Description
Green Lentils - 900 g
Green lentils belong to the legume family and are one of the most widely used ingredients in plant-based and vegetarian cuisine worldwide. These small, round seeds have a natural, earthy flavour with a subtle nutty undertone, which pairs well with spicy dishes, mild soups, and fresh salads. The lentils are typically cooked in unsalted water for 20-30 minutes until tender but still retaining their shape, making them ideal for dishes where texture is desired. They can also be cooked softer and used as a base for purees, dips, or fillings for wraps and pies. The texture is firm and slightly creamy after cooking, and they absorb spices and flavourings exceptionally well. With a protein content of 26 g per 100 g, green lentils are an excellent source of plant-based protein and thus contribute to a balanced diet without animal products. The high dietary fibre content of 18 g per 100 g supports digestion and provides a lasting feeling of fullness. The carbohydrate content is 41 g per 100 g, while the fat content is low at only 1.1 g, making them a nutrient-dense and low-fat food. The product is delivered in a sealed 900 g bag, which keeps the lentils fresh and protected from moisture. Dried lentils should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to best preserve their quality. Green lentils are an obvious choice for vegan cooking, vegetarian diets, and for anyone looking to increase their daily intake of plant-based protein and fibre. They are suitable for cooking in large portions and can be frozen after preparation. The product is aimed at health-conscious consumers, families, and anyone interested in sustainable and nutritious everyday food.
