PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Some ingredients are considered classics for a reason! Organic Green Lentils are incredibly versatile and delicious dried whole vegetables! Like pasta, lentils can be cooked in salted boiling water. They cook for approximately 30 minutes (they’re tender, but still a bit crunchy), or until desired consistency. Tender with a mild, earthy taste, they can easily replace meat in meals: they can also be added to salads and soups. They mix and mash well, if you want to add more texture, thickness and flavor to your recipes.
Always have this delicious product in your pantry!
HEALTH BENEFITS: A LITTLE HEART GOOD ADD-ON!
Certified organic, Yupik green lentils are an excellent source of protein, fiber and iron! Rich in soluble fiber, they are the staple of the diet to help lower cholesterol, the risk of cardiovascular disease and stabilize blood sugar levels.
CULINARY TIP: BEYOND SOUP!
Traditionally, lentils can be used in soups, salads, curries, and delicious sides. Green lentils are also great for vegetarian meals. Thanks to their small size, they look like minced meat. Use them in place of meat in shepherd’s pies, meat loaves (mash them for this meal), meatballs, tomato bolognese sauce, stuffing, etc.
ABOUT LENSES: DID YOU KNOW?
Unlike beans, lentils do not need to be soaked, as they become tender in contact with boiling water. Although rare, small stones can be found among dried lentils. It’s always best to spread your dry lentils out on a large plate to sort them quickly before using them.
SAFE STORAGE: FRESHNESS GUARANTEED!
Store them in a cool, dry place for up to 36 months.
