HOW TO COOK LENTILS



How to cook lentils image

The cooking instructions for most lentils are relatively the same. The main difference is simply the amount of time to cook them.

Provided by EatPlant-Based.com

Categories     Sides

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 cup dry lentils
2 cups water or veggie broth

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse lentils well under warm water using a mesh strainer. I will tell you from experience that, due to their small size, lentils will fall right through a regular colander, so invest in a mesh sieve like the one I used linked here. You'll find that they handy with rinsing rice, quinoa, and many other grains as well. 2. Make sure to pick out any peoples or other debris. 3. Place the lentils in a stockpot and add 2 cups of water or vegetable broth for every 1 cup of lentils. You can add more liquid as they are cooking if they begin to look too dry. 4. Bring the pot to a boil then reduce the heat to simmer. Cover and allow to cook 20-25 minutes (brown, green, and black lentils), stirring occasionally. 5. Add liquid if necessary and continue cooking until the lentils are tender but not mushy. 6. Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Categories     Appetizer     Cocktail Party     Vegetarian     Wedding     Legume     Lentil     Shower     Healthy     Vegan     Sugar Conscious     Kidney Friendly     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 18 blini

Number Of Ingredients 17

Beluga Lentil Caviar
1/2 cup black beluga lentils
2 cups water
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons minced capers, packed in brine
2 tablespoons brine from the caper jar
Vegan Sour "Cream"
4 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Miso Mayo or white miso paste
Blini
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup organic, unbleached, all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/4 cups nondairy milk (almond, soy, or rice)
3 tablespoons vegan butter, melted
Vegan butter or nonstick cooking spray, as needed
1/2 bunch fresh chives, minced for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the beluga lentil caviar: Rinse the lentils and put them in a small pot with the water. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are soft.
  • Drain the cooked lentils and place them in medium bowl. Add the salt, capers, and caper brine. Mix well and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, and a maxi¬mum of 2 days.
  • Make the vegan sauce: Mix the vegan mayonnaise with the Miso Mayo in a small bowl and refrigerate until needed.
  • Make the blini: In a medium bowl, combine the flours and baking powder. Whisk the nondairy milk and melted butter into the flour until a batter forms. Allow the batter to rest a few minutes.
  • Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add a small dab of butter to the pan or spray it with nonstick cooking spray. To form each blin, pour a little more than a tablespoon of batter into the pan. You can usually cook 4 to 6 blini at a time. Wait until the pancakes begin to show air bubbles all over the tops and the bottoms are brown. Flip the blini over and cook until golden brown.
  • Using the back of a spoon, spread a small amount of the Vegan Sour "Cream" on each blin, add a teaspoon of the beluga lentil caviar, and top with a pinch of minced chives. Serve immediately.

BLACK BELUGA LENTIL PILAF



Black Beluga Lentil Pilaf image

No, silly, not fish roe! A recently discovered heirloom pulse I tried for the first time, beluga lentils are earthy and delicious; not mealy or dry textured! Once cooked, the lentils do look like caviar! Makes a good filling for tortillas, too! Recipe compliments of Westbrae Naturals (with just a few minor changes.)

BELUGA LENTILS



Beluga Lentils image

These tiny black lentils are named for their resemblance to caviar.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups beluga lentils (see Sources)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup diced white onion
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
1 chile de árbol
1/4 cup red wine
3 sprigs basil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse the lentils, and pick through them to remove any small stones.
  • Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat for 2 minutes. Swirl in 2 tablespoons olive oil and wait a minute. Add the onion, thyme, chile, 1 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Cook the onion, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the lentils and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook about 2 minutes, stirring to coat the lentils in the oil and vegetables. Reduce the heat to low, and add the wine. Quickly add 6 cups water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn down the heat, and simmer 25 to 30 minutes, until the lentils are tender.
  • Strain the lentils over a bowl. Toss them with the remaining 6 tablespoons olive oil, the basil sprigs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/3 cup of the cooking liquid. (Add more of the liquid if the lentils seem dry.) Taste for seasoning.
