Red Lentil Flour – a versatile, protein-rich flour for your kitchen
Govinda’s organic red lentil flour is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to cook and bake easily, quickly, and in a variety of ways. Made from gently steamed red lentils, it impresses with its exceptional workability, mild nutty flavor, and wide range of uses. Its special feature: By steaming the lentils before grinding, the flour is immediately ready to use—without needing to be soaked and with a particularly short cooking or soaking time.
Gently steamed and exceptionally easy to use
For our red lentil flour, high-quality organic lentils are steamed before being ground. This alters the structure of the starch, allowing the flour to absorb liquid more quickly and bind it particularly evenly. The result: a pleasantly creamy texture and easy application in the kitchen—perfect for modern, quick dishes.
Perfect for cooking, baking, and thickening
Red lentil flour is a true all-purpose product and can be used in many different ways:
To thicken soups and sauces
For pancakes, patties, and spreads
For pasta, bread, and pizza dough
Can be used as a partial flour substitute or on its own
Insider tip: When baking, you can replace up to 50% of the grain flour with red lentil flour. For best results, it’s recommended to use about 20% more lentil flour than wheat flour—this ensures excellent binding and a smooth dough texture. Whether you’re making savory or creative dishes, this flour ensures consistent binding and a creamy texture in your recipes.
Naturally nutritious and balanced
Red lentil flour provides natural plant-based protein and fiber and is characterized by low fat and sugar content. This makes it an ideal ingredient for a health-conscious diet—whether vegan, vegetarian, or high-protein.
