For thousands of years, lentils have been an important part of the diets of many cultures around the world. Lentils should be soaked to remove anti-nutrients such as tannins and phytic acid. Lentils are a particularly good source of protein, especially for vegetarians and vegans. Lentils also provide a healthy dose of dietary fiber, B1, folate and a host of essential minerals.
NOTE: Red lentils contain the hulls and cook differently than decorticated.
FUN FACT! Lentils were found in the tombs of the Ancient Egyptians in 2400BC
