About Mung beans, mature seeds, cooked, boiled, without salt

Mung beans are small, green legumes widely used across Asia — simmered into the comforting Indian dal, sweetened into desserts, and sprouted into the crunchy bean sprouts of stir-fries. Soft and mildly sweet when cooked, they're known for being gentler on digestion than many other beans.

They're high in plant protein and fiber, very low in fat, and an excellent source of folate, along with magnesium, potassium and iron. That easy-digesting, nutrient-dense profile has made them a staple of plant-based and Ayurvedic eating for centuries.

Versatile and forgiving to cook, mung beans move easily from savory dal to sweet dessert to fresh sprout — one of the most useful and easily digested legumes in the kitchen.
