Yellow lentils are ready to complete your pantry rainbow. If red lentils are already a staple in your dal creations and green lentils double as a Bolognese substitute, it's time to add yellow to the mix. Like red lentils, yellow lentils are simply hulled green or brown lentils. Bright, versatile and packed with flavour, these split legumes cook quickly, making them perfect for speedy lentil dishes.

Cooking with yellow lentils: versatile and easy

Lentils are culinary all-rounders, prized worldwide for their simple preparation. In India, red and yellow lentils form the base for curries and are key for the popular dal. Across the globe, they enrich soups and hearty stews. Yellow lentils can also shine cold in salads or as a bowl topping. Their split form makes them perfect for further processing into lentil patties, lentil spreads, or flour. Packed with protein (25g /100g), they’re a favourite in vegan kitchens. Quick tip: always rinse lentils under running water before use.

Full flavour, top quality

Our yellow lentils come from certified organic farming. During hulling and drying, some lentils may split, producing halves that are just as high-quality as the whole lentils. To reduce food waste, we sell these split yellow organic lentils without added colours or flavourings. Lightly oiled for an even shine and reduced dust, they bring a sunny touch to your dishes and brighten up any meal!

*These organic yellow lentils may contain traces of gluten. More information can be found in the FAQs.

Questions & answers: Organic split yellow lentils 2kg

Search FAQ section:

Do the yellow lentils contain gluten?

Lentils are naturally gluten-free. However, cross-contamination with gluten may occur during the bottling process, as our bottler also processes foods containing gluten. For this reason, we do not label our yellow lentils as gluten-free.

How should I cook the yellow lentils?

Since they are already peeled, you do not need to soak the yellow lentils. However, we recommend rinsing the peeled legumes with hot water before cooking. Then add about twice the amount of fresh water to a pot and cook the yellow lentils in it until the desired consistency is reached. The cooking time of yellow lentils is usually 10 to 15 minutes. Since our yellow lentils are smaller pieces of lentils, the cooking time is less. Exactly how long the yellow lentils should cook depends on how you plan to use the legumes. For a lentil salad or as a side dish with bite, a shorter cooking time is recommended accordingly. In addition, you can cook the lentils in this case with salt, then they become less soft.

Do yellow lentils have a lot of protein?

Yes, yellow lentils have a high protein content with 25 g per 100 g. Thus, the lentils can contribute to muscle building.

What is special about KoRo's yellow lenses?

Our yellow lentils are true all-rounders! They are organically grown, lightly oiled and therefore particularly low in dust and beautifully shiny. Because they are split lentils, they cook in a flash and are extremely versatile – ideal for dals, curries, soups or salads. And best of all, they contain no artificial colours or flavours!

What is the shelf life of the yellow lentils?

The yellow lentils keep unopened for at least 2 years after packaging. The shelf life of yellow lentils depends essentially on the correct storage - cool and dry. If the dried lentils have expired, this is not a reason to throw them away blindly. The best-before date (BBD) should not be confused with the use-by date. It simply indicates the minimum period until which the characteristics of a food product, such as taste, odor, color, consistency and nutritional value, remain unchanged. We always recommend a visual inspection and, if necessary, an odor and taste test before consumption.

Are the yellow lentils vegan?

Yes, our yellow lentils are purely vegetable and therefore vegan. Except 100% yellow lentils literally nothing comes into our bag.

What can I do with yellow lentils?

Dishes with yellow lentils are countless. Like all other lentil varieties, yellow lentils can be served as a side dish to enrich soups, stews, dals and curries. Like red lentils, yellow lentils lend themselves to a vegan bolognese sauce by adding texture and hearty flavor. Along with this, yellow lentils can be served cold as a lentil salad or bowl entree. Since our yellow lentils are small pieces of lentils, they can be processed especially well. Try frying yellow lentils or use our yellow lentils to make a spread aka hummus. There are no limits to your creativity. You can find inspiration on our recipe page.

Are the yellow lentils organic?

Yes, our yellow lentils come from controlled organic cultivation.

Are yellow lentils healthy?

Healthy is above all a balanced and wholesome diet. Yellow lentils can contribute to a healthy diet with a high protein and fiber content. Protein, for example, helps maintain muscle mass and normal bones.

What is the alternative to yellow lenses?

If yellow lentils are too tart for you, or if you simply don't have any in your pantry, it's best to replace yellow lentils with sweet red lentils. Since both types of lentils are peeled lentils, they have very similar cooking properties. On the other hand, those who prefer a stronger flavor and more bite will find firm-cooking mountain lentils a good alternative to soft-cooking yellow lentils.

What is the difference between yellow lentils and red lentils?

Both red and yellow lentils are peeled dark lentils, which we know as green lentils or mountain lentils. Unlike red lentils, which are sweet and mild tasting, yellow lentils are heartier in flavor. Thus, yellow lentils are a more tart side dish and enrich soups, salads and spreads with their fine nutty flavor. Unlike red l entils, yellow lentils also retain their beautiful yellow color when cooked.
