FAQS

  1. How do I prepare sprouted boiled chana for the Healthy Corn Sprouts Chana Salad?

    To prepare sprouted boiled chana, soak dried chana (chickpeas) overnight in water. Drain and rinse them, then place them in a sprouting jar or a bowl covered with a damp cloth for 24-48 hours until they sprout. After sprouting, boil them until tender before using them in the salad.

  2. Can I make Healthy Corn Sprouts Chana Salad vegan or gluten-free?

  3. What are some good substitutions for ingredients in the Healthy Corn Sprouts Chana Salad?

    You can substitute sprouted boiled chana with canned chickpeas for convenience, and if you don't have boiled corn, frozen corn can be used after cooking it briefly. For a nut-free version, you can omit the roasted peanuts or replace them with sunflower seeds.
