Red Chief Lentils

- Next, place lentils in a pot, cover with sufficient water, and bring to a slow boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender. Add water as needed.
- Simmer time can vary from 15 minutes to an hour.
- Note: As with any supply of dry natural lentils, this product may contain small pebbles, so please remember to sort your lentils first.
Yield — 1 cup weighs about 1/2 pound. 2 cups of dry lentils equals about 4-5 cups cooked lentils.
