PROPERTIES: Organic red lentils are similar in size to brown lentils. The difference lies in their strong red color and their much milder flavor. They help prevent anemia during pregnancy due to their high iron content. They are easier to digest than common lentils. They regulate estrogen and testosterone levels thanks to their carbohydrates, vitamins, and proteins. These lentils have high amounts of fiber, minerals, vitamins, and especially plant protein. They contain minerals such as magnesium, iron, and zinc, as well as B-complex vitamins, phosphorus, and folic acid. This food is perfect for certain dietary regimens that require low calorie consumption. Each 100-gram serving only provides 360 calories. Additionally, it facilitates intestinal transit due to its high fiber content, reducing constipation.
PREPARATION: Organic red lentils are much easier to cook than common lentils, as they do not require soaking and can be cooked in just a few minutes. Simply add two cups of vegetable broth or water for every cup of lentils. You can also add salt, pepper, or spices to enhance the flavor. They are ideal for preparing soups, salads, creams, and more. They have become a staple ingredient in Asian cuisine, often included in creams or soups. They are also commonly seen in curry and vegetable dishes.
