Product description

Taste and texture – firm, smooth and nutty

Large-grain lentils have a firm, round shape, a smooth texture, and a mild, nutty flavor that make them versatile in cooking. They cook in about 25–30 minutes and hold their shape well, making them ideal for salads and dishes where you want a chewy texture.

Large-grain lentils, or nagymagvú lencse in Hungarian, mean the beans have larger seeds (about 6–8 mm). They hold their shape better when cooked, making them perfect for salads and dishes where you want a firm consistency.

Origin and quality – traditional lentils from Hungary

These lentils come from local growers in Hungary, where the climate and mineral-rich soil create lentils with high protein content and natural sweetness. They belong to the group of nagymagvú lencse – large-grain lentils with a tradition in Hungarian home cooking.
