Omega Whole Moong: whole green mung beans for sprouting, sabut moong dal and soups. Single 1 kg pack.
Whole moong beans, or green gram, are small olive-green beans with their skins on. They are grown mainly in East, Southeast and South Asia. Whole moong cooks into a hearty dal, sabut moong curry or soup after soaking for a few hours, and it is the bean most often sprouted at home: soak overnight, drain and keep covered for a day or two until tails appear, then add the sprouts to salads and stir-fries. Moong is also used in sweet bean pastes. Keep the dry beans in a sealed container, and refrigerate sprouts and use them quickly. In East Asia, mung beans are also cooked into sweet soups and pastes for desserts. Whole moong pairs well with ginger, garlic, tomato and garam masala in North Indian curries.
