- Dehydrated Lentils
Lentils have long been cherished as a health food favorite, especially for those who relish outdoor activities. Perfect for your camping or backpacking food necessities, lentils boast an impressive shelf life and can serve as versatile cooking staples, party supplies, food supplies, or long-term food storage for survival or emergency preparedness. We believe you'll find these lentils to be an all-around superb addition to your pantry.
Our pre-cooked and dehydrated lentils simplify your meal prep! Thanks to their Fast-Cooking feature, all it takes is a quick simmer, and within minutes, they're ready to serve!
Lentils are of unparalleled quality. Tracing their origins back to 8000 - 7000 B.C. in the Near East, lentils have long been used as a meat substitute and are a common feature in many global cuisines, particularly in the Middle East and India. Lentils' peppery, savory flavor is a constant across all varieties, while the texture can vary depending on the type. French, brewer, and other lentils that are cooked with their seed coat retain a firm texture upon rehydration. Varieties like Red Chief lentils, on the other hand, are decorticated before cooking, resulting in a smooth, textured consistency. Traditionally found in soups or ethnic dishes, lentils also make a delicious addition to cold salads. When added to pasta sauce, lentils enhance the body, texture, and protein content, creating a meatless Tuscan-style sauce.
- Lentils are lauded for being a rich source of molybdenum and folate.
- They also provide a generous supply of copper, fiber, phosphorus, manganese, protein, iron, zinc, and other essential vitamins and minerals.
- Integrating dried lentils into your meals can save both time and money. They're great in recipes, entrees, casseroles, salads, or even as a standalone dish.
- They make a quick and convenient snack for those with a busy schedule.
- These lentils retain over 90% of their fresh nutritional value, ensuring you're not compromising on your nutrient intake.
- The flavor of dried lentils is robust and crunchy, often offering a taste sensation that can be more potent and piquant than some fresh produce found in grocery stores.
- They're an ideal food option for outdoor activities like traveling, hiking, and camping.
