FAQ
Do brown lentils need soaking? No – rinse well in 3-4 changes of water, then boil and simmer until tender.
Brown or green lentils? Brown are the milder, softer all-rounder; organic green lentils are firmer and more peppery, better for salads and sides.
Is there a non-organic version? Yes – our natural brown lentils are the same store-cupboard staple at a lower price; this listing carries organic certification.
