Uniquely mild and nutty Green Mung Beans
Mung beans also referred to as moong beans or green grams, or golden grams, are round-shaped green beans, light yellow on the inside. They have a slightly sweet and nutty flavor and are traditionally used in both sweet and savory Asian dishes.
Mung beans are an excellent source of dietary fiber, plant protein, carbohydrates, and iron, and are packed with many vitamins and minerals. The mighty mung bean makes an ideal addition to a well-balanced and healthy diet.
Detail
Mung beans for savoury and sweet dishes
Traditionally found in East Asian and Indian cuisines, mung beans cook in no time and are easy to digest. Mung beans are ideal for cooking with vegetables or other grains, stews or soup, or as a filling for pastry and dumplings. Mung beans can even be found in desserts. They can also be ground into mung bean flour or a tasty paste, which, for example, is used in the manufacturing of Asian glass noodles. Mung bean sprouts also make a delicious addition to salads or sandwiches or traditional wok-style dishes.
