too much of an effort to grow one own's taogeh
just get it straight from the store can alrd


besides, u can't keep it for too long
& once u cooked food w/ it [e.g. like fried bee hoon] better finish it in a day

not advisable to keep it overnight
the food will go bad

* used to hate eating it when young
but soon kinda love it as me gets older [late teens] :o

Why cannot buy them from supermarket or wet market? Any diff?
i actually don't intend to sprout green bean sprouts. Its for my broccoli sprouts.
I'm doing it for fun.
DIY is around 8 times cheaper
immediate freshness (better nutritional content & texture)
0 pesticides

Just bought a sprouting jar. Intend to grow broccoli sprouts with it but the seeds not arrived yet. As i have green beans at hand, grow some tau gey first. This is 40g of organic green beans that grew to exactly 200g of tau gey.




Its not as fat or as beautiful as the ones bought from our supermarket. Infact it is thin ugly and fiberous. The roots looks like spike hammer :s13:


Added black vinegar, chilli, garlic, soy sauce. Make 凉拌 out of it. :LOL:
Dunno, looks ugly to me, no offence.

Maybe is because I dun like to eat tao gay anyway. :o
