Description
A striking combination of French green, petite crimson, brown and black lentils, our Gourmet Lentil Blend is a versatile medley of sizes, colors and textures. This unique blend is ideal for thickening soups and stews, but it can also be used as a colorful stuffing for vegetables or cooked with curry spices and served alongside rice.
Lentils are small, lens-shaped legumes that are known for their quick-cooking nature and high protein content. Believed to be one of the world’s oldest legumes.
The bushy, annual lentil plant is a member of the legume family, growing about 16 inches tall with seed-producing pods. The dried seeds stored within those pods are the lentils themselves.
Unlike beans, lentils do not need to be presoaked and are therefore much faster to cook. They are often paired with grains or rice to provide a complete, balanced dish.
 
Storage & handling
Store in a cool, dry place.
