French Green Lentils (Lens Esculenta) are a hard-to-find Lentil that are a beautiful deep fall green. These lentils contain a seed coat and are 1/2 cm. wide with a mild, earthly flavor. The French Green Lentils texture is a bit firmer than most other lentils and hold their shape well when cooked. This tiny lens shaped pulse has traditionally been used as a meat substitute (a pulse is the dried seed of any legume, such as beans and peas). Lentils are the seed of a small shrub and are dried after harvesting.Usage:Lentils do not require soaking. Simmer 1 cup lentils with 4 cups water for 20 to 25 minutes, drain. Skim the water while cooking. One cup dry yields 2 cups cooked.Ingredients:Lentils. (May contain a trace percentage of cereal grains)
