CERTIFIED ORGANIC | Red Split Lentils

Organic Red Split Lentils without husks cook very quickly and break down into a puree. They are tiny, reddish-orange legumes that cook quickly, making them a perfect ingredient for quick, healthy dinners. The flavour is mild, earthy and slightly sweet (compared to the stronger earthier flavour of brown and black lentils). Red lentils break down faster than other types of lentils when cooked. Animal studies have shown that lentils can lower blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and blood glucose. Human studies have found that lentils may improve cholesterol levels in people with diabetes and may protect against breast cancer in women.
