Lentils are nutritious, high in fiber and simply delicious. Vegans and vegetarians should regularly include lentils in their diet.

Depending on the variety, cooking can take some time. Soaking makes lentils easier to digest and saves you energy. Salting them before cooking reduces the phytic acid content of lentils. It is often said that legumes take longer to cook if you add salt while cooking. But salt can be added directly during cooking during the cooking process.
