Rich in sugars and proteins, as well as iron, they are among the most digestible legumes.

Particularly diuretic, galactogenic (promote milk production), rich in fiber and contain a high amount of mineral salts such as: calcium, phosphorus, iron and zinc; vitamins: B1, B2, B3.

How to use:
They can be used alone or in combination with other legumes or cereals.
Soaking: 3/4 hours
Cooking time: 45/50 min
Quantity of water/legume: 2/1

General advice:

Although the legumes are all carefully ventilated (a process that eliminates light impurities), calibrated (a process that selects the best grains), destoned (a process that eliminates pebbles), and asymmetrically selected (a process that eliminates immature, stained grains, etc.) , we suggest in any case to proceed with a further wash under running water. The use of a strainer or colander is very useful in this case.
