Montes Dried Pardina Lentils - Small Greenish-Brown Lentils with Nutty Flavor Reviews

4.8 Rating 19 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Montes Pardina Lentils are a popular choice in Spanish cuisine, known for their small greenish-brown size and smooth texture. These lentils hold their shape well after cooking and have a light nutty flavor with a slight earthy, peppery finish. Ideal for soups, stews, and salads, Pardina lentils are perfect for Spanish lentil stews with chorizo. For best results, soak them in cold water overnight.

Must admit - I was a little sceptical that these lentils would taste substantially better than our usual (supermarket) brand....but we were knocked out yet again by the lovley flavour, bite and visual impact of this quality product. Loved the packaging for this too.....comes in its own little 'sack'!! Thank you Basco!!

Since I tried this lentils I don't want to buy other any others. They are super yummy. They are very meaty and at the same time the skin is extremely smooth and thin. I leave them soaking over night (although you probably don't need it but I think you digest them better...). We mostly cook as a stew, doing a sofrito first with carrot, peppers, onions, garlic) and Bay leave, spanish paprika (pimenton), from Basco too, gammon and chorizo. All the family love them! Even my I had to forward the recipe you have at the blog to my in laws!
