Like flour, sugar,oil and many other things in cooking, lentils are actually a huge variety of legumes. I fortunately live in an area where we have access to cooking materials from all parts of the world. -My point is - you can't just say"lentils" -there are at least 12 kinds and not all the same. Possibly the most common is the 'green lentil' these are the most tasty in my opinion. There are approximately 192 grams of green lentils in a cup. .

No, guinea pigs can't really eat lentils, lentils aren't really part of their diet, so stick with what you give your guinea pigs and give it lots of different fresh foods every day. Guinea pigs don't go well with beans, it could harm them or they could damage their digestive system too.

Approximately correct, but the weight has nearly doubled.

It depends - if you are of Sephardic descent - from Spain, Portugal or North Africa - then yes. If you're from an Ashkenazi background - the rest of Europe - then lentils fall into the category of kitniyot, small things, which have traditionally not been eating during Passover. This tradition stems from the fact that flour can be made from kitniyot, which increases your chances of accidentally consuming chametz or may cause others to believe you are consuming chametz. However, although this tradition has been upheld for many centuries and is supported by most rabbis, it is not based on the Torah and as such many Jews do eat kitniyot during Passover - not least of all because so many people are vegetarian or vegan, and kitniyot are an important source of protein.

Green lentils (the most common kind in north America) almost double their weight when cooked. So 450 gm of cooked Green lentils would have been about 230 grams of dry lentils.

I stored 50 lbs of organic mung beans at Y2K, 12 years ago. They still all sprout and are delicious.

Mine grew after 4 weeks, and just a few days after I put it in real soil in a cup. (It was in some wood chip stuff.) Be sure to water it every day, and give it plenty of light. Mine has been growing a bit more each day, and this is day 5 or 6 for me.

Three-fourths of a cup of lentils would equal 100 grams of lentils. One hundred thirty grams is equal to one cup.

Lentils (dried beans, legumes) are good for us in so many ways. They are high in protein, low in fat, as well as being high in fiber. The high protein and low fat pretty much speaks for itself, but as for lentils being high in fiber, there are so many things about this that is so beneficial to the body, that it warrants further elaboration. Fiber helps aid the body's digestive process, and relieves constipation, which in itself can help prevent intestinal disease, such as colon cancer, as well as other diseases. Fiber also helps lower cholesterol, which can greatly reduce a person's chance of stroke and heart attack, just to name a couple. Few foods are naturally low in fat, high in protein, and high in fiber as lentils are. And, they are also one of the least expensive foods you can buy, and there are so many ways to prepare them. For example: red beans in 'cajun' red beans and rice, black beans in Mexican or Tex/Mex food, navy beans in navy bean and ham soup, just to name a few. The ways in which lentils can be prepared are limited only by your imagination. And they can also be added to many dishes that have beef or chicken to stretch the number of servings, thereby saving you money on some of your favorite recipies.

Not necessary with lentils; just rinse and drain them, then simmer them on low-medium heat for about 30-45 minutes or until soft. Make sure to add water or chicken broth as necessary so they don't dry out and burn. Dried beans, on the other hand, should be soaked overnight before cooking.

Yes, but you may need to modify the cooking time depending how it is used in the recipe. Brown lentils cook in about 20 mins while green take 45.

1 cup dried yields approximately 2 cups cooked, so 1/2 cup dried makes 1 cup cooked

It is a symbol of good luck. The lentils resemble coins when cooked, and coins represent money and good fortune. It is a common tradition in Italy and Brazil. It is thought that if you eat these lentils, you will inherit wealth and prosperity for the upcoming year.
