About Uncooked red split lentils

Uncooked red split lentils are a vibrant, versatile legume commonly used in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean cuisines. Originating from lentil plants, these quick-cooking pulses are hulled and split for easier preparation, making them ideal for soups, stews, curries, and purees. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like folate, iron, and potassium, they are a heart-healthy choice that supports digestion, muscle function, and energy production. Low in fat and free from cholesterol, red split lentils are especially suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. While they’re naturally gluten-free and nutrient-dense, moderation is key in large quantities due to their high carbohydrate content. They’re an affordable and sustainable ingredient that provides a rich source of nourishment while adding a subtle, earthy flavor to dishes.
