About Seed sprout

A seed sprout is a seed that has begun to germinate and is eaten as a young plant. The seed source is not specified, so the name may cover sprouts with different shapes, flavours, and food uses.

Sprouts are commonly used fresh in salads, sandwiches, or cooked dishes. They may include the emerging shoot and seed remnants, with crisp or tender texture depending on the type and stage of growth. No particular seed or preparation is established by this label.
