Imagine being me when your Indian boss keeps talking at you about how the lentil in your lentils isn't the right lentil. because it isn't split. I don't buy the food!
split, that's the right term. i forgot.
when i was getting into this is when i learned red lentils are brown lentils that have been split (dal). i think.
i used to live near an indian grocery. and not like a tiny one little place, but a serious one the size of like a real suburban grocery store. there was an aisle of just different types of lentils, in more colors than i could count. their spice aisle was unreal too.
that was when i learned that I don't know what i am doing and people from real cultures have forgotten more than ill ever know about the basics of food.
