Food Grains

Pulses are the seeds of certain plants of the legume family — plants that produce seeds or grains that grow within pods, such as lentils, beans, peas and chickpeas. Pulses are legume crops that are grown for their dry seeds to be used as food or grain.

Pulses are an extremely healthy food due to their high protein content relative to other vegetables. People eat the pulses seeds whole, dehulled or as a flour. Some of these are

• Chickpea/ Bengal Gram/ Garbanzo bean
• Pigeon pea/ Red Gram
• Urad bean/ Black Lentil / Black Gram
• Red Kidney Bean
• Moong Bean/ Green Gram

Both dried and canned kidney beans are available throughout the year. Dried beans are generally available in prepackaged containers as well as in bulk bins.

True to their name, these popular beans are kidney shaped and are especially good in simmered dishes where they absorb the flavors of seasonings and the other foods with which they are cooked.
