Default Sprouting Seeds

We would like to try sprouting some seeds but are not sure what sort
of container would be best. Can you use an ordinary large glass jar?


I do just fine with a wide-mouth quart jar: soak the seeds overnight, then
hold the lid against it and drain and rinse. Repeat a couple of times a
day until the sprouts are the size you wish. I've done fenugreek, but
mostly mung beans.
