Red lentils are already an integral part of your Dals, and you celebrate green lentils as a great minced meat substitute? Then it is time to complete the traffic light. Just like red lentils, these little yellow legumes are in fact peeled green and brown lentils, and they do not only take less time to cook and are therefore ideal for lightning-fast lentil dishes, but also add colour and flavour to your kitchen. Give them a try! What are yellow lentils? Originally from India, where they are indispensable for the unofficial national dish Dal, yellow lentils are, just like red lentils, already peeled and need therefore less time to cook and get mushy. Red and yellow lentils are very popular for their resulting creamy texture, but have also a few differences between them: in contrast to the sweet and mild-tasting red lentils, yellow lentils have a heartier taste, and keep their beautiful yellow colour when cooked.

Questions & answers: Organic split yellow lentils 2kg

Search FAQ section:

Do the yellow lentils contain gluten?

Lentils are naturally gluten-free. However, cross-contamination with gluten may occur during the bottling process, as our bottler also processes foods containing gluten. For this reason, we do not label our yellow lentils as gluten-free.

How should I cook the yellow lentils?

Since they are already peeled, you do not need to soak the yellow lentils. However, we recommend rinsing the peeled legumes with hot water before cooking. Then add about twice the amount of fresh water to a pot and cook the yellow lentils in it until the desired consistency is reached. The cooking time of yellow lentils is usually 10 to 15 minutes. Since our yellow lentils are smaller pieces of lentils, the cooking time is less. Exactly how long the yellow lentils should cook depends on how you plan to use the legumes. For a lentil salad or as a side dish with bite, a shorter cooking time is recommended accordingly. In addition, you can cook the lentils in this case with salt, then they become less soft.

Do yellow lentils have a lot of protein?

Yes, yellow lentils have a high protein content with 25 g per 100 g. Thus, the lentils can contribute to muscle building.

What is special about KoRo's yellow lenses?

The yellow lentils from KoRo have organic quality. Artificial colors, flavors and preservatives literally do not enter the bag with us. Unlike many manufacturers, we also do not add any oil or the like. By the way, to counteract food waste, our yellow lentils are so-called split lentils. Although we pay attention to the best quality of our lentils, it is not always possible to keep the yellow core whole when peeling and drying the green and brown lentils. This results in small yellow lentil halves, which are just as high quality as the round product and in our opinion should therefore be sold. With our practical bulk packaging, we save resources and transport distances. We use the price savings for the fair remuneration of our producers and for the protection of your wallet.

What is the shelf life of the yellow lentils?

The yellow lentils keep unopened for at least 2 years after packaging. The shelf life of yellow lentils depends essentially on the correct storage - cool and dry. If the dried lentils have expired, this is not a reason to throw them away blindly. The best-before date (BBD) should not be confused with the use-by date. It simply indicates the minimum period until which the characteristics of a food product, such as taste, odor, color, consistency and nutritional value, remain unchanged. We always recommend a visual inspection and, if necessary, an odor and taste test before consumption.

Are the yellow lentils vegan?

Yes, our yellow lentils are purely vegetable and therefore vegan. Except 100% yellow lentils literally nothing comes into our bag.

What can I do with yellow lentils?

Dishes with yellow lentils are countless. Like all other lentil varieties, yellow lentils can be served as a side dish to enrich soups, stews, dals and curries. Like red lentils, yellow lentils lend themselves to a vegan bolognese sauce by adding texture and hearty flavor. Along with this, yellow lentils can be served cold as a lentil salad or bowl entree. Since our yellow lentils are small pieces of lentils, they can be processed especially well. Try frying yellow lentils or use our yellow lentils to make a spread aka hummus. There are no limits to your creativity. You can find inspiration on our recipe page.

Are the yellow lentils organic?

Yes, our yellow lentils come from controlled organic cultivation.

Are yellow lentils healthy?

Healthy is above all a balanced and wholesome diet. Yellow lentils can contribute to a healthy diet with a high protein and fiber content. Protein, for example, helps maintain muscle mass and normal bones.

What is the alternative to yellow lenses?

If yellow lentils are too tart for you, or if you simply don't have any in your pantry, it's best to replace yellow lentils with sweet red lentils. Since both types of lentils are peeled lentils, they have very similar cooking properties. On the other hand, those who prefer a stronger flavor and more bite will find firm-cooking mountain lentils a good alternative to soft-cooking yellow lentils.

What is the difference between yellow lentils and red lentils?

Both red and yellow lentils are peeled dark lentils, which we know as green lentils or mountain lentils. Unlike red lentils, which are sweet and mild tasting, yellow lentils are heartier in flavor. Thus, yellow lentils are a more tart side dish and enrich soups, salads and spreads with their fine nutty flavor. Unlike red l entils, yellow lentils also retain their beautiful yellow color when cooked.
