Here's a paper bag tread grease and with a wonderful smell of smoked fish. Anya loves her, but nothing unusual in it. And here's the package. Anya looked back and dig up the package the hole, and from there fell flat red peas, like a small coral beads. Anna gently licked the pea - nothing. Maybe it's the spices, well, such as mustard, black pepper, for example? They are bitter and put them in a roast or stew, and it becomes fragrant and even more delicious. - Mom, mom, these peas extraordinary? - Yes, it's lentils. Dishes of lentils was filed by the Babylonian rulers, and Egyptian pharaohs. Lentils eaten by the peasants of Greece and poor patricians. Even Anizy - known rich man and a rake of the times of Augustus left a dish of lentils. - But she's as dry as it is? - Dried fruit, but the plant itself looks like a pea that grows at the grandmother in the garden. The lentils are small beans in the shape of a diamond. Each pod sits at the three peas. The sun warmed the pod, the rain watered it, the lenticels was nice and cozy. They grew and grew, until one day the pod burst open and they rolled out into the bright sunshine. - Mom, if lentils are such an ancient and well known, why then do we never before it is not ready? - This is really amazing. Learn lentils to speak, a lot she could tell us about his fate. Even in the Bible there is a tradition concerning the red lentils. Listen to this. A long time ago, in the seventeenth century BC, there lived two brothers Esau and Jacob. They were twins, but Esau was born first and so the younger brother was in his service. When the children grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter and Jacob was a farmer. One day Esau returned from hunting, trembling from hunger, he begged his younger brother to feed him, and Jacob gave him bread and lentil stew in exchange for Esau gave him the right of seniority. In Russia in medieval times, lentils were also very popular, and she even baked the bread. For many centuries our country was a major producer of lentils in the world. Unfortunately, gradually people have forgotten the lentils. New products, such as potatoes, pasta, supplanted lentils from our tables. But now it is not the price - it gradually again all recognize!
