The seed used for corn spouts is from sweet corn not feed corn. A
popular variety known as Deaf Smith County is often used but any sweet
corn will do. Corn sprouts can be added to
soups, casseroles, steamed and served with butter or oven dried and ground
to replace corn meal in recipes.
Sprouting time is 3 to 8 days depending on the variety
used and an optimum length of 1/2 to 1 inch.
