Green lentils are a staple in our pantry! They can easily
be cooked up and added to different meals for a boost of
nutrition. We love tossing green lentils in salads, and
even using them in veggie burgers for a vegetarian source
of protein. Lentils can also be used as a meat substitute
for tacos, and will complement any meal as a healthy side
dish. Try mashing them up and using them as a dip for chips
at your next party.
How to Cook Green Lentils
Rinse one cup of dried lentils with water. Transfer them to
a saucepan and add two cups water. Add any seasoning to be
used at this time. Bring the water to a rapid simmer, then
reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Continue to cook
uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes. Once the lentils are
cooked, strain them and add a touch of salt to taste.Here
are some key points about lentils
Lentils are an excellent natural source of folate and
manganese.
They are an economical source of protein.
Evidence suggests they protect heart health.
Lentils are an easy-to-prepare, versatile, and nutritious
ingredient.Lentils are pulses that are part of the legume
family. The two most common and popular lentils are the red
lentils and green lentils. Red lentils are usually
available split. As compared to other lentils, they tend to
cook faster, in no more than 30 minutes. They have a sweet
and nutty flavor and they tend to be quite tender after
cooking often unable to retain its shape. Green lentils
have a glossy exterior and a robust peppery flavor, a
flavor that can be described as more earthy. They are
usually available as whole and can be sprouted and added to
salads raw. When cooking, they take longer to cook, more
than 45 minutes. They also tend to keep a firm texture
after cooking.
Lentils are pulses that are part of the legume family. The
lentil plant has lens-shaped seeds that grow two seeds in a
pod. In fact, the modern lens is named for lentils. Lens is
the Latin name for lentils.
Lentils are a popular crop originating from Asia and
Northern Africa. They were in fact on one of the first
crops to be domesticated. According to archaeological
evidence, lentils were eaten up to 13,000 years ago. They
are also considered to be quite nutritious, with a very
little calorie count...
One of the first crops ever domesticated, lentils are a nutritious food legume that is one of the primary sources of protein for much of the world today.
Lentils are grown for their seeds, which are typically canned or packaged for retail sale in while or split form. Lentils can also be processed into flour, which can be added to cereal flour to make breads, cakes and baby foods. Lentils are used in soups, stews, salads, casseroles, snack food and vegetarian dishes. In Southeast Asia, split red lentils are used in curries.
Lentils are often used as a meat extender or substitute because of their high protein content and quality of nutrition. Lentils have a shorter cooking time than other pulses and do not need to be pre-soaked.
Pulses, including lentils, are increasingly being used in health-conscious diets to promote general well-being and reduce the risk of illness. They are low in fat, high in protein, have a low glycemic index and are an excellent source of both soluble and insoluble fibre, complex carbohydrates, vitamins (especially B vitamins) and minerals (including potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc).
Lentils are an inexpensive, high-quality source of protein, making them an invaluable part of a vegetarian diet. Since lentils are high in fibre, low in fat and are cholesterol free, they are an excellent heart-healthy food that may be beneficial to the prevention of coronary and cardiovascular disease
