Description

What are Broccoli Raab Sprouting Seeds?

Organic Broccoli Raab Sprouting Seeds (also known as rapini) are for growing fresh, peppery sprouts or microgreens at home. The botanical name is Brassica rapa var. ruvo.

These seeds suit either the jar method for sprouts or the tray method for microgreens, and are ready to harvest within a matter of days once growing — no garden, greenhouse or outdoor space needed, just a windowsill with reasonable light. The flavour carries the same peppery, broccoli-raab character as the mature vegetable, which makes it a popular addition to salads, sandwiches and bowls once harvested.

Sprouting is a simple way to grow your own fresh food indoors, and broccoli raab is a good option if you want something with more bite than milder sprouts. This is an organic, high-germination seed with no additives, and it's suitable for a vegan diet.

Nature's Root supplies it in sizes from 60g up to 5kg, so it suits anything from an occasional batch to regular home growing.

How to use

How to grow Broccoli Raab Sprouting Seeds

  1. Soak 2 tablespoons of seed per 1-litre jar in plenty of cool water for 2–4 hours.
  2. Drain well and keep the jar at room temperature, out of direct sun, tilted so excess water runs out.
  3. Rinse and drain 2–3 times a day. Keep the soak short: soaking for longer than 4 hours can reduce germination.
  4. Green up: on the last day, move the jar into indirect light so the little leaves turn green.
  5. Harvest after 4–5 days, when the sprouts are 2.5–4cm long with small green leaves. Give them a final rinse, drain very well and keep them in the fridge, using within 2–3 days.

How to grow broccoli raab microgreens on a tray (8–12 days)

  1. Prepare a shallow tray with a damp hemp or coir mat, a few layers of kitchen paper or 1–2cm of moist seed compost.
  2. Sow: There's no need to soak the seed first. Scatter the seed thinly and evenly, using about 15–20g for a standard 25 × 50cm tray or 4–5g for a 15 × 20cm tray.
  3. Cover for 2–3 days to keep the seeds dark and moist while they germinate. Mist them if the surface starts to dry.
  4. Grow on in bright light, watering from below so the base stays damp but not soggy.
  5. Cut just above the base once the first pair of leaves has opened, usually after 8–12 days.

Quality & Sourcing: Nature's Root selects high-quality organic seed and packs it carefully to maintain freshness. Batches are checked for quality and handled in line with good manufacturing practices.

Allergens & Storage: Packed in a facility that handles nuts and sesame. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Reseal after opening.

Food safety: The Food Standards Agency advises cooking sprouted seeds until they're steaming hot all the way through before eating, unless they're sold as ready to eat. Home-grown sprouts aren't, so cook them first, and keep them in the fridge once harvested.

Method: Jar sprouts (3-5 days): rinse the seeds, soak for 6-8 hours, then drain well. Rinse and drain 2-3 times daily, keeping the jar tilted for airflow, until sprouted to your liking. Microgreens (7-10 days): spread the seeds thinly on a pre-moistened mat or fine seed compost in a shallow tray, cover for 24-48 hours, then uncover to bright, indirect light and bottom-water to keep evenly moist.

Ready to harvest: 3-5 days for jar-grown sprouts; 7-10 days for tray-grown microgreens.

Questions before you choose

Can't see your question? Get in touch and we'll help.

Why is the soak so short?

Broccoli raab seeds take up water quickly. Soaking for longer than about 4 hours can reduce how many seeds sprout.

How long do broccoli raab sprouts take?

About 4–5 days in a jar, or 8–12 days as microgreens on a tray.

How much seed should I use?

About 2 tablespoons for a 1-litre jar, or 15–20g for a standard 25 × 50cm tray (4–5g for a 15 × 20cm tray).

What does broccoli raab taste like?

Tangier and more mustardy than broccoli, with a slightly bitter finish. It pairs well with garlic, chilli and lemon.

Should I cook sprouts before eating them?

Yes. The Food Standards Agency advises cooking sprouted seeds until they're steaming hot all the way through, unless they're sold as ready to eat. Home-grown sprouts aren't, so cook them before eating.

Is it suitable for vegans?

Yes.

How should I store the seeds?

Keep them sealed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, and reseal the pouch after opening.
