Lentils and beans are edible legumes that belong to the family of Fabaceae. They are small, lens-shaped seeds that come in various colors, including brown, green, black, and red. Lentils have been cultivated for thousands of years and are a staple food in many cultures around the world.
Here are some key points about lentils:
Nutritional Value: Lentils are highly nutritious and a good source of protein, dietary fiber, complex carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. They are particularly rich in folate, iron, potassium, and magnesium. Lentils are also low in fat and calories, making them a healthy addition to a balanced diet.
Health Benefits: Lentils offer numerous health benefits. The high fiber content promotes digestive health and helps regulate blood sugar levels. The protein in lentils is essential for muscle growth and repair. Additionally, lentils may aid in weight management, reduce the risk of heart disease, and improve overall gut health.
Culinary Uses: Lentils are versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes. They cook relatively quickly compared to other legumes and have a mild, earthy flavor. Lentils are commonly used in soups, stews, curries, salads, and side dishes. They can also be ground into flour to make bread or used as a meat substitute in vegetarian or vegan recipes.
Types of Lentils: There are several different types of lentils, each with its own characteristics and culinary uses. Some common varieties include:
Brown Lentils: These are the most widely available lentils and hold their shape well when cooked. They have a slightly earthy flavor and are commonly used in soups, stews, and salads.
Green Lentils: Green lentils have a slightly peppery taste and hold their shape even after cooking. They are often used in salads, side dishes, and hearty vegetarian meals.
Red Lentils: These lentils cook quickly and tend to become soft and mushy when cooked. They have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and are commonly used in soups, stews, and Indian dal recipes.
Black Lentils: Also known as beluga lentils due to their resemblance to caviar, black lentils hold their shape when cooked and have a rich, earthy flavor. They are often used in salads or as a side dish.
Preparation: Before cooking lentils, it's advisable to rinse them thoroughly and soak them for the least 4 hours. If time allows prefer soaking them overnight or for 8 hours. You can also sprout them for better digestion and nutrient assimilation. Lentils generally require cooking with water or broth until tender. The cooking time varies depending on the type of lentils, with red lentils cooking the fastest and green or brown lentils taking longer.
In conclusion, lentils are highly nutritious, versatile, and widely used legumes. They provide numerous health benefits and are a valuable addition to a balanced diet. Whether you enjoy them in soups, salads, or other dishes, lentils are a great source of plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients.

0:00 Keto-friendly bread
0:28 How to make keto bread
10:16 Tasting the low carb bread
INGREDIENTS:
DRY INGREDIENTS:
1 cup almond flour
1 cup arrowroot flour
1/3 cup coconut flour
1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp active dry yeast
1 ½ Tbsp very finely ground chia seeds
2 Tbsp organic psyllium husk powder
WET INGREDIENTS:
1 ¼ cup filtered water
2 tsp maple syrup (This is consumed by the yeast, which lowers the glycemic index.)
1 egg
DIRECTION:
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot flour, coconut flour, and sea salt.
Heat water at 105-110 °F. Add 2 tsp of maple syrup and stir. Add the yeast and let the mixture stand for 10 minutes. The yeast should bubble or foam. If it doesn’t, start all over again.
Stir the finely ground chia and psyllium powder into the yeast mixture. Let it stand for 1 minute to thicken, then whisk.
Pour the thickened yeast-chia mixture into the dry ingredients, and mix with a wooden spoon until thick and fully combined. The dough will be slightly sticky, but workable. Knead for 1 minute.
Put the kneaded dough back into the bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and place in a warm spot to rise for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven at 425 °F with a pizza stone (or cooking sheet) inside.
Divide the dough into two balls. Place one of the dough balls on a square parchment paper or a cutting board. Dip your hands in water and shape the other big dough ball into small round balls. Brush with egg wash, if desired. Use a serrated knife to cut a tic-tac-toe pattern on the top.
Slide the prepared dough onto the preheated stone or cooking sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Please note that baking time can vary; the measure of doneness is an internal temperature of 205-210 °F.
Let your baked goodies cool completely on a wire rack. (Not allowing the loaf to fully cool before cutting may result in a gummy interior.) Once completely cooled, slice and serve, or store in an airtight container. To re-crisp crust, toast or reheat at 375 °F for 5-10 minutes.
