NY SPICE SHOP French Lentils - 1.5 Pound Jar - Green Lentils

NY Spice Shop French lentils are a variety of green lentils. What sets them apart from standard green lentils is their slightly darker hue and smaller size — they’re about one-third the size of standard green lentils. They are special because they take less time to cook and hold their shape extremely well. They are the ideal contender for salads as well as light soups when you’d rather the lentils in the pot not turn to mush. Their flavor is also slightly different than other types; it’s a bit nutty and peppery, with a slight mineral-like, earthy flavor. Lentils du Pay are French Lentils grown in the Puy region of France.
