thats the thing - with sanitary procedures: im assuming a soak of hydrogen peroxide...followed by rinse? Is that sufficient to sprout safely?

I've read that an H2O2 soak is a reasonable precaution to reduce bacterial load, but I haven't done it yet. If I started doing that I'd be going through a lot of hydrogen peroxide.

Maybe blanching? Dunno if there's a duration long enough to kill surface inhabitants without harming the seed.

There's an indian snack of sprouted lentils zapped in the microwave for a minute or so? followed by a light sprinkly of cumin, salt, and lime/lemon juice. It's quite awesome.
