Organic Beluga Lentils\n\nIngredients: Organic Beluga Lentils\n\nOrigin: Canada\n\nOrganic Beluga Lentils have a deep black tone and are named after the caviar they resemble. Beluga are less common than other lentil varieties and are grown in the cool dry climates of America and Canada's Northern plains.\n\nLentils are one of the oldest sources of food, dating back nearly 9,000 years. They make a great cupboard staple because they are high in protein and fibre. They are also a rich source of nutrients with one 70g serving offering high levels of B1, Folate, Iron, Zinc and a source of B5, B6, Magnesium, Manganese, Potassium, Phosphorus and Copper.\n\nBeluga lentils stay firmer and more intact than other forms of lentil so are popular in dishes such as salad or braised lentils. The water they are cooked in turns black and this can be used to add rich colour to other foods such as soups or rice.\n\nOrganic Beluga Lentils make a good addition to vegetarian and vegs
