MattisManzel?: I have no idea about the global dryness of dryed lentils except for Germany and Italy. Dryed lentils here in Europe are so dry, they won’t get “tender”, even if you cook them for hours. You absolutely have to put them in a bowl of water best a whole day before and let them swell. Just my 0.02 Euro.
