Shiloh Farms - Organic Petite Black Lentils 16 oz - 2 Pack

Shiloh Farms - Organic Petite Black Lentils 16 oz - 2 Pack
- SHILOH FARMS Petite Black Lentils, with an intense black color resembling caviar when cooked, have a hearty, earthy flavor and dense texture. They have an amazing ability to absorb flavors, making them a favorite addition to salads, pilafs, and main course meat dishes.
- High in dietary fiber, B Vitamins, and a variety of minerals (including phosphorus, iron, copper, folate, and magnesium), lentils are behind only soybeans among legumes in their protein content by mass. In fact, despite being the smallest of the lentil family, these plump black beauties have higher protein of any other variety!
- To Cook: While black lentils do not require pre-soaking, doing so can significantly reduce their cooking time. First, sort* and thoroughly rinse lentils. Add 1 part lentils to 2 parts water and soak overnight. Drain well, then bring lentils and 2 parts water to a boil. Lower heat to simmer and cook until tender, about 20-30 minutes (30-45 minutes if not pre-soaked).

Lower heat to simmer and cook until tender, about 20-30 minutes (30-45 minutes if not pre-soaked). Lentils must not be overcooked or they will become soft and mushy. Test frequently during cooking, then come to your own decision when they are tender and taste "done." Remember, intended use dictates desired tenderness. It is better to cook lentils to a firm stage for salads, freezing, and longer-cooking recipes. If you plan to puree or mash the lentils, cook until very soft.
