you don't actually have to soak lentils you know. I'm sure the ones you sprouted will be fine, they just won't look like lentils anymore!

What you're growing there is lentil sprouts, lol! Are you making soup? I think it would be ok to still use them. You really don't have to soak lentils at all, they cook much faster then other types of beans. Just rinse and use in your recipe, will be tender in about 45-60 minutes of cooking.

No, throw them out.
Lentils are the only bean you don't soak.
Boil them for 20-30 minutes and they are done. Don't forget to add celery, onions and carrots to the pot. Also a can of diced tomatoes and some garlic. Serve over elbow noodles for a feast. ENJOY.

My massive brother replaced right into a scrawny little shit basically like me, so I never somewhat had to be concerned approximately that. One time while he replaced into chasing me by the abode, I did that "pull a chair out from the table as I ran by ability of it" pass although, and it completely labored. He have been given caught on it and slid around the kitchen on his face. i haven't been extra scared in my existence.

I'm sure it's not bad for you.... but eww. Just hinking of it in my soup or over rice gives me the creeps.
Next time, soak them a half-hour before using in hot water OR soak overnight in fridge.
