Lentils procurement guide

Lentils differ by type, seed size, colour and whether they are whole, dehulled or split. Red, green, brown and speciality lentils should be quoted against their own cooking and appearance requirements.

Food and processing uses

Whole green or brown lentils suit salads and prepared foods; dehulled split red types are commonly used for dhal, soups, purees and milling.

Grain grade and cooking quality

Specify type, whole or split form, calibre or screen, colour, moisture, foreign matter, broken or damaged seeds, insect damage and cooking-quality expectations.

Dry storage and shipment

Protect from moisture, odour and infestation in suitable bags or lined bulk formats. Identify retail, food-service or processing pack requirements and lot traceability.
