Legumes

Legumes such as beans, lentils, chickpeas, etc. are low in calories but nevertheless saturating, very rich in nutrients and have a high protein content. The latter makes them an ideal meat substitute and ensures a sustainable, climate-friendly diet. They are part of many popular stew dishes and an ideal accompaniment to fish and meat.
Most legumes must be cooked before eating. It is also advantageous to soak them in cold water before cooking, as this will reduce the cooking time.
Attention: Salt only at the end of the preparation, otherwise they will not soften.
