Sprouts vary in texture and taste. Some are spicy (radish and onion sprouts), some are hardy and are often used in oriental food (mung bean), others are more delicate (alfalfa) and are used in salads and sandwiches to add texture and moistness.

The noun LIVERY has 3 senses: 1. uniform worn by some menservants and chauffeurs. 2. the voluntary transfer of something (title or possession) from one party to another. 3. the care (feeding and stabling) of horses for pay. Familiarity information: LIVERY used as a noun is uncommon.
The word itself derives from the French livrÃ©e, meaning dispensed, handed over. Most often it would indicate that the wearer of the livery was a servant, dependant, follower or friend of the owner of the livery, or, in the case of objects, that the object belonged to them.
