Umuthi Brown Lentil Sprouting Seeds are non-GMO legume seeds for growing fresh lentil sprouts at home. Brown lentils are well known as a nutritious cooked food, and sprouting gives them a fresh, tender texture for salads, wraps, bowls, and everyday meals. Sprouted lentils are valued for their protein, fibre, folate, iron, phosphorus, manganese, and thiamin content. They are a practical choice for customers who enjoy simple, hearty sprouts with a mild legume flavour.

♡ Why we love it: Brown lentils are easy to recognise, easy to use, and satisfying to sprout at home. They are a great everyday sprout for customers wanting something more filling than delicate leafy sprouts.
