How to Grow Mappe Green Mung Beans

For large sprouts, sow seeds during the spring or summer in sandy soil. The location should be bright but not too hot. Broadcast seeds on soil and cover with a thin layer of growing medium. Keep uniformly moist. For smaller sprouts, use a sprouting jar indoors. Wash seeds thoroughly before planting and wash sprouts well before eating. For pod growing, sow seeds in the spring or summer after the last frost in a warm, sunny location. Keep the soil moist throughout the life of the plant. Fertilize if the leaves look pale during the midseason. Growing needs are comparable to classic green beans.

Harvesting Mappe Green Mung Beans

Hand-pick the delicious pods with a knife when they reach 3-4”. Harvest filet beans when the diameter is 1/8-1/4" at most and before beans start to bulge in the pods. Some cultures also eat immature mung bean pods which are typically cooked whole.

Culinary Tips

For the girthiest, crunchiest bean sprouts, put a weight on top of the beans as they are sprouting. This pressure will build up the necessary compounds to grow robust sprouts! Mung Bean sprouts are also commonly added into stir-fries or as a garnish for soups. Enjoy the sweet and nutty bean as you would any other dried bean. They are rich in protein.
