"🫘 #Pulses are the future! Do you know why?

#Legumes can fix nitrogen from the air, thanks to a symbiotic relationship with soil bacteria.
This makes their seeds a protein-rich food option, and contributes to their many advantages :

🌍 #Sustainable crops: strengthen the resilience of farming systems while promoting #ClimateChange mitigation and #biodiversity

🫀 Nutritious and healthy: high protein, fiber, vitamin and antioxidant content, low-fat

💰 Low production and buying costs: increase #foodsecurity

🥗 Interesting culinary properties for more fun dishes: colorful, unique flavors and textures

Let’s put more pulses on our plates! 🍽️💚"

#KnowledgeBit: Intercropping with #Pulses increases farm biodiversity and creates a more diverse landscape for animals and insects.

The nitrogen-fixing properties of pulses can improve soil fertility, which improves and extends the productivity of farmland.

Pulses can contribute to #ClimateChange mitigation by reducing dependence on the synthetic fertilizers used to introduce nitrogen artificially into the soil.

@CommonMugwort It was delicious. Thanks very much. I did not use any bicarbonate and the chickpeas were perfectly cooked by not super soft, hjust the way I like them. The onions were a bit sweet and very earthy. A keeper, for sure. Amazing flavour from so few ingredients. What should I call it, besides Artemisia's checkpeas?

Tinned baked beans always been a basic quick feed for “the working poor.”

(“Beaners” “Beanz mean Fartz” and “Lentil Belt” are seldom heard derogatory terms these daze, since more diverse - than “corpse and three veg” - diet became “mainstream” ? )
