Lupins, legumes with a long history
Lupins taste like childhood, when they could be found sold at every corner by street vendors. Simple, tasty and indulgent, they are one of the most ancient legumes known to humankind. But, most importantly, they are a great source of protein and dietary fibre.
Lupin beans take us back to ancient flavours, but they also help us to look after our well-being. They promote a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Serving suggestion
Lupin is a tasty and flavourful snack and an indulgent addition to an aperitif.
Once shelled, it is an ideal legume for adding to mixed salads and vegetable soups. It is also an excellent ingredient in soups made with cereals and pasta. It adds the right amount of nutrients to rice and pasta salads. It is a valuable part of the Mediterranean diet.
