    I know, those lentils take me 4-5 days to cook. O_o

      i fear eating them, since i had 2 days long migraines often, i think cooking them like this is really nesscessary, to get rid of toxins from the outher shell. but i am far to hungry for this method.

        Just an FYI, that was a joke. Lentils cook faster than any other bean and you do not need to soak them. They are super healthy for you.

            Interesting. I usually do the French Lentils because they cook the fastest. And regular brown. Red are quick but I usually use those to thicken pasta sauce since they disintegrate but add thickness and protein.

              there are like 100dreds of different ones ;-)

              usually, you have to cook them this long because the outer shell has some form of toxin against plant eating animals.
