Discover the Nutritional Properties of Organic Brown Lentils

Organic Brown Lentils stand out for their richness in essential nutrients, making them a healthy option for any diet. This superfood is an excellent source of carbohydrates and proteins, essential for optimal body function.

Main Benefits:

• Vitamins and Minerals: High levels of iron, zinc, magnesium, sodium, potassium, selenium, calcium, and B complex vitamins (B2, B3, B6, B9), as well as vitamins A and E.
• Fiber Source: Promotes healthy intestinal transit, helping to prevent constipation.
• Low-Fat Protein: Lentils' proteins, along with their fiber content and satiating ability, make them an ideal choice for a balanced diet.

Preparation

To get the maximum flavor and texture, it is recommended to calculate between 60 and 80 grams of raw lentils per person. When cooked, lentils multiply their weight by approximately two and a half times.

• Cooking without Soaking: Although not necessary, soaking them for two or three hours can reduce cooking time.
• Proper Cooking: Cover with cold water and cook to prevent the skin from coming off. If you need to add water, do it slowly and at a warm temperature.
• Cooking Time: Most varieties are ready in about 45 minutes.

Organic brown lentils are versatile and can enhance a wide variety of dishes:

• Salads: Add to salads for a nutritious touch.
