How To Cook
Using 3 cups of water to 1 cup of lentils. Bring a large saucepan to boil. Add the lentils, cover tightly, reduce heat and simmer until they are tender. Cooking time is typically 15-20 minutes. Be sure to season with salt after cooking as if salt is added before, the lentils will become tough. Red lentils were first grown in southern Turkey and northern Syria and are now also grown in places that have a temperate climate. Lentils are a small legume of the pea family and are grown in pods. The plants are left to grow and for the seeds inside to dry so that it sounds like the pods rattle when you shake them. The plants are then left to dry for a week or so once they have been plucked to help the seeds dry out more. The pods are then removed and the lentils removed from inside and these are then cleaned and stored.How Its Grown/Processed
