Tauge, commonly known as bean sprouts, are young shoots of germinated mung beans widely used in Asian cuisines such as Chinese, Indonesian, Thai, and Vietnamese dishes. They have a crisp texture and a mild flavor, making them a versatile ingredient in stir-fries, salads, soups, and spring rolls. Nutritionally, tauge is low in calories and high in water content, making it a hydrating and weight-friendly food. It provides a good source of vitamins C and K, folate, and fiber, along with smaller amounts of iron and potassium. The antioxidants found in tauge support immune health and help combat oxidative stress. While generally healthy, raw tauge may pose a risk of foodborne illness; proper washing and cooking are recommended to minimize risks. Their light, crunchy quality makes tauge an excellent addition to balanced, nutrient-rich meals.
