Pousses de soja, known as bean sprouts in English, are tender shoots typically derived from mung beans. Originally popular in East Asian cuisine, they have become a versatile ingredient used worldwide in stir-fries, soups, salads, and as a fresh garnish. Low in calories, pousses de soja are a nutrient-rich choice, offering a good source of vitamin C, folate, and iron. Their high water content makes them hydrating, while their fiber aids digestion. Bean sprouts also contain antioxidants that support immune function and cellular health. However, they can pose a risk of foodborne illnesses if consumed raw or improperly stored, so it's recommended to cook them or ensure they are thoroughly washed and fresh. Crisp, slightly nutty, and nutrient-packed, pousses de soja are a healthy addition to any meal.
