Beluga is a premium lentil that is higher in protein and fiber than regular lentils. It does not overcook and retains its shape. Plus, it doesn't even need to be soaked before cooking, saving you time. With a slightly nutty flavour, it is suitable as a side dish for meat and vegetarian dishes and as a base for soups and salads. It gets its name from its resemblance to caviar, which gives it a touch of exclusivity and makes it a great garnish for dishes.
It contains 24% protein and 9% fibre, so it's sure to fill you up and support the proper functioning of your digestive system. Unlike most other lentils, it does not cause bloating. It's a great source of iron, phosphorus, magnesium and B vitamins that promote overall health and vitality. Its high fiber content also helps keep blood sugar levels under control, making it a food suitable for diabetics.
Small‑grained black lentils.
