Brown Lentils

Order brown lentils

Brown lentils are a classic, versatile legume with a rich, slightly nutty flavor. They remain firm after cooking, making them perfect for soups, stews, curries, and meal salads. If you order before 4:00 PM, you will receive them the day after tomorrow.

What are brown lentils

Brown lentils are dried lentils from the legume family. They are known for their firm texture and mild flavor. Unlike red lentils, brown lentils do not fall apart as easily, making them ideal for dishes where you want to maintain some "bite."

Preparation

Preparing brown lentils is easy.

1. Rinse the lentils briefly under cold running water.

2. Soaking is not mandatory, but optional (they will cook slightly faster).

3. Cook the lentils in plenty of water, without soaking beforehand.

4. Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes until tender.

5. Drain and incorporate into your dish.

Tip: for salads, cook for a slightly shorter time so they remain extra firm.

Storage

Store brown lentils in an airtight jar or bag in a cool, dry, and dark place. This way, they will keep for up to 2 years without much loss of flavor or quality.
