Mumm's Sprouting Seeds Sunflower is a Mumm’s black oil sunflower microgreen seed for crunchy sunflower shoots with a nutty sunflower taste. This microgreen seed is also a sprouting seed for edible shoots when you want bold texture and clean, fresh flavor.
The flavor is the main reason sunflower shoots stay a favorite. Expect a rich, seed-like nuttiness that tastes like sunflower seeds, with a refreshing, green finish. Many people describe sunflower sprouts as slightly nutty and vegetal, with bright nuances that can come across as lightly lemony or almond-like, which keeps the taste lively instead of heavy. It’s a satisfying flavor that feels “fresh” rather than sharp, making it easy to enjoy in generous handfuls.
Aroma is gentle and inviting. Sunflower shoots tend to smell fresh and green, with a mild, toasty seed note that matches the nutty sunflower taste. The scent is noticeable up close but not pungent, so it adds a clean, appetizing “just-harvested greens” feel without lingering strongly in the room or overpowering the rest of a dish.
Texture is where this seed really earns its spot. Mumm’s calls it a crunchy microgreen, and that crunchy bite is exactly what most people look for in sunflower shoots. The mouthfeel is hearty and juicy, with a substantial crunch that feels more like tender greens than wispy sprouts. Sunflower sprouts are often described as having a pleasing texture reminiscent of spinach, which is a helpful way to set expectations: tender enough to eat easily, while still giving a thick, crisp bite that holds up well.
This black oil sunflower microgreen seed is meant for sunflower shoots, and it’s well suited to microgreens grown without soil as a growing style. Mumm’s also notes that appearance may vary from lot to lot, which is normal for seed products and does not change the eating experience once the shoots are grown. For shoppers who care about consistency, Mumm’s highlights in-house tested seed lots to support strong germination and cleanliness, with the aim of vibrant results across batches.
Mumm's Sprouting Seeds Sunflower is a good fit for anyone who wants sunflower shoots with a nutty sunflower taste, a fresh green aroma, and the hearty crunch that makes a crunchy microgreen so satisfying in everyday meals.
