FAQ
How to make lentil flour?
Making gluten-free lentil flour is so easy. Just put lentils into the blender and blend for a few seconds. Make sure you are using a high-speed blender, otherwise you might not make lentil flour.
I prefer to use an electric coffee grinder.

Raw lentil flour tastes very strong pungent, but cooked lentil flour in savory recipes is so delicious. It tastes just like cooked red lentils.

I prefer to use an electric coffee grinder for the best results. But a high-speed blender will work wonderfully.
