Pardinas lentils are the ideal foundation for a pot of classic Lentejas con Chorizo, a favorite hearty stew from Spain. Because our artisan quality lentils are super-dried to preserve their full flavor and retain their shape, they require overnight soaking.
To prepare traditional Lentejas con Chorizo, you will also need some pimentón smoked paprika, some jamón serrano, chorizo, and olive oil. You can find all of these ingredients at La Tienda.
