ORGANIC PARDINAS LENTILS 1 KG

Lentils are an essential source of slow-absorbing carbohydrates and protein. It is convenient to combine them with cereals to complement the supply of essential amino acids. They contain vitamins A and B (B1, B3 and B6) and minerals (iron, zinc, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, selenium and calcium). Cooking them with foods rich in vitamin C favors the absorption of iron. The amount of insoluble dietary fiber they provide promotes satiety and helps reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood. The pardina lentil is small, brown, and has a very thin skin that is practically invisible after cooking and does not lose its skin. We cultivate these lentils in an ecological way in our own farms in the Palazuelos plain (Sigüenza) and we pack them so that you have a quality product with a very delicate flavour.

DeSpelta is a company that mainly transforms cereals from the Francisco Juberias organic farm in the Palazuelos plains (Sigüenza-Guadalajara), into organic flour and pasta.

All the wheats we use are ancient and the flours are ground whole grain in stone mills. This guarantees its properties, a great flavor. Being cereals that provide health, as the germ, bran and endosperm are in the flour.

We make the pasta in our workshop and are made from semi-wholemeal flour and semolina made from Spelled Wheat, Giganton Rye and Black Wheat, the latter wheat recovered by us and which we only market from Despelta, being the wheat that was sown in this area of Castile from very old.

Being an ecological farm, we use crop rotation as a regenerative element for the soil, which is why we can offer quality organic legumes, these provide nitrogen to the soil so that we can later have good cereals.

DeSpelta is ecology, because all its products are organic, it is ethnographic, because we recover the miller's trade in the Sigüenza area, it is quality gastronomy, our products are highly recognized among the best bakers in Spain and we want you to take home a little from our land, directly from the producer.
