Green Lentils Du Puy

These lentils are a benchmark French pantry staple, prized for their firm texture, earthy flavor, and ability to hold their shape after cooking. Grown exclusively in the volcanic soils of the Haute-Loire in central France, these A.O.P. lentils develop a distinctive mineral depth and peppery finish that set them apart from other green lentils. Their small size and naturally resilient skin make them especially versatile in both simple and refined dishes.

Green Lentils du Puy cook evenly without turning mushy, making them ideal for salads, warm grain bowls, soups, and classic French preparations. They perform beautifully in vinaigrette-dressed salads, alongside roasted vegetables, or as a base for slow-simmered dishes where texture matters. Their ability to absorb flavor while maintaining structure also makes them a reliable choice for chefs and home cooks looking for consistency and control.

Sabarot was founded in 1819 in France’s Haute-Loire region and has worked with Green Lentils du Puy since 1900, becoming one of the most respected producers of premium pulses in France. Still family-led after six generations, the company combines direct sourcing from regional growers with advanced sorting and packaging techniques, maintaining a strong commitment to quality, traceability, and the preservation of traditional French agricultural products.
