Black lentils, also known as beluga lentils for their resemblance to caviar, are small but mighty, packed with nutrients and earthy flavor. These lentils hold their shape beautifully after cooking, making them ideal for salads, grain bowls, and elegant side dishes. High in protein, iron, and fiber, they’re a nutrient-dense addition to vegetarian and omnivorous diets alike. Their rich, slightly nutty flavor pairs well with bold seasonings and fresh herbs, elevating simple ingredients into satisfying meals.
In the kitchen, black lentils are incredibly versatile. Simmer them with aromatics for a warm side, toss with vinaigrette and goat cheese for a Mediterranean-style salad, or stir into stews and soups for added depth and texture. They also pair beautifully with roasted root vegetables, citrus zest, or a poached egg on top. Rinse before cooking and simmer until tender, usually around 25–30 minutes.
Ingredients: Black lentils.
