Meanings

1. A green lentil of the variety Lens esculenta puyensis.
   • Combined with the high altitude of the valley, this creates the perfect conditions to grow the delicate Puy lentil. Due to these unique growing conditions, the lentil has its own protected designation of origin status – which means that, to use the name ‘Puy lentil’, the product must be grown without any pesticides or irrigation and harvested and packaged in the region of Puy. 2018, Merchant Gourmet, The Pulses & Grains Cookbook: Deliciously nutritious recipes for every day, with lentils, grains, seeds and chestnuts, Hardie Grant Publishing, →ISBN:
