Appearance 

These lentils have a lovely greenish-yellow color from the preserved shell. You can see they're split but still have their thin outer layer, showing they're less processed and more wholesome.

Texture  

Cooked lentils are soft but keep a pleasant, slight bite from the shell. They become tender while maintaining a nice texture that's not mushy.

Flavor  

Earthy and slightly nutty with a more robust flavor than the shelled version. The shell adds depth that stands up well to spices.

Aroma  

Has a warm, earthy smell when cooking that fills your kitchen with a comforting, wholesome fragrance.

Versatility  

Great for textured dals, hearty soups, and curries where you want more substance. Also works well in salads and side dishes.

Precaution 

Give them a good rinse before cooking. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.

FAQs

Does it take longer to cook than without shell?  

It cooks in about the same time - around 25-30 minutes - since it's split, just needs a bit more water.

Is the shell hard to digest? 

Not at all! The splitting process makes it easy to digest while keeping the nutritional benefits of the shell.

Can I use this for khichdi? 

Yes, it makes a wonderful khichdi with more texture and fiber than the shelled version.

Why choose this over completely skinned moong dal? 

You get more fiber, more nutrients, and a more interesting texture while still enjoying quick cooking time.
