Turkey is one of the top three global producers of lentils, with most cultivation concentrated in South-East Anatolia, including areas like Mardin, Sanliurfa, and Gaziantep.
Lentils are widely consumed worldwide as a nutritious staple, especially during Easter in many Catholic countries. Seed colours vary from yellow and green to dark brown and orange, depending on the variety.
Rich in protein, B vitamins, and phosphorus, lentils are known for their health benefits. Red lentils, in particular, help lower cholesterol and offer nutrition similar to that of mother's milk.
