CLEAR CREEK Certified Glyphosate Residue Free Red Lentils | 4 LB | Non-GMO | Kosher | Vegan

This was my first time to try lentils. After reading their many nutritional benefits for healthy eating, and their quick and easy preparation, I was convinced. These are fast to cook and with butter and seasoning, very good. I can tell they’ll make a good addition to long-simmering soups or stew for extra texture and protein.

By far the finest I've ever purchased, whether packaged or bulk, or from a co-op or a supermarket. Great flavor and texture-- made a velvety pureé. Zero waste to cull. Outstanding quality.

Excellent quality and fresh. Bright color, clean. Glycosate free. It’s hard to find that in legumes. Glycosate aka round up is used in many dried grains and cereals, etc.. Probably not a whole lot parts per billion, but it causes cancer, among other health issues over time. I know I can’t eliminate harmful chemicals from my diet, but I can reduce them. This brand is the only brand I buy my legumes from. I’ve bought different dried lentils and peas for Clear Creek several times. There’s never been any rocks, or bugs in them. I’ve bought legumes from health food store bulk bins to find weevils in my cabinets wereks later. Not with Clear Creek. I always have left over lentils from this brand for months at times. The resealable package is air tight, and no sign of bugs or spoilage. All I have to do is wash them good in a strainer, and cook them up. I use lentils mostly in soups. Check out their Beluga black lentils. Those are amazing. I combine black and red lentils in curry soups. The black lentils hold their shape, while the red lentils get creamy. Gives an extra nutty flavor. So so good.

Top Tier Lentils, great for making all sorts of things, from South Indian Curries to Jamaican Coconut Lentil Curry to making Ezekiel style breads and all sorts of other things. These lentils taste phenomenal, Hell, with the right tricks, you can use these in keto recipes and get great benefits from them. The trick is to presoak them in a pinch of baking soda or potassium bicarbonate per quart of water until they're covered by at least 2 inches, that removes the saponins, flatulence inducing starches, and catalyzes the breakdown of the lectins legumes all have, then either pressure cook or boil them really hard on high heat for 30 minutes before you actually season and cook them. The aquafaba is great to use for other things as well. The cook time is about the same as any other red lentil. They work the same level of ease as any other lentil, but they taste phenomenal, they're worth the purchase for avoiding glyphosate and its residues. They're what you expect in freshness of dried legumes, which is a plus as well.

The lentils were great. Cooked up nice and tender and they have a great flavor. But I am really concerned about how they're shipping them. It's in a loosely woven burlap sack. That's it. Mice, rats and bugs are just a part of food shipping and warehouse life. To risk contamination by not sealing any food in a moisture proof/airtight container or bag in 2026 is insane. Moisture can get in and cause mold growth and contamination from rat droppings is a real risk. (Lepto and Haunta virus anyone?) So these food shipping bags are a bit scary to me. I personally wouldn't feed them to kids for sure. High ideals are wonderful until they meet reality.

I purchased the red lentils for a meal prep recipe and they are great and I will be purchasing again.

These are beautiful WHOLE RED LENTILS. The product picture shows split. My photo shows what came out of the bag delivered today... they tiny whole red lentils. Very clean and good quality...BUT not what the ptoduct picture shows. DISOPOINTED!.

Love the bag it came in. Because it helps keep it fresh. I live in humid environment. The bag minimizes the humidity that creates mold.

Excelente calidad, me encantó que vienen en un costal de tela y una calca con todos los sellos.
