FAQs

Do I need to soak whole moong before cooking? Soaking for a couple of hours shortens cooking time, though a pressure cooker can handle it with little or no soaking.

Can I sprout these mung beans? Yes. Soak overnight, drain, and keep covered for a day or two until tails appear.

Is whole moong the same as moong dal? Whole moong keeps its green skin, while moong dal is the split, skinned yellow version. They cook and taste a little differently.
