Small, meaty green lentils famous as a side dish, in stews, soups, and even salads. These lentils are very similar to Lentilles du Puy, which must be grown in France. West Coast-grown for Rancho Gordo's own unique terroir, we think it adds to the flavor. French-style lentils are very small, which normally would mean the skin-to-flesh ratio would be off, but with these, the skin seems to melt in your mouth.
