty-products\/\">skincare products<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Are they nutritional?

It\u2019s perfect for impatient individuals, as it can be ready to harvest in as little as six days! Tip: it\u2019s best to harvest before the first leaves form. Broccoli microgreens offer an abundance of vitamins A and C, as well as iron, calcium and fibre. They also contain sulforaphane, which helps fight cancer, diabetes and ageing.<\/p>\n<p>A shallow tray with drainage holes and a watering dish placed underneath will do the trick. Choose a fine grain seed soil (or coco coir works great). Water from below, on the water tray, and place it on the windowsill where it can capture natural sunlight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flavour profile:<\/strong> Earthy, mild broccoli taste<br \/>\n<strong>Soak:<\/strong> No<br \/>\n<strong>Plant:<\/strong> Day 1<br \/>\n<strong>Time to harvest:<\/strong> 1 week (they should be 2-3 inches tall)<\/p>\n<h3>3.

You\u2019ll see results within seven days and they can be harvested in as little as 10 days. Use a shallow potting tray with a water tray underneath. Get premium potting soil and scatter the seeds across. Spritz water with a spray bottle and let the seeds germinate for two to three days by covering them with a lid. Once you see them germinating, remove the lid and place them in optimum sunlight. Fill the watering tray with one-quarter inch of water so they can be watered from below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flavour profile:<\/strong> Spicy, red radish taste<br \/>\n<strong>Soak:<\/strong> No<br \/>\n<strong>Plant:<\/strong> Day 1<br \/>\n<strong>Germination:<\/strong> 2-3 days<br \/>\n<strong>Time to harvest:<\/strong> 6-10 weeks (they should be 2-3 inches tall)<\/p>\n<h3>4.

From reducing the risk of cancer to improving eye health and boosting your immune system, kale microgreens are oh-so-mighty! They\u2019re great for sandwiches and salads when you want a bolder flavour.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll need a 2-inch growing tray with a watering tray underneath. Moisten the soil and scatter seeds across. Place it on top of the watering tray, spray with a mister on top and place the tray in a dark area. It&#8217;ll take two to three days for the seeds to germinate. Once the first signs of germination occur, it\u2019s time for some sunlight. Keep the soil moist by filling the watering tray one-quarter inch each day (just make sure the potting medium is no more than one to two inches deep).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flavour profile:<\/strong> Fresh, mild, bitter notes<br \/>\n<strong>Soak:<\/strong> No<br \/>\n<strong>Plant:<\/strong> Day 1<br \/>\n<strong>Germination:<\/strong> 2-3 days<br \/>\n<strong>Time to harvest:<\/strong> 8-12 days<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re growing microgreens in a clean area, you don\u2019t have to wash them. Just snip them about half an inch above the soil line during their optimum harvest period. It\u2019s best to use microgreens while they\u2019re fresh, but you can also store them in a sealed container wrapped in a paper towel in the crisper section of your fridge for up to a week.<\/p>\n<h3>Plate like a MasterChef<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_252359\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-252359\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-252359 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/01\/microgreens-in-singapore-salad-900x643.png\" alt=\"microgreens in singapore salad\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/01\/microgreens-in-singapore-salad-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/01\/microgreens-in-singapore-salad-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/01\/microgreens-in-singapore-salad.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-252359\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Augustine Fou via Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We don\u2019t recommend cooking microgreens, as the high heat reduces their nutritional content.
