Frequently asked questions
What makes these lentils a "superfood" for plant-based diets?
These lentils are a nutritional powerhouse, exceptionally rich in dietary fiber and plant-based protein. They are also a good source of iron, folate, and potassium, providing essential nutrients for vegan, vegetarian, and Mediterranean diets while remaining low in fat.
Why are French Green Lentils preferred over brown or red lentils for salads?
Unlike brown or red lentils, which tend to break down and become mushy (ideal for dahls or thick soups), French Green Lentils are prized for their "sturdy structure." They retain a firm, al dente bite even after cooking, making them the superior choice for warm salads, side dishes, and elegant presentations.
What does "peppery flavor" mean for these lentils?
These "lentilles vertes" have a naturally sophisticated flavor profile characterized by earthy, nutty undertones and a slight peppery finish. This unique taste allows them to stand alone as a side dish with just a touch of olive oil and salt, whereas neutral lentils often require heavy seasoning.
Do French Green Lentils need to be soaked before cooking?
No, these lentils do not require soaking. Simply rinse them in cold water to remove any dust or debris, and they are ready to cook. They have a relatively thin skin, which allows them to cook thoroughly in about 20–25 minutes without the pre-soak required by larger beans.
Are these lentils Non-GMO and Gluten-Free?
Yes. Straight From France French Green Lentils are all-natural, Non-GMO Project Verified, and naturally gluten-free. They contain no additives or preservatives, making them a clean, single-ingredient source of plant-based nutrition.
How should I store dry lentils for maximum shelf life?
Store your dry lentils in a cool, dark, and dry place. We also recommend keeping them in an airtight container to protect them from moisture and maintain their nutritional integrity.
