High-quality raw materials for the preparation of your dishes, fill your pantry with legumes. These foods are highly recommended nutritionally considering their admirable composition of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, fiber, minerals, and vitamins.
They adapt perfectly to all stews, are perfect to eat in salads or to accompany other foods as a side dish.
Legumes have always been an essential part of human nutrition, and the unanimous opinion of experts is that they should be present in the diet two to three times a week and in all stages of life.
This type of food allows us to always have our pantry ready, without fear of spoiling in a short period of time as they are non-perishable and can be stored for months without losing nutritional value.
Legumes, due to their multiple qualities, are one of the most complete foods from a nutritional point of view. They provide slow-absorbing carbohydrates (the most recommended), proteins, a high fiber content, and very little fat, around 3%, which is known as "good fat," that is, polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids.
They are rich in micronutrients: minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc, and vitamins A, B, and C, and rich in antioxidant polyphenols.
In addition, they are gluten-free, making them an ideal food for people with celiac disease.
Tips for storing bulk legumes:
