Love at First Sprout

It all started on my first trip to India ..... Crunchy, tasty, healthy little sprouts that were added to many dishes prepared by my host family.

The flavors of fresh ginger, garlic, onion and tomato --- plus an array of spices and sprouts --- made for a new culinary experience that I wanted to recreate in my own home.  I wanted to learn how these little sprouts appeared magically overnight from the kitchen to the table.  So this is how my love affair began.......The seed was planted in India, and then it took root and sprouted in my neighborhood, Washington Heights, Manhattan.
