These organic green lentils have a full, earthy flavor and heavier texture than red lentils. Compared to red lentils, they hold their shape more easily and are great for lentil soup or as a meat substitute in everything from sloppy joes and burgers to chilis and casseroles. They cook in 20-30 minutes and don't require pre-soaking like larger legumes. Sort and rinse thoroughly before cooking. These lentils are grown in rotation with wheat or barley on the same farm ground. Since lentils and wheat are similar in size, trace amounts of wheat may be found in these lentils. Sourced from Azure Standard; grown in the USA or Canada. Cooking Instuctions: Cook using 3 cups liquid (water or stock of your choice) to 1 cup dry lentils. Be sure to use a large enough saucepan for the lentils to double or triple in size. Bring to a boil, cover tightly, reduce heat, and simmer until tender (about 20-30 minutes).
