    Dark speckled lentils give you Puy-style character at an everyday price – small, slate-flecked lentils that stay firm and nutty when cooked.

    High in protein and fibre, with 24g of protein and 8.9g of fibre per 100g, dark speckled lentils are naturally gluten-free and suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets. They hold their shape through cooking, so they never turn mushy.

    Best for

    • Warm salads and French bistro-style sides
    • Stews, ragu and braises
    • Nut roasts and pie fillings
    • Grain bowls that need a firm, peppery lentil

    FAQ

    Are dark speckled lentils the same as Puy lentils? They are the same style of lentil – only those grown in the Le Puy region of France can be sold under the Puy name. Ours are grown in Canada.

    Do they need soaking? No – just rinse well and simmer until tender. They take a little longer than red split lentils but keep their bite.

    Want the organic equivalent? Choose our organic dark green French style lentils – the certified organic version of this style.

    Available in 500g, 1kg, 2kg and 3kg resealable pouches, plus a 25kg bulk sack for trade. (Some large sizes may have non-resealable packaging.)
