Organic Red Split Lentils without husks cook very quickly and break down into a puree. They are tiny, reddish-orange legumes that cook quickly, making them a perfect ingredient for quick, healthy dinners. The flavour is mild, earthy and slightly sweet (compared to the stronger earthier flavour of brown and black lentils). Red lentils break down faster than other types of lentils when cooked. Animal studies have shown that lentils can lower blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and blood glucose. Human studies have found that lentils may improve cholesterol levels in people with diabetes and may protect against breast cancer in women.

These lentils are grown in Victorian Wimmera soils, grown without use of chemicals and artificial fertilisers using sustainable biodynamic principles which improve the health of the soil. Red lentils are a great source of protein, iron and fibre and so versatile. Once cooked they can be mashed into roll fillings or formed into burgers. See our website for more recipes and information on how to cook lentils.
