Beluga Lentils

They're shiny black when cooked, and look very much like black beluga caviar. The taste is suitably lentil-ly with a slight mineral edge.

Gorgeous in salads especially with lemon and olive oil. Absolutely stunning in stuffed roasted vegetables.

When cooked in excess water, the water will turn jet black which should be used to make a gorgeous vegetarian risotto nero.
