About Lentils, sprouted, cooked, stir-fried, without salt

Lentils (Lens culinaris) are small, lens-shaped legumes that have fed people for thousands of years, prized for being cheap, filling, and quick to cook. They come in a spectrum of colors and textures: earthy brown and khaki-green lentils that keep their shape for salads and sides, tiny slate-gray French Puy lentils with a peppery bite, and split red and yellow types that break down into a soft puree for soups and Indian dal.

Lentils are a plant-based nutrition powerhouse, loaded with protein and fiber along with iron, folate, potassium, and other minerals, which makes them a cornerstone of vegetarian and vegan cooking. Unlike dried beans, they need no soaking and simmer tender in roughly 20 to 30 minutes. They shine in hearty stews, spiced dals, warm grain bowls, and cool vinaigrette-dressed salads, and can even stand in for some of the meat in burgers and sauces.

Sold dried by the bag or precooked in cans, lentils keep for a long time in the pantry, ready whenever you need a fast, wholesome meal.
