Lentils are packed with protein; the only legume with a higher ratio of protein to food energy is the soybean! Additionally, they are a rich source of vitamins B1 and B5 (thiamine and pantothenic acid), folate, iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, and manganese.
Our organic red lentils are milder in flavor than darker varieties. They also cook more quickly and form a puree readily, making them ideal for loaves and burgers. Azure customers love to use them as a meat substitute in everything from sloppy joes and burgers to chilis, casseroles, and salads. Red lentils make for a quick and convenient meal, as they cook in 15–20 minutes and don’t require pre-soaking like larger legumes.
