Obviously you need a pack of bean sprouts.

What had left when I wanted to take picture...

Like I said, its a simple technique. So take a hand full of bean sprouts or less and put into a bowl of water. 

As you can see here all bean sprouts are floating on the bowl. It will make it easy for you to pick it up when its floating. So takes a few of it and pull away the tail at the end of it. The tail is darker looking colour compare to the body.

Separate the clean bean sprouts into different bowl/plate. When you already become an expert, you can take a bunch of it with one hand while the other hands pull the tail....

And this is a final product of clean bean sprouts....tada....

You can most of the colour is white with only yellowish head at the end of it. This is what you want to serve for your family and visitor......usually bean sprout is served as a side dish or in other word I eat it like a salad. Will share a recipe that I use bean sprout as a salad.....oh..also you can add it in your spring roll's recipe too!!
