Is le puy lentils (hulled, dried, boiled, drained) low FODMAP?

GOS is amber at 36 g, while GOS and fructans are both red at 185 g. The Le Puy rating changes between the listed 31 g and 36 g servings, so portion size matters even for a modest spoonful. Hulled green lentils are a separate entry with a 29 g green portion.

Le Puy Lentils (Hulled, Dried, Boiled, Drained) and IBS: what to know

Le Puy lentils are often mixed into warm salads or vegetable dishes where each spoonful contains a different amount of lentils. Keep the lentil component measurable if you are using the 31 g reference during a low FODMAP phase. The rating does not establish how a complete salad, its dressing or a larger serving will affect you.

Gut-friendly ways to eat le puy lentils (hulled, dried, boiled, drained)

Match the packet to the Le Puy variety, follow its cooking instructions and drain the lentils before weighing. Add the measured portion to your own plate rather than estimating it from a shared salad. If a recipe retains the cooking water, recognise that it differs from the drained preparation named in this guide.

Frequently asked questions

Are Le Puy lentils the same as the green-lentil entry?

They are listed separately in the app. The green-lentil guide uses 29 g as its green serving, while the Le Puy entry uses 31 g.

Is 31 g a dry serving of Le Puy lentils?

The 31 g serving refers to lentils after boiling and draining. The word dried in the entry identifies their starting form, not when to weigh the portion.

Can I use a lentil pouch instead of dried Le Puy lentils?

Check the pouch's variety, preparation and ingredients. A ready-to-eat pouch with liquid or seasoning is not necessarily the plain boiled, drained Le Puy preparation represented here.
