MUNG BEAN WITH SKIN 12 oz

Mung beans (Vigna radiata) are small, round legumes that are typically light green in color, though they can sometimes appear yellow or brown. These beans are known for their slightly sweet, earthy flavor and soft texture once cooked. The shape of mung beans is oval, and they are about 4-5 mm in length.

Mung beans are commonly consumed in various forms, including whole, split, or sprouted. The whole beans can be cooked in soups, stews, or used to make curries, while the split beans are often used to make dal or bean pastes. When sprouted, mung beans are used in salads, sandwiches, or as a garnish.

In addition to their culinary versatility, mung beans are highly nutritious, packed with protein, fiber, vitamins (like folate and B vitamins), and minerals (such as magnesium and potassium). They are a popular ingredient in many Asian dishes and are valued for their health benefits, including promoting digestion, weight management, and heart health.
