Black beluga lentils are straight up goodness and a vegetarian favourite. They provide high levels of dietary fibre and protein while being naturally low in fat and sugar. These yummy, nutty and slightly earthy lentils are relatively fast-cooking and require no pre-soaking, which is a great quality when wanting to quickly whip up something nutritious and delicious. Black beluga lentils will readily absorb the flavours of other ingredients they are cooked with, making them super versatile and the end product super delicious. They tend to hold their shape well during cooking, therefore make a great addition to salads and pilafs.
