Description
Beluga Lentils - 900 g
Beluga lentils belong to the category of dried legumes and are known for their characteristic dark, almost black color and their round, compact shape. They differ from other lentil types by retaining their shape well during cooking, which makes them particularly suitable for dishes where a firm consistency is desired. As a dried raw ingredient, beluga lentils require cooking before consumption and can be prepared without prior soaking, making them practical for a busy everyday life. They are well-suited for warm stews, hearty soups, cold lentil salads, and as a side dish for meat or vegetable dishes. The taste is mild and earthy with a slight nutty undertone, which harmonizes well with spices such as cumin, coriander, and bay leaf. The texture is firm and slightly creamy on the inside, even after thorough cooking. With a protein content of 14 g per 100 g, beluga lentils are a valuable source of protein, especially in plant-based diets. The carbohydrate content is 28 g per 100 g, while the fat content is low at just 1.1 g, making them a nutrient-dense and low-fat food. The energy content is 774 kJ, equivalent to 178 kcal per 100 g. The product is packed in a green bag with a window that provides a direct view of the lentils' appearance. The bag contains 900 g of dried beluga lentils and is suitable for storage in a dry and cool cupboard. Beluga lentils are a natural, unprocessed raw ingredient without additives and consist exclusively of 100% beluga lentils. They are an excellent choice for vegetarian and vegan meals, as well as for anyone who wants to increase their daily intake of plant protein and dietary fiber.
