What are puy lentils called in Canada?!
Ive been looking for them to use in a recipe, but i cant find them anywhere. Im wondering if they are known by a different name in Canada. Thanks
Answers:
Puy lentils are only supposed to be called that if they originate from Le Puy in France. Its a protected name like Champagne, etc.
In the UK the non "puy" ones are called "green lentils". They are essentially the same thing. Small, dark (almost black in fact) and keep their shape when cooked.
